🔥🔥🔥PETS AND HEATWAVES

💢Pets can get dehydrated quickly, so give them plenty of fresh, clean water

💢Make sure your pets have a shady place to get out of the sun

💢Do not over-exercise, and keep them indoors when it’s extremely hot.

💢Know the symptoms of overheating in pets, which include excessive panting or difficulty breathing, increased heart and respiratory rate, drooling, mild weakness, stupor or even collapse. Symptoms can also include seizures, bloody diarrhea and vomit along with an elevated body temperature

💢Animals with flat faces, like Pugs and Persian cats, are more susceptible to heat stroke since they cannot pant as effectively and should be kept cool in air-conditioned rooms as much as possible.

💢Never leave your animals alone in a parked vehicle. Not only can it lead to fatal heat stroke

💢Do not leave pets unsupervised around a pool—not all dogs are good swimmers.

💢Rinse your dog off after swimming to remove chlorine or salt from his fur, and try to keep your dog from drinking pool water, which contains chlorine and other chemicals.

💢Trim longer hair on your dog, but never shave your dog: The layers of dogs’ coats protect them from overheating and sunburn.

💢Brushing cats more often than usual can prevent problems caused by excessive heat.

💢Be sure that any sunscreen or insect repellent product you use on your pets is labeled specifically for use on animals.

💢Don’t let your dog linger on hot asphalt. Being so close to the ground, your pooch’s body can heat up quickly, and sensitive paw pads can burn. Keep walks during these times to a minimum.

Such an awesome outcome !!! Well done Ravi !!!

MICKEY THE COCKATOO HAS BEEN SAFELY CAUGHT!

Ravi from Feathered Friends was able to safely capture him at 450pm! Amazing work mate 👏🏽👏🏽

What a relief and a huge thank you to not only all the other wildlife volunteers such as Sydney Wildlife (Sydney Metropolitan Wildlife Services) and Wild Conservation (and any others that were there when I wasn’t) but also to the Coles Staff and the Macarthur Square staff, you have done a great job in a stressful situation.

The power of social media at work again.

Myself or Council had no involvement in this, I’m just purely here to inform the community of what’s been happening.

I happened to be here with Ravi at the exact moment!

Well done to all 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

You don’t like kangaroos because they don’t understand what a road is? Look at what the road is going through…Land… An animal has absolutely NO idea what this is.

Tell me…apart from a trained dog, what animal has road sense. None. Actually trained dog will only know when they see a combination of things it is a ‘road’.
Dogs, Cats, Cows, Horses, Possums, Wombats, Rabbits, Sheep, Goats, Birds, Mice, Lizards Frogs… all animals get hit because, they don’t know what a road is.

The kangaroo hasn’t made a consciousness decision to jump in front of a car, because it doesn’t have that thought process right? But we do. We understand the consequences of jumping in front of a car, that’s why we don’t do it. A kangaroo, has no idea what is going to happen. You would think if they knew…they wouldn’t do it.

We have to STOP thinking that these animals do this deliberately just to annoy people.

As the sun sets tonight and every night so many animals will lose their lives. Some instantly. Some will take days, if not weeks.

In rescue every single day we wonder how many injured animals we drive past that will never get help. How many are laying off the road, down a ditch, in a paddock that are suffering.

PLEASE, slow down a little on the roads.If you see something, please make the call. Wildlife carers can only help if they know
