🧡 Leo’s Little Lump 🐱
Meet Leo, a 7-year-old Scottish Fold who recently came in for removal of a lump. While any lump can be worrying, Leo’s story is a great reminder that not all lumps are dangerous—but they do deserve attention.

The lump was surgically removed by Dr. Craig under a short general anaesthetic. Leo handled the procedure like a champ, and we’re happy to share that his recovery has gone beautifully—the site has healed well, and he’s now back to his usual routine! 🐾

The histopathology results confirmed the lump was a Trichoblastoma—a slow-growing, benign skin tumour that arises from hair follicle cells. These are typically non-cancerous and don’t spread, but surgical removal is still the best course to avoid complications or discomfort.

We’re so glad Leo is back to living his best life! 😺

We will be collecting old sheets, towels and linen to be delivered to Dhil’um-bar Kangaroo Sanctuary
If you have any linen you could donate, please feel free to drop it off to Chancellor Park Veterinary Surgery
The sanctuary work tirelessly to care for our local wildlife, and your donatins will make a difference ❤️ 🦘

Can you spare some old sheets?

We’re putting out a call for donations of flat sheets (double size or larger). At Dhil’um-bar Kangaroo Sanctuary, we use sheets to line every one of our hospital enclosures, and with patients in care we need to change them at least once a day.

If you’ve got old sheets tucked away in the cupboard, we can give them a second life helping sick, injured, and orphaned kangaroos. Every single sheet makes a difference to the comfort and hygiene of our patients.

Donations can be dropped off to one of our volunteers or get in touch with us to discuss other ideas. Thank you so much for helping us give these beautiful animals the best care possible.

Meet Mika, a 7-year-old Boxer who recently visited us for treatment of gingival hyperplasia—a condition where the gum tissue overgrows, covering parts of the teeth. 🦷

This condition is common in Boxers, but can occur in any breed. It’s often a response to plaque and calculus buildup, and can cause the gums to become inflamed, swollen, and painful—making it uncomfortable to eat, chew, or even yawn. In some cases, the overgrown tissue can trap bacteria and food debris, increasing the risk of periodontal disease.

Dr. Maddy carefully removed the excess gum tissue and gave Mika a thorough scale and polish to clean her teeth and reduce future irritation. Not only does this improve comfort, but it helps prevent further dental disease. Swipe for the before and after photos 🪥

Mika handled the procedure like a pro and is now feeling much more comfortable—with a healthier mouth and a sparkling smile to show for it! 😄🐶

🐾 Meet Lola & Maycee – the sweetest Cavoodle mum and daughter duo!
These two came in for their desexing procedures recently, with Lola also needing a little extra care for a hernia repair.

🩺 Hernias in dogs happen when there’s a small tear or opening in the muscle wall, allowing tissue (sometimes fat or organs) to push through. They’re often found near the belly button (umbilical hernias) and can be congenital or caused by trauma. Thankfully, they’re usually easily treated with surgery — especially when caught early, just like in Lola’s case!

Opie’s Early Warning Signs Saved the Day! 🐱
Handsome Opie came to us after his owners noticed he was straining to urinate — a small sign that can signal a big problem in male cats.

After a careful exam, Dr Sophie found a very firm and full bladder that was also very painful. She placed a urinary catheter under sedation to empty the bladder. The culprit? Crystals in the urine, which had caused a painful urethral blockage.

💡 Urinary blockages in male cats are emergencies — they can happen fast and become life-threatening without prompt treatment. Common causes include urinary crystals, inflammation, and even stress. Thankfully, Opie’s family acted quickly!

His bladder was flushed to remove as many crystals as possible, and he’s now on a special urinary diet — Hill’s Prescription C/D. This food helps dissolve existing crystals and prevents new ones from forming by managing urine pH and reducing mineral buildup. 🐾

We’re thrilled to report Opie came in for a check-up today and is peeing like a champ — plus, he’s loving his new food. Go Opie! 💙
