🐾 Vegas’ Dental Journey – A Tailored Approach for a Senior Cat ✨

Meet Vegas, a 15-year-old feline who recently visited Allambie Vet for a dental procedure with extractions. Given his heart murmur, kidney disease, and hyperthyroidism, we took extra precautions to ensure his safety every step of the way. ❤️

💡 Why Vegas’ Dental Care Was Different:

✅ Pre-Anaesthetic Heart Check – Before his procedure, Dr. Jane rechecked his heart to ensure it was safe for anaesthesia. Some pets may need medications first or may not be suitable for anaesthesia, which is why pre-op heart checks are crucial.

✅ Advanced Anaesthetic Monitoring – Vegas’ anaesthesia was closely tracked by Nurse Alex using our multi-parameter monitors, measuring:
✔ Heart rate and (ECG) 💓
✔ Oxygen levels (SpO2) 🫁
✔ Blood pressure 🔍
✔ Carbon dioxide levels (ETCO2)

✅ State-of-the-Art Anaesthetic Equipment – Our advanced machines ensured precise oxygenation & ventilation, reducing risks and ensuring a safe recovery.

✅ Dental X-rays & Nerve Blocks – X-rays revealed hidden resorptive lesions, and nerve blocks kept Vegas comfortable post-op.

✅ Smooth Recovery – Thanks to pain management & careful monitoring, Vegas was soon enjoying a small meal comfortably. 😻

💙 Senior pets need extra care, and we provide it at the highest level.

💬 Has your pet had a dental check recently? Dental disease isn’t always obvious, but regular checks can prevent pain and serious health issues. 🦷✨

🐶💓 Heart Murmurs in Pets – Bella’s Story 💓🐶

Meet Bella, a beautiful 6-year-old Cavoodle, who recently came in for her annual health check. During her exam, Dr. Louise detected a heart murmur, so we recommended a heart ultrasound (echocardiogram) to assess her heart health.

📸 Here’s Dr. Jane Vine performing Bella’s echocardiogram, a non-invasive test that provides precise measurements to properly stage heart disease. While listening to the heart can help detect a murmur, the only way to accurately assess heart size, function, and disease progression is through ultrasound.

💙 Understanding Heart Disease Stages

The American College of Veterinary Internal Medicine (ACVIM) classifies heart disease into four stages:
🔹 Stage A – At risk but no heart changes.
🔹 Stage B1 – Murmur present but no heart enlargement.
🔹 Stage B2 – Heart enlargement detected but no signs of heart failure.
🔹 Stage C & D – Congestive heart failure with clinical symptoms.

It’s critical to differentiate Stage B1 from B2, as treatment effectiveness varies greatly between these stages. Echocardiography (heart ultrasound) is the only way to determine this.

💊 Does a heart murmur always require treatment?

Not necessarily. What’s most important is understanding the underlying cause. Some pets don’t need immediate treatment, while others benefit from early intervention.

Research shows that starting heart medication at the right stage (such as when heart enlargement is detected) can delay congestive heart failure by up to 15 months in dogs.

🐾 If your pet has been diagnosed with a heart murmur or if you’d like to check their heart health, our experienced vets are here to help. We also have a Specialist Cardiologist, Dr. Damon Leeder, available for our patients, with echocardiograms performed at Allambie Vet 🩷❤️🧡💛💚🩵💙💜

🌟 Attention Rabbit Owners 🐇

The RHDV1-K5 Wild Rabbit Control Program will commence in the Greater Sydney area, in the first week of March 2025. This program involves releasing the Rabbit Haemorrhagic Disease Virus (RHDV1-K5), which can affect both wild and pet rabbits.

This fatal virus impacts unvaccinated rabbits, and even indoor rabbits are at risk, as insects can spread the disease.

To protect your furry friends, we strongly recommend vaccinating your pet rabbits as soon as possible to ensure their immunity before the release.

👉 Book your rabbit’s vaccination appointment online via our website or click the link in our bio. www.allambievet.com.au

Let’s keep your rabbits safe and healthy. 💕

🐾 Meet Our Last Kitten Waiting for a Forever Home 🐾

This handsome little man is still at Allambie Vet, hoping to find his loving family. 💕

He came to us as a shy stray alongside his sister, who has since been adopted and is thriving in her new home. Over time, he has come out of his shell and is now ready to bring joy to a special family.

When he first arrived, he was a bit unwell with Cat Flu, a common feline illness. But don’t worry—he’s fully recovered and ready to live a long and happy life.

✨ Adoption Fee Includes:
• Desexing
• Vaccinations
• Microchipping
• Comprehensive parasite treatment (fleas, ticks & worms)

🎆 Fireworks Safety for Your Pets🎆
While fireworks are a source of celebration for us, they can be overwhelming for our pets. Here are some tips to help keep your pets safe and comfortable as we ring in the New Year:

🌟 ID Tags & Microchips
Ensure your pet’s ID tag and microchip details are up to date, so they can be reunited with you quickly if they escape.

🏠 Keep Them Secure Indoors
Create a safe indoor space where your pet can retreat. Secure windows, doors, and fences to prevent escapes.

🎶 Soften the Noise
Drown out the loud bangs with calming music, white noise, or the TV. Close windows and curtains to reduce the impact of bright flashes and sounds.

🛋️ Create a Safe Haven
Allow your pet access to their favorite hiding spots and make them as comfortable as possible. If they seek your company, offer gentle reassurance.

💊 Support with Calming Aids or Medication
Products like Adaptil or Zylkene can help ease anxiety, but for pets with severe noise phobias, speak to our team about medication options.

🥗 Watch Their Diet
Keep festive treats and alcohol out of reach, as these can be toxic to pets.

🎇 Let’s make this New Year’s Eve stress-free and safe for your pets. If you have concerns about your pet’s anxiety, our team is here to help.

🎄✨ Merry Christmas from Allambie Vet ✨🎄

Christmas is a time for joy, family, and creating special memories – and that includes our furry family members. While you celebrate, don’t forget to keep your pets safe from festive hazards:

🎁 Decorations: Tinsel, ribbons, and ornaments may look fun, but they can cause serious health issues if swallowed. Keep them up, up, and away.

🎁 Chocolate gifts: Don’t leave chocolate-based treats under the tree – they can be toxic for pets.

🎁 Festive foods: Mince pies, fruit cake, wine, and anything containing sultanas, grapes, raisins, or currants can cause renal failure if consumed.

🎁 Human food dangers: Christmas ham, pork, or anything high in fat can lead to pancreatitis in pets – a painful condition requiring intensive care.

🎁 Hot weather: Dogs die in hot cars! Avoid exercising your dog during the hottest part of the day, check the ground for heat before walking, and keep brachycephalic breeds cool and supervised.

🎁 Dangerous foods: Stone fruits, macadamia nuts, onions, garlic, and caffeine are all off-limits for pets.

🎁 Medications: If the celebrations have been a bit too merry, ensure panadol and nurofen are stored out of reach of curious paws.

We’d love to see how you’re celebrating Christmas with your pets. 🎅🐾 Share your festive photos with us in the comments – whether it’s your dog in a Christmas hat, your cat napping under the tree, or your bunny enjoying a special treat.

Thank you for trusting us with your beloved pets this year. Wishing you all a safe and joyful holiday season.

My kids are all grown up and moved out, now I’m looking for a home of my own 🐱💗

Our gorgeous Mumcat came to Allambie Vet as a stray with 4 young kittens in tow. She has been a wonderful mum and now deserves a loving home for herself. We estimate she is around 1-2 years old.

With striking dark tortoiseshell colours and piercing eyes, she is a beautiful cat with a matching tortie personality. This means she loves attention - but on her own terms. We would recommend she goes to an owner that has had cats before, and can understand her quirks.

Mumcat (this name can most definitely be left behind at her new home) is desexed, microchipped, vaccinated and covered for parasites including worms, fleas and ticks.

Please give the clinic a call on 9905 0505 to ask any questions or book a meet and greet.

Allambie Vet is in the thick of kitten season and we have 3 more cuties ready to go to loving homes.

We have a brother and sister pair, that came in together as very shy little strays. They have really come out of their shells here but can still be a little unsure in new situations. Because of this, they could go to their new homes separately but would also thrive in a home together.

On arrival, both were a bit unwell with Cat Flu, a very common cat illness. They have since completely recovered, and this should have minimal impact on the rest of their long lives.

We also have a little black and white female from a different litter awaiting her forever family too. She is a sweet and gentle soul with a funny personality.

Their adoption fee covers desexing, vaccinations, microchipping and parasite treatment covering fleas, ticks and worms.

If you have questions or to book a meet and greet please call Allambie Vet on 9905 0505.

Allambie Vet has 2 gorgeous little kittens looking for their new homes.

😼Our black and white girl is full of beans, always playing and looking for the next adventure.

😽Our little tabby girl has the cutest white feet and is a little more relaxed than her siblings, sometimes she prefers to watch the wrestling than join in.

They are around 8 weeks old, and are ready to go to their new families. Their adoption fee covers vaccinations, microchipping, desexing and they will go to their new home covered for fleas, ticks and worms.

Please call the clinic on 9905 0505 with any questions or to arrange a time to come and meet our cheeky trio.

PS - they also have a very lovely mum who will be available for adoption soon. If you are looking for an older kitty companion please also enquire.

☀️ Heatwave Alert: Keep Your Pets Safe☀️

A heatwave is here, with temperatures expected to soar. Let’s not forget about our furry pets they feel the heat just as much as we do.

How to Keep Your Pets Cool & Comfortable:
💧 Stay Indoors: Keep pets inside in a cool, shaded area. If you have air conditioning or fans, they’ll love it as much as you do!
💧 Hydration is Key: Make sure they have access to fresh, cool water at all times. Adding ice cubes can be a nice touch.
💧 Skip the Car Rides: Avoid unnecessary trips and never leave pets in a car—even for a short time.
💧 Cooling Tricks: Use damp towels, cooling mats, or lightly mist your pet with water to help lower their temperature.
💧 Frozen Treats: Freeze their favorite snacks for a refreshing treat.

Special Care for Tick Paralysis Patients
Pets recovering from tick paralysis struggle to regulate their body temperature. Keep them extra cool, calm, and stress-free, and contact us if you have concerns.

🐾 No Hot Pavement or Exercise

❌ Avoid outdoor activities during the heat. The roads and footpaths can burn your pet’s paw pads.
✅ Early mornings or late evenings are safer for walks—but keep them short and light.

Know the Signs of Heat Stroke:
🐶 Excessive panting, drooling, or restlessness
🐶 Bright red tongue or gums
🐶 Vomiting, diarrhea, or weakness
🐶 Collapse, tremors, or seizures

Heat stroke is an emergency and can be fatal. If you notice these symptoms, call us immediately.
