Such a cute idea 🥹

Pet of the Week: Gus 😍

Gorgeous Gus is a broken coat Jack Russell. His dad George tells us:

He was the runt of the litter and stood out for his predominantly brown coat. After 9 years he still looks like a puppy and we're no closer to finding his "off switch". Nevertheless, we wouldn't change him for the world."

What a cutie! Thanks to George for sharing this beautiful photo with us 🐾

Pet of the Week: Moose ❤️

According to Moose's mum Erin "Moose is sweet with a bit of sass. He is growing into a giant, loveable goofball. He has those puppy dog eyes down pat! Moose loves his cat sister, Stella and cuddling up on the couch with his humans. We’re all having the best time of ours lives!"

Those are some of the cutest puppy dog eyes we've ever seen 😍 Thanks to Erin for sharing this adorable photo with us!

Pet of the Week: Bailey 🐾
Beautiful Bailey is an 10 year old Golden Retriever. His mum Joanne tells us:
"Bailey is 11 years old at Christmas and has been the best dog ever. He goes everywhere with us and just loves life. This was him a couple of months ago enjoying a trip to Canberra. He has been with Bow Wow Meow since he was a pup! Bow Wow has always made sure he has been looked after when his had to attend the vets."

We are so grateful to help Joanne care for Bailey. What a gorgeous boy! Thanks so much to Joanne for haring these gorgeous photos with us 😍

Pet of the Week: Coco 😍

Coco is a miniature dachshund born on the 11th of October 2023. Her mum tells us:
"Coco loves everybody she meets and especially loves my granddaughter Scarlett who is two years old. They are inseparable. Coco loves her toys and chasing a ball. She's very intelligent, learning tricks all the time. She is funny with a cute personality and gives me the side eye all the time.
She loves a walk and every one she comes across stops to pat her. She thinks she is bigger than she is, barking at big dogs with no fear. I got her for my birthday last November and love her dearly."

Coco looks great in her free Bow Wow Meow Pet ID tag! Thanks to Jenny for sharing coco's photos and story with us, and Happy belated Birthday Coco ❤️

All Bow Wow Meow policy holders are entitled to a free personalised pet ID tag and 1 replacement tag per policy period if your tag is lost or your details have changed.

Please be aware of the dangers of snake bites!

🚨**ALERT**🚨

🐍 Please be aware that snake encounters are once again becoming more frequent as the weather begins to warm up in many parts of Australia. All bites (including suspected bites) should be regarded as life-threatening.

Signs of a snake bite in pets include:

☠️ Sudden weakness or collapse, which may be followed by transient improvement
☠️ Vomiting
☠️ Laboured breathing
☠️ Paralysis, starting with the hind legs
☠️ Loss of bladder and bowel control
☠️ Shaking or twitching of the muscles
☠️ Blood in the urine

Snake bites are a time critical emergency and if your dog or cat has been bitten by a snake, immediate veterinary assessment is recommended in all cases. It is vital that you keep your pet calm and as still as possible. Try to limit any movement (including walking) where possible and transport them to your nearest veterinary practice immediately, even if they look well. If possible, the veterinary clinic should be phoned to alert them that you are on the way. The sooner your pet is treated, the better their chances of survival.

❌ DO NOT try to catch or kill the snake for ID or for any other purpose
❌ DO NOT apply a tourniquet
❌ DO NOT wash the bite site
❌ DO NOT cut, suck or apply any other treatments to the bite-site

Whilst veterinary treatment of snakebite can be lifesaving, it can be very costly in many cases. This is especially true if antivenom is required or if secondary complications from the bite occur. Pet insurance provides peace of mind and protection in the event that your pet is ever bitten. Our platinum sponsor Bow Wow Meow Pet Insurance are currently offering two months free pet insurance in the first year of coverage for Animal Poison Helpline followers. Visit https://bowwowinsurance.com.au/poisons/ and enter AP368 at checkout to take advantage of this offer.

Did you know that caterpillars can be dangerous for your pets?! 🐛🙀

🐛 The Animal Poisons Helpline is occasionally contacted about pets that have mouthed or ingested caterpillars. Most problems that arise from these exposures are due to the tiny hairs (setae), spines, or quills that may be covering a caterpillar's body. These hairs or spines are connected to glands that can produce a toxin. As part of the caterpillar’s defence strategy, when animals come into contact with these stinging hairs or spines, they can break off into the skin, releasing a tiny dose of toxin in the process. Doratifera vulnerans, more commonly known as the Australian cup moth, is a common culprit of caterpillar envenomations in Australia. Doratifera vulnerans, which translates to “bearer of painful gifts”, produce larvae which are endowed with dozens of spines laced with a highly potent venom. Found along Australia’s east coast, including in Sydney, Canberra and Brisbane, the spines of this caterpillar are retracted at rest and everted when the animal is disturbed.

Many syndromes have been described from caterpillar exposures, most commonly following ingestion or mouthing by companion animals. Such exposures may result in drooling, difficulty swallowing and irritation of the lips and mouth. These effects are highly variable in severity and all appear to occur secondary to embedded caterpillar hairs. In severe cases, caterpillar exposures can result in allergic reactions including anaphylaxis which may be life threatening without veterinary intervention. Spontaneous abortions have also been documented in mares ingesting certain types of caterpillars.

As a general rule, brightly coloured caterpillars with spines, bristles, or a fuzzy appearance might be venomous. The Animal Poisons Helpline can be useful in these cases and can provide an immediate risk assessment to determine if veterinary assessment is required or if home management may be appropriate.

The Animal Poisons Helpline provides free advice to pet owners in Australia and can be reached on ☎️1300 869 738 (AU) or 0800 869 738 (NZ). If you are a member of a veterinary team in Australia or New Zealand, you can join the Animal Poisons Centre For Vets Facebook group which is regularly updated with toxicology tidbits and poisoning trends. We thank the Western Australian Department of Primary Industries and Regional Development for supporting this post.
