🌈Euthanasia 🌈

Understanding the Euthanasia Process:

Saying goodbye to our beloved pets is one of the hardest decisions we may ever have to make. Euthanasia, or putting an animal to sleep, is a humane and compassionate process to end their suffering when they are facing severe illness, injury, or a significant decline in quality of life.

Here’s what to expect during the process:

- A veterinarian will discuss your pet's condition, prognosis, and the options available. This helps in making an informed decision.

- We will then go through a series of paper work detailing the procedure and the chosen aftercare. You can choose how you wish to handle your pet's remains, with options like cremation (through Pet Heaven), home burial, JCU Donation and Council burial.

- An IV cannula will be placed into one of their limbs (this will either be done in the room or out the back).

- When it is time to say goodbye a medication is then given that gently and painlessly stops the heart.

- When you are ready to leave, we will come in and take paw prints & a fur clip. (This can be taken home/ collected in a few days or sent in the mail- Please let us know your preference).

It's a deeply personal and emotional time, but know that euthanasia is a loving decision to end suffering and offer peace. We can provide support and guidance throughout the process. 💔🐾

If you have questions or need support, don't hesitate to reach out to our professional staff. Below are link's from our website on How will I know its time & Quality of life assessment.

🌍🐾 Traveling with Pets 🐾🌍

Taking your furry friends along on your travels can be an incredibly rewarding experience! Here are a few tips to make the journey smoother for all of you.
If you have other tips we haven't shared please share your travel tips below for others to try! 🐶🐱

1. Plan Ahead: Research pet-friendly accommodations and destinations.

2. Pack Essentials: Don't forget food, water, toys, and a comfy bed. We recommend making this new environment feel like home. By bringing blankets, a bed and toys, that they are familiar with to make them feel more comforted. These items can help make your pet feel more relaxed and at ease, so you can too. 🧸⚽️

3. Health First: Visit the vet for a check-up and ensure Vaccinations, Heartworm prevention, Flea and Tick prevention, Intestinal worming and Microchip/ ID tags are up to date. 🩺💉💊
* Calming products are available if required, talk with your vet during their health consultation.

4. Safety Matters: Use a pet carrier or seatbelt harness in the car. The harness should be fitted well. Having the harness slip off in the event of a sudden stop puts you and your pet at risk of injury.
Ensure your pet has the space needed to sit down comfortably in the car, without wandering over the backseat. 🚙

5. Take Breaks: Regular stops for bathroom breaks and stretching are crucial.
Ensure they have fresh water and have plenty of fresh air (open the windows or an air vent) also remember that pets have sensitive hearing so limit loud music while travelling.

Name: Rebekah (Bek)

Position/role: Veterinarian

How long have you been at Hammett St Vets for? 4.5 years

What attracted you to the industry/organisation? My love for all things medical and animals 💕. I love being able to form relationships with my patients and clients to keep their fur babies happy and healthy 🥰🐾

What pets do you have at home? 2 Doggos 🐶🐶. An 11-year-old Lhasa Apso X (Koda) & 2-year-old Siberian Husky (Korra). I also have 2 snakes, a water python and a spotted python 🐍

Medical or surgical: LOVE being in surgery! But I also enjoy working up complicated medical cases and solving the puzzle of what's going on 🤔.

What's your favourite snack for on the go? Cheese and Biccies! 🧀🍪 and anything else savory 😋

If you were a cat/dog, what breed and why? Any small fluffy dog breed 😍. To be an inside (mostly) dog with free-range to relax all day every day on the couch would be the life. They're also the absolute cutest and best to cuddle up to 🥰.

An interesting fact about you: I use to do competitive dance & cheerleading 🤸‍♀️

Most embarrassing thing you have done at work: Trying to restrain a large dog patient for blood collection - ended up being taken for a ride and arse up on the ground 🙃. I also trip over everything constantly 😅

🐾 The Importance of Fasting Animals Before Surgery🐾

Hey pet parents! 🐶🐱

Did you know that fasting your furry friends before a surgical procedure is crucial for their safety? 🏥 Here's why:

1. Prevents Aspiration: Fasting reduces the risk of your pet vomiting during anesthesia, which can lead to serious complications like aspiration pneumonia.

2. Reduces Nausea: An empty stomach helps minimize post-operative nausea and vomiting, ensuring a smoother recovery for your pet.

3. Accurate Diagnostics: Fasting can help provide more accurate blood test results, which are essential for a successful surgery.

4. Safety First: Anesthetics can cause the stomach to relax, making it easier for food to move into the throat and be inhaled. Fasting helps prevent this.

For most pets, fasting usually means no food for 12 hours before surgery and no water for 2-4 hours before. Always follow our instructions. Let’s keep our pets safe and healthy! 🐾❤️

We would like to discuss abuse in the Veterinary Clinic.

Did you know ❓🤔- Veterinarians have almost four times the su***de rate of the Australian population.

We strive to provide excellent care to you and your furry family members. Unfortunately, we experience verbal abuse directed at our team both over the phone and in clinic. This behaviour is not acceptable in any circumstance.

Our staff often work long hours, face emotional challenges, and navigate complex medical situations to ensure your animals receive the best care possible. It is essential that you show us the respect and gratitude we deserve.

We understand that there are stressful times, but we ask that you communicate with our staff respectfully. We are all highly trained professionals.

A little kindness goes a long way in making our challenging jobs just a bit easier.
Let's spread positivity 🐾❤️

🐍 Pet Of The Week! 🐍

Everybody meet Pedro the 12-year-old Carpet Python. 💚

Pedro visited Dr Max this week for a new lump check that had popped up over the last few weeks. Upon examination the lump appears most likely benign and is currently not causing any discomfort. Pedro's owner is going to monitor closely over the next few months to ensure it doesn't get any bigger or impede Pedro's mobility - if so Pedro's lump will need to be surgically removed. Watch this space 🔪😁

🪱 Hookworm 🪱

Hookworms are a zoonotic parasite that we see quite commonly at Hammett Street Vets 😞🪱. These worms feed from blood within the intestines, leading to a significant anaemia that can be fatal (esp. in young puppies). Infected puppies commonly present with pale gums, general weakness/lethargy, and may or may not have diarrhoea.

🐾 Transmission:
These worms thrive in warm, moist, often dirty environments. However, there are several ways for a pet to become infected:
* Faecal-oral route (ingestion of contaminated material - e.g. dirt, prey, rodents)
* Percutaneous (the worm penetrates through the pets skin that is in contact with the ground)
* Trans-mammary & in-utero (young puppies drink mums infected milk or are infected before birth!)
NOTE: It is also important to note that we humans can also get hookworm through these methods!

🐾 Prevention and Control
Treatment involves repeated deworming with one of several products 💊. In some hookworm cases, simply killing the worms will not be enough, with the patient also requiring hospitalisation and blood transfusion🩸.

Efforts to control hookworm infestations focus on improving hygiene within the environment and administering regular worming treatments.

If you are unsure on your animals worming status please call the girls on (07) 4725 7691. Please note: Puppies should be wormed every 2 weeks until they are 12 weeks old and then every month until they are 6 months old.

Pictured: Gums of a puppy with hookworm and the eggs under the microscope.

🌍🐾 Today is World Zoonoses Day! 🐾🌍

Every year on July 6th, we raise awareness about zoonotic diseases—those that can be transmitted between animals and humans. This day commemorates the historic first vaccination against rabies by Louis Pasteur in 1885, a groundbreaking moment in the fight against zoonotic diseases. 🐶🐱🧍‍♀️🧍

Zoonotic diseases Rabies, Leptospirosis, Ebola, Hendra and COVID-19 (to name a few), reminding us of the critical connection between animal health, human health, and our environment. By understanding and preventing these diseases, we can protect both ourselves and our animal friends. 💉

Let's commit to supporting initiatives that promote hygiene, vaccination, and responsible animal care. Together, we can create a healthier, safer world for all species.🌱🩺🐕

✨Pet of the week ✨

Everyone meet Molly the 4-year-old Jack Russell! 🐾
Molly first presented to see Dr Max after her owners noticed her having some difficulty urinating. Molly was constantly straining and would make very frequent attempts to urinate with little success😞. After some further diagnostics, Molly was soon diagnosed with a MASSIVE bladder stone! 😲🫣

Molly was booked in for surgery, with Dr Rebekah performing the cystotomy procedure to remove the stone🔪. Look at the size of it😬😮! Molly was incredibly brave throughout the entire process, even wanting belly rubs & cuddles straight after surgery 🥰.

After some much needed rest & recovery at home, we had the pleasure of seeing Molly again this week for her post-op check. Molly is doing very well and is back to her normal happy self 😄❤️.
