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

Where did all the waterbeds go?

Kylie Klein Nixon Reporter from Homed

Did you have - or do you still have - a Waterbed? I hunted high and low for someone who still used one of the originals, but couldn't find a soul who'd own up to it.
What do you think about these wonderfully kitsch pieces of retro bedroom decor?

💕🐇Rabbit Vaccinations🐇💕

Hamilton Small Animal Veterinary Centre

Did your family get a baby bunny for Christmas or is your adult rabbit due for their annual vaccination?

Did your family get a baby bunny for Christmas or is your adult rabbit due for their annual vaccination?

In New Zealand we have a highly contagious disease known as Rabbit Calicivirus Disease (RCD), also known as Rabbit Viral Haemorrhagic Disease (HVD). This is invariably lethal in all rabbits.

It is easily spread and infected rabbits can spread it through faeces, urine, saliva, nasal discharge and blood. The main vector for transmission of the disease are flies.

Most rabbits die very quickly within a few days and often without showing any obvious clinical signs before they die.

There are 3 strains of the virus in New Zealand and we have available a vaccine that will offer good immunity against 2 of the strains, sadly no vaccine is 100% effective.

Vaccination can be started at 10-12wks of age with just 1 vaccine required yearly. If starting vaccines before 10-12wks of age, then they will need a booster every 3wks until they reach 12wks of age.
