Donate to our Wildlife Carers...

This is what ONE of our Wildlife Carers has in her care currently...

Twelve baby tawny frogmouths, two adult tawnies, six baby magpies, one adult magpie, two adult kookaburras, two baby currawongs, one baby butcherbird, three rainbow lorikeets, one duckling, two baby possums, one eastern grey kangaroo joey and one whip tail wallaby joey!!

They're eating her out of house and home. It’s incredibly stressful and time consuming. And expensive.

Unfortunately independent wildlife carers don’t get funding for what they do, so everything is paid for out of their own pocket.
This amount of wildlife takes a stupid amount of insectivore mix, divetelact milk powder, copious amounts of meat, mealworms and crickets, calcium syrup, vitamin and mineral supplements, fruit, vegetables, medication, teats and bottles, cleaning products… then there’s the fuel that they chew through driving from vet clinic to vet clinic every day, collecting sick, injured and vulnerable animals. The list goes on. It’s expensive!
Seriously though, if you’ve ever wanted to help but haven’t been sure how to, consider donating money or food or vouchers or products to your local wildlife carers. They desperately need it. And so do our wild animals.

If you can donate money towards food, fuel etc, please drop cash or Coles/Woolies vouchers to the clinic to help our Wildlife Carers! 🥰❤️

Cats: Stress & Urinary Tract Infections

Your cat may be prone to stress or anxiety, which can in turn lead to UTI’s. Some common symptoms that you may notice are straining to urinate, vocalizing or crying when urinating, blood in the urine, not using their litter tray, and sometimes licking around their ge***al region. Sometimes it can be abrupt changes that can cause short term stress, such as a change in the household or a new family member or pet, other times your feline friend may suffer long term anxiety issues. If your cat is suffering from urinary issues, you will most likely need a visit to the Vet, who may prescribe medication or therapeutic food.
Some over the counter help is also available to help these kitties out, such as Feliway spray or Diffusers, or we also have some great food to help keep puss calm!

HEARTWORM is deadly, and very prevalent in our area!!
Is your pet up to date?
Did you know there is a Heartworm injection?
The Proheart injection can be done from as early as 12 weeks old, to ensure your dog has cover from this deadly disease.
If your pup has the heartworm injection at 12 weeks of age (usually with their 2nd puppy vaccination), they will get another injection at 6 months old, and then every year with their vaccination.

Check with us today if you are unsure if your dog is covered!

It's Spring Time!!

And this means we see more birds.

If you come across a baby bird, what do you do?
Firstly, is it injured?
*If yes, please pop the baby in a warm box and drop to a Vet Clinic
*If No:
-can you see a nest? Pop the baby in the nest
-can you see the parents hanging around? Pop the baby in the nest where possible.
Baby Birds have a MUCH better chance at survival with their parents, as opposed to a carer.
*If you cannot find a nest, and there are no parents around for at least half an hour, you can drop the bird to a Vet Clinic.

Injured Birds or other wildlife?
Drop to a local Vet Clinic, and give as many details as possible
-Any obvious injury?
-Exact location found
-Contact name and phone number
*Wildlife Carers will need all of this information

If you find wildlife and local Vet Clinics are closed, please keep in a box, offer water and keep warm.

Wildlife and birds need to be dropped at a clinic to be assessed before going to a Carer.

PET EMERGENCIES & FIRST AID... Watch for our helpful hints, so you know what to do in these situations.

Social_10% off_Inflamed Gums_video

Your pet needs annual dental check-ups just like you. Inflamed and bleeding gums can be painful and can bleed if left unattended. This can cause pain and difficulty eating for your pet. Save on pet dental treatments when you book before 31 August 2023. https://yeppoonvetsurgery.com.au/dental-offer-2023

Social_10% off_Facial Swelling_video

Your pet needs annual dental check-ups just like you. Facial swelling can indicate dental issues that could be causing pain for your pet. Save on pet dental treatments when you book before 31 August 2023. https://yeppoonvetsurgery.com.au/dental-offer-2023

Social-FreeAss_Smelly Breath_video

Contrary to popular belief, smelly breath isn't normal in pets and could be a sign of gingivitis. Annual dental check-ups can help free your pet from a future of dental issues. Contact us to unleash good dental hygiene today with a FREE dental assessment. https://yeppoonvetsurgery.com.au/dental-offer-2023

Senior-Social-Video-Arthritis-Cat

As we cats approach middle age (7+) we can slow down a bit and run a little less. We need your help in getting us checked for many age-related illnesses like Osteoarthritis. Book a Seniors Pet Health Check-Up today. https://yeppoonvetsurgery.com.au/senior-check-ups

Senior-Social-Video-Lumps-Bumps

When you’re giving us a good old belly rub, you may notice some lumps and bumps under our skin. That’s a good time to Book in for a Seniors Pet Health Check-Up because early detection helps. (But finish the belly rub first please). https://yeppoonvetsurgery.com.au/senior-check-ups

Springtime means grass seed season, and for something so tiny, they can cause a lot of big problems for your pet! The issues they can cause range from minor discomfort right through to potentially life-threatening conditions. If you cannot remove a grass seed from your pet’s coat (with your fingers, tweezers or scissors), give us a call to organise removal.

It's important to continue exercising your pet in Winter, as well as keeping them mentally stimulated. Being cooped up inside can encourage destructive and negative behaviours. Walks, runs, catching up with friends and play sessions in the park are perfect ways to keep your pet active. Here are a few tips for you. 👇

Happy International Cat Day! Share below a pic of your cat in his favorite spot in the house 😺 🐈 #InternationalCatDay

Assistance Dog Day is part of the International Assistance Dog Week. The objective is to recognise and value the hard work of assistance dogs. These specially trained dogs provide essential help to so many people in our community. IADW have great resources, to help teach us more about Assistance dogs. #AssistanceDogDay https://www.assistancedogweek.org/

Today is Pet fire safety Day! We've put together some things to think about in order to keep your pet safe from danger. 🚒

Sometimes when a pet is in pain, you may see subtle changes in their behaviour. Any changes in behaviour can be a sign of pain or other health issues and we recommend taking your furry family to see one of our veterinary team.
