Isnโ€™t this the best crinkly velvet nose?!๐Ÿ’›

โ€œHoneyโ€ came in to see Dr Nick for her desexing procedure last week and at 48kg, she was the biggest teddy bear weโ€™ve had the pleasure of caring for, in a while!

She popped back in yesterday for her post-op check-up and earned top marks for her recovery. Go, Honey! ๐Ÿพโญ๏ธ

Patient of the Week: Cookie! ๐Ÿช๐Ÿฆทโœจ

Little Cookie came in for a Stage 1 dental - the earliest stage of dental disease and the perfect time to step in with a professional clean! ๐Ÿ’š

Catching dental issues this early helps prevent pain, infection and the need for extractions later on. Regular check-ups and cleans remove plaque and tartar before they can cause damage, keeping your petโ€™s mouth healthy and their smile bright.

Healthy teeth = a happier Cookie! ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿถ๐Ÿ’™

Our boy Bailey โ€” the receptionist everyone loves and adores (and yesโ€ฆ he absolutely gets paid in treats ๐Ÿช๐Ÿ˜†) โ€” has been entered into a special competition by his mum Holly, and he needs your votes to help him win! ๐Ÿพ๐Ÿ’™

And the best part?
By voting, YOU also go into the draw to win a $500 photography session for your own pooch! ๐Ÿ“ธ๐Ÿถ

Letโ€™s rally together and show our favourite treat-paid receptionist some love!
๐Ÿงก๐Ÿ• Thank you to everyone who supports our clinic family โ€” we appreciate you!

This weeks bravery award, Whiskey ๐Ÿฅƒ

Whiskey came into the clinic after being a little off for a few days. Her owners noticed she was wobbly on her back legs and struggling to control her tongue โ€” not her usual self at all!

Living on a property where ticks and snakes are common, we ran blood tests to rule out a snake bite. She passed with flying colours, so we suspected a tick was the culprit. Whiskey was admitted for tick treatment (and a funky new haircut to help us search for the little sucker!).

No tick was found, but once a tick has had its fill and caused damage, it will often detach and fall off โ€” which was likely the case for Whiskey. Thankfully, she responded beautifully to treatment and made a remarkable recovery. She headed home to her family much brighter, happier, and far steadier on her paws! ๐Ÿ’›๐Ÿพ

โš ๏ธ Tick paralysis can be life-threatening.
Common signs to look out for include:
๐Ÿพ Wobbliness or weakness (especially in the back legs)
๐Ÿพ Difficulty swallowing or a change in bark/meow
๐Ÿพ Excessive drooling
๐Ÿพ Vomiting or gagging
๐Ÿพ Trouble breathing

๐Ÿ›ก๏ธ Prevention is key!
โœ”๏ธ Use regular tick prevention products recommended by your vet
โœ”๏ธ Check your pets daily โ€” especially around the head, neck, and under the collar
โœ”๏ธ Keep grass and bushes trimmed
โœ”๏ธ Seek veterinary care immediately if you notice any signs of tick paralysis

Weโ€™re so glad Whiskey made such a strong recovery โ€” a great reminder of how quickly tick paralysis can strike, and how important early treatment and prevention are! ๐ŸŒฟ๐Ÿ’š

๐Ÿ’ช Meet one strong little guy โ€” Zoid ๐Ÿ’ช

This brave boy gave us quite a scare. It all started when Zoid began urinating in unusual places, but things quickly took a turn for the worse โ€” he became lethargic, hid away, stopped eating, and then stopped passing urine altogether.

By the time he arrived at the clinic, Zoid was collapsed and in critical condition. Our team jumped straight into action to unblock his urethra, stabilise his dangerously high potassium levels, and provide warming and oxygen therapy to help him fight his way back.

It was very much touch and go for a while, but this little guy wasnโ€™t ready to give up. Hour by hour, Zoid started showing signs of improvement โ€” and by the end of the day, we were greeted with tiny biscuit-making paws and gentle head boops. ๐Ÿฅน๐Ÿ’›

๐Ÿšจ Urinary blockages are an emergency, especially in male cats.
They can be life-threatening within hours and are sometimes mistaken for constipation.

If your cat is:
๐Ÿพ Straining to urinate
๐Ÿพ Crying or showing pain in the litter box
๐Ÿพ Passing little or no urine
๐Ÿพ Licking their ge****ls excessively
๐Ÿพ Acting off, hiding, or not eating

Please donโ€™t wait โ€” contact your vet immediately.
Early treatment can truly make the difference between life and death. โค๏ธโ€๐Ÿฉน

Just a friendly reminder โ€” keep those chocolates, lollies, and decorations out of pawโ€™s reach so your pets can enjoy a fright-free night too. ๐Ÿฆดโœจ

๐Ÿฐ Say hello to Whitney & Charlotte! ๐Ÿฐ

These two beautiful bunnies were found abandoned and alone in a reserve โ€” but their story is taking a much happier turn. ๐Ÿ’•

Now safe in care, Whitney and Charlotte have been desexed, microchipped, and vaccinated, and theyโ€™re ready to hop into loving forever homes! ๐Ÿก

๐Ÿฅฌ Charlotte is the more laid-back of the two โ€” she loves her veggies, enjoys lounging around, and happily explores the clinic when her space is being cleaned. Sheโ€™s not exactly a cuddle bug, but she doesnโ€™t mind a gentle pat or two.

โœจ Whitney also loves her veggies, but sheโ€™s got a little more sass! Sheโ€™s confident, curious, and loves to explore โ€” though she prefers to keep the pats to a minimum. A true independent woman. ๐Ÿ’…

If youโ€™re looking for a pair of adorable bunnies to brighten your life (and your veggie drawer!), these two might just be the perfect match. ๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿ‡

๐ŸŽฌ This vs That: Part 2 โ€“ What Vets Do vs What Nurses Do (and everything in between!) ๐Ÿพ

๐Ÿ‘ฉโ€โš•๏ธ Vets: Diagnosing, prescribing, performing surgery, saving lives.
๐Ÿ•โ€๐Ÿฆบ Nurses: Holding paws, cleaning up (everything ๐Ÿ˜…), monitoring patients, giving meds, cuddles, reassurance, and keeping the whole clinic running!

โœจ It takes both to make the magic happen โ€” and somewhere in between are the snacks, teamwork, and endless love for our patients. ๐Ÿ’š

Because when it comes to caring for your pets, weโ€™re all in it together ๐Ÿถ๐Ÿฑ
