February is Heart Awareness Month for us humans but did you know your pets can have heart disease too? 🐕‍🦺🐈

They can either be born with congenital abnormalities or develop problems with age. You may notice changes in your pets breathing rate and effort at home, or they may not be as energetic and become more tired when exercising.🩺❤️

The best thing you can do to keep an eye on you pets heart is to have a veterinarian listen to their chest on a yearly basis at their annual vaccination, or if you notice any of these changes at home then give us a call.🩺❤️

If we hear any irregularity in the exam we may advice further tests such as X-rays or an echocardiogram to assess the structure of the heart.🩺❤️

There are medications and modifications we can make if we do find any issues with their heart, which can improve their quality of life and longevity.

Heart checks are a crucial part of our job as animals cannot tell us when they don’t feel well.

❤️🥰So not only look after your heart but your pets as well, remember they love you with all of it!🥰❤️

With the increase in the popularity of rabbits as companion pets here are a few facts that you might not know.🐇💕

🐰Rabbits teeth constantly grow, which is why good quality hay is so important to your rabbit’s dental health, not only is it a good source of fiber but it also helps wear down their teeth.

🐰Rabbits can live for up to 10 years of age.

🐰Have you seen your rabbit “BINKY”? This is when they run about and jump athletically in the air and twist and kick. It is a sign of happiness.🥰

🐰A baby rabbit is known as a kit or kitten, a female is called a doe and a male is called a buck. A group of rabbits is known as a herd.

🩺We recommend an annual vet check for your bunnies, to check teeth, vaccinate against Calicivirus, assess their general health, wellbeing and for any signs of disease.🩺

We have desexed a number of rabbits recently, so if you don’t want a herd of bunnies at your house, give the team a call 07 8493963. We can make an appointment for you or answer any questions you may have about your bunnies health and well being.

🐇💕Rabbits really do make great companions.🐇💕

•Risks of infections, cancer and other diseases of the reproductive organs in our precious pets are lowered.

water for animals

I always leave a large shallow bowl of water outside for my cat, as well as one inside. In this very hot weather the outside one is often completely empty in the morning; far more than my cat can drink overnight!
I can only imagine that there are other animals nearby who are very thirsty & have been led to my place in desperation for water.
Please people, put water outside for your animals, they can become very ill if they don't have access to clean water

It's to late to door knock I'm driving her to Afterhours vets now where they will hold her for 7 days. I've put up a poster and will be going back first thing in the morning to door knock everywhere and put up more posters. 🐾🌈❤️I'm so sorry sweet heart 😔 ♥️

Monarch Butterflies

Did some research this morning because I wondered if ants would take the eggs, seems that they do. So, following some advice I found I have put coffee grounds around the base of the plant (and a jam trap for the wasps). Result! This morning there was a regular runway of ants going up and down the plants, now there's hardly any, just have to wait and see if we get more caterpillars now.

This year's event runs from March 20 - 30th with the theme being 'The Great Plant Swap' as an easy way for neighbourhoods to grow stronger together.

Here's some ideas for ways you could get involved:

• swap seeds with a neighbour
• gift a plant you've grown to a neighbour
• take some flowers to a neighbour
• organise a produce swap
• share garden tips or recipes for food in season
• create community gardens or berm pollinator pathways
• host an inclusive garden-themed working bee
• a friendly neighbourhood BBQ with homegrown ingredients

The options are endless! At the end of the day, our shared aim is to help bring people together by encouraging intentional connection with our neighbours. Whether that be organising a street party, sharing a cuppa, or simply saying ‘Kia Ora!” to those who live around you, every action helps to create a safer and more connected New Zealand.

🐈‍⬛🥰We need your help one more time, please share far and wide.🥰🐈‍⬛

You may remember this beautiful lady who was brought in last week after being found homeless in the St. Andrews area.

No one has come forward to claim her and we would really love to find a new family that she can be a part of.💔

We affectionately call her ‘Agatha’ and she is the loveliest, smoochiest girl that just wants someone to love her.

Agatha is a middle aged lady and does have a health issue that is manageable, so please don’t let that put you off.💕

If you or you know someone that could give her the home she really deserves, please phone the clinic on 07 8492963 for further information on Agatha.

❤️Thank You❤️
