💉Dog and Cat vaccinations are important 💉

Regular vaccinations enables our four legged pets to stay healthy and strong throughout their lifetime.

🐶🐱 Puppy and kittens require a vaccination schedule usually of 2-3 vaccinations over a few months. After puppy and kitten vaccinations, vaccinations are to be given routinely every year!

For any animals going into boarding, most boarding facilities require up to date vaccinations and proof of vaccination. So ensure you bring in your pets vaccination booklet ready for the vets to fill out 📝

🐰We also stock vaccinations for rabbits

To find out more information or to book your pet in for vaccinations please call and speak to the nurses on 8645 9926.

🔓Open 8-6pm weekdays and 9-5pm weekends.

‼️ Microchipping ‼️
Microchipping your pets is extremely important and is a legal requirement. A microchip is a small rice sized device that is placed under the skin between your pets shoulders.
This device holds important information about the pet and its owner. This makes it easy for a lost pet to be scanned and contact made with its owner to ensure a safe return home! Once a microchip is registered, all details on the microchip can only be accessed by a council or vet member.
🚨It is important to ensure that all details are kept up to date

☀️🥵 With the weather deciding to warm up over the next couple of days it is inportant to remember that our furry friends feel the heat too

1. Where possible keep your pets inside or in a cool shaded area

2. Ensure there are multiple water bowls available

3. Avoid walking your animals on hot surfaces, if going for a walk try to pick the coolest times of the day (this is usually early in the morning or later at night)

Signs to look out for heatstroke: keep an eye out for excessive panting, weakness, drooling, lethargy, vomiting, incoordination and seizures

We love seeing our happy homes updates from pets that are adopted through with us 🩶 How cute is Bowser in his new home 🥰

🏡Happy Homes Update 🐈

Last year we adopted Satchmo from your vet clinic, who was rightfully renamed Bowser!

Just thought I’d send some photos of him settled in his new home alongside his now best mate Sushi (small one/pink tag) who’s from the RSPCA.

He still loves being brushed and is very chatty, especially when hungry or ready for bed. His zooms sound like an elephant going through the house because he’s an enormous sized cat. He loves to get under the blanket during winter and sleeps with his humans every night on the bed without fail.

We love him so much, he’s the best cat ever (not biased at all… haha)

Thank you for helping him and other cats/kittens

Thank you very much to Bowsers Owners for sending through a happy homes update, all of us at the clinic love to see how our rehoused animals are doing in their new homes 🩶

🎆Wishing everyone and their furry friends a safe and Happy New Year from the Whyalla Veterinary Team!

29/12/2024

With the countdown to the New Year just around the corner it is important to ensure that our animals are secure, safe and calm throughout all the celebrations 🎆🐶🐈

Here are a few tips to ensure your pets safe and comfortable during the festivities;

- Distractions and Mental Stimulation
Ensure your pets favourite toys or treats are available to them to help distract them from the noises. Calming music or white noise aid in helping mask the sound of the fireworks.

- Safe Spaces
Provide their favourite blanket and toys in a cozy, quiet area in your home where your pet can retreat if they feel uncomfortable.

- Be Close By
Your presence to your pet during fireworks can be incredibly comforting for them when they are feeling anxious.

For those pets that struggle more than the others, please give the clinic a call. We are here to ensure all pets are comfortable during all the festive celebrations. If you have an anxious pet we are here to help.

If you would like to get in contact with the nurses to discuss any of the information please call 886459926
