Vets and Covid Alert Level 2
Companion Vets Limited - What to expect at Level 2
Hello to all our valued clients
As you will no doubt have heard – the COVID Alert Level for Hamilton has now been raised to Level 2.
Companion Vets will remain open and we will be implementing some measures to help keep everyone safe at this time including:
• Wearing masks - the CVL team will be wearing masks as sometimes we need to be closer that 2m. We encourage our clients to wear masks too.
• Tracing - We will be encouraging clients to use the COVID Tracer app or our manual sign in sheet.
• Hygiene - We will have a bountiful supply of hand sanitizer and will encourage it’s use.
• Social Distancing - We will be encouraging social distancing especially in our reception. Luckily, this will be easily facilitated through the use of our separate cat waiting area, and our smaller dog and larger dog waiting areas as well as our generous consult rooms.
• Health &Wellness - As a precaution we ask you to please postpone your appointment if you are not feeling well, or if you or a household member have been tested for COVID and are awaiting a result.
Finally – please feel free to ring us if you need to make a plan to fit with your situation – we are only a phone call away!
Kind regards,
The Companion Vets Team

Scam Alert: Bank cold calls
ASB is warning customers about reports of cold calls from scammers claiming to be from ASB. These scammers are trying to obtain personal information, including usernames, dates of birth, and verification codes sent to your mobile phone.
🛡️ The "Caller Check" Test
If you get a call from someone claiming to be from ASB and you’re unsure, just ask them for a Caller Check. You will then be able to verify the call through the app.
Remember, banks will:
❌ Never ask for your banking passwords, PINs, or verification codes
❌ Never need to know your full credit card number – especially the CVC
❌ Never ask you to download software or remotely access your device
❌ Never ask you to purchase gift cards or transfer funds.
If you have received a phone call and think your account has been compromised, call ASB on 0800 ASB FRAUD (0800 272 372), or visit your local branch.
Some Choice News!
DOC is rolling out a new tool to help figure out what to tackle first when it comes to protecting our threatened species and the things putting them at risk.
Why does this matter? As Nikki Macdonald from The Post points out, we’re a country with around 4,400 threatened species. With limited time and funding, conservation has always meant making tough calls about what gets attention first.
For the first time, DOC has put real numbers around what it would take to do everything needed to properly safeguard our unique natural environment. The new BioInvest tool shows the scale of the challenge: 310,177 actions across 28,007 sites.
Now that we can see the full picture, it brings the big question into focus: how much do we, as Kiwis, truly value protecting nature — and what are we prepared to invest to make it happen?
We hope this brings a smile!
