🐾💕 **CUTENESS OVERLOAD AT KVH TODAY!** 💕

We had three very unexpected (and ridiculously adorable!) little visitors arrive at Kirrawee Veterinary Hospital today! 🥹❤️

These three gorgeous **sugar gliders** found themselves in a bit of a pickle after the tree they called home was chopped down. 🌳💔

A HUGE shoutout to the incredible team at **WIRES**, who jumped into action and organised a wildlife carer for these precious little ones ASAP! 👏❤️ We're so grateful for the amazing work they do to protect our native wildlife.

🌟 **DID YOU KNOW?** 🌟

Sugar gliders can glide up to **50 metres** between trees using a special membrane of skin that stretches between their front and back legs! 🪂 How incredible is that?!

They're also very social little creatures who live in family groups and snuggle together to keep warm. 🥹💕

We're so glad these three little cuties are now in safe hands, and we hope they'll be back enjoying life in the treetops soon! 🌿❤️

**Seriously though… aren't they just the CUTEST?!** 😍🐾

🚨🐱 CAT OWNERS, THIS ONE IS FOR YOU! 🚨

Think your cat is safe from paralysis ticks? THINK AGAIN! 💔

This nasty little parasite was removed from a cat who came into our hospital THIS WEEK! 😳

And it's another reminder that tick season is well and truly underway!

🐱 Indoor cats? STILL AT RISK.
🐱 Backyard explorers? DEFINITELY AT RISK.
🐱 Cats who only pop outside for five minutes? YES, THEM TOO!

Paralysis ticks don't discriminate, and unfortunately, it only takes ONE to cause a life-threatening emergency.

💔 Tick paralysis can cause weakness, wobbly legs, changes in meowing, vomiting, difficulty swallowing and, in severe cases, respiratory failure.

Some cats require intensive care and ventilation just to survive. Tragically, not all make it home.

PLEASE DON'T WAIT UNTIL YOUR CAT IS SHOWING SYMPTOMS!

❤️ PREVENTION IS SO MUCH BETTER THAN CURE!

The good news? Protecting your cat is EASY!

🐾 Monthly tick prevention options
🐾 Three-monthly tick prevention options
🐾 Simple spot-on treatments
🐾 Peace of mind knowing you're doing everything you can to protect your furry family member!

⚠️ IMPORTANT: Never use dog tick prevention products on cats. Some can be extremely toxic!

Please check your cats daily, even when using prevention, and seek urgent veterinary care if you notice any signs of tick paralysis.

❤️ We would much rather see your beautiful kitty for preventative care than fighting for their life in hospital.

📞 Kirrawee Veterinary Hospital | 9521 6422

If your cat isn't currently protected, let TODAY be the day you change that. 🐱❤️

❤️🎂 HAPPY 18TH BIRTHDAY, MOLLY! 🎂❤️

The happiest of birthdays to our beautiful Molly, who turns 18 today! 🥹❤️ Her gorgeous mum came in to celebrate this very special milestone with us, and we couldn’t feel luckier to be included in such a beautiful family moment.

It’s moments like these that remind us how incredibly special it is to be part of our patients’ lives and to have their families share these precious milestones with us. 🐾❤️

Happy 18th birthday, Molly! We hope your day is as beautiful and special as you are. 💕🎉

🚨 TICK SEASON IS WELL AND TRULY UNDERWAY! 🚨

If your pet is overdue for tick prevention, PLEASE take this post as your reminder to do it TODAY. ❤️

☀️🌧️ A few days of beautiful sunshine followed by some rain? Perfect conditions for ticks! And here in the Sutherland Shire, paralysis ticks are a very real and potentially deadly threat to our pets.

We cannot stress this enough: PREVENTION IS SO MUCH BETTER THAN CURE.

❤️ Prevention can mean the difference between your pet being happy at home or lying in an emergency hospital, unable to breathe without a ventilator.

❤️ Prevention can mean avoiding days of intensive care, thousands of dollars in veterinary bills and an incredibly stressful experience for your family.

❤️ Prevention can mean the difference between life and death.

And most importantly, prevention may help spare you from ever having to make a heartbreaking decision about your pet's future.

🐾 WHAT DOES A PARALYSIS TICK DO?
Paralysis ticks release a toxin while feeding that affects your pet's nervous system. As the toxin takes effect, muscles become weak, swallowing can become difficult and, in severe cases, the muscles responsible for breathing can become paralysed. Without urgent veterinary treatment, tick paralysis can be fatal.

🚩 KNOW THE WARNING SIGNS!
Symptoms can include:
🐾 Wobbly back legs or difficulty walking
🐾 Weakness, lethargy or reluctance to move
🐾 Changes in barking or meowing
🐾 Gagging, retching, vomiting or difficulty swallowing
🐾 Excessive drooling
🐾 Rapid, noisy or laboured breathing
🐾 Collapse or inability to stand

If you notice ANY of these signs, seek veterinary attention IMMEDIATELY. Don't wait to see if your pet improves. Tick paralysis can progress rapidly, and symptoms may worsen even after a tick has been removed.

💉 THE GOOD NEWS? PROTECTION HAS NEVER BEEN EASIER!
There are fantastic prevention options available, including monthly, three-monthly, six-monthly and yearly products, depending on your pet and the treatment chosen.

🐶 FOR OUR DOG OWNERS:
Our 12-month Bravecto Quantum injection provides a full year of flea and paralysis tick protection! No forgotten tablets. No wondering when the last dose was given. No monthly reminders. Just one injection, administered by our veterinary team, to help keep your dog protected all year round.

🐱 AND DON'T FORGET OUR CATS!
Cats are also at risk of tick paralysis, even if they spend most of their time indoors. We have suitable tick prevention options for cats too!

❤️ PLEASE DON'T WAIT UNTIL YOU FIND A TICK.

Check your pets daily, especially around their head, ears, neck and under their collars. Remember, ticks can be tiny and difficult to find, and even pets on prevention should still be checked.

At Kirrawee Veterinary Hospital, we've seen firsthand just how devastating tick paralysis can be. We've seen pets require ventilation and intensive care, and tragically, not every pet survives.

We don't want that for your pet. We don't want that for your family.

We want your pets healthy, happy and right where they belong — at home with the people who love them. ❤️

📞 Call our friendly team on 9521 6422 to discuss the best tick prevention option for your pet.

If you're overdue, make today the day you get back on track. It could save your pet's life. 🐾❤️

🐾❤️ HAPPY WORLD VET NURSE DAY! ❤️🐾

Today we celebrate the absolute heart and soul of our clinic — our incredible veterinary nursing team! ❤️

There simply aren't enough words to express how much we adore and appreciate each and every one of you.

We see your hard work, your dedication and the endless kindness and compassion you show to every animal and family that walks through our doors.

We see the way our experienced nurses guide the next generation, sharing their knowledge, mentoring our newer nurses and teaching our vet nursing students with patience, encouragement and passion. Watching you help others grow is something we're incredibly proud of ❤️ But beyond your incredible skills, it's who you are that makes our team so special.

Each of you brings something unique. You bring laughter, warmth, strength, compassion and personality into our clinic. You light up a room simply by walking into it, even on the hardest days.

Veterinary nursing takes an extraordinary amount of strength, resilience and heart. You advocate for those who cannot speak, comfort them when they're frightened, celebrate their recoveries and hold them gently when things get tough.

We simply couldn't do this job without you. ❤️
Thank you for the early mornings, late finishes, cuddles, tears, laughter, teaching, teamwork and the million little things you do every day that often go unnoticed.

Today we celebrate YOU, and we hope you know just how loved, appreciated and valued you truly are.

A HUGE thank you to our beautiful:
❤️ Bronte, Emma, Fernando, Heather, Jaclyn, Jen, Jess, Kayla, Lisa, Maddie, Maggie, Meagan, Natasha, Olivia, Sam, Sara, Sarah, Sheridan and Talia. ❤️

And a special shout-out to our beautiful kennel hand Lucy, who is such a treasured part of our team! ❤️
