🌟 Snail Bait Poisoning 🌟

Rainy weather means snail season is here 🐌⚠️

Snail bait is commonly used in Australian gardens - but they can pose a deadly risk to curious pets. Our clinical teams regularly treat dogs and cats for metaldehyde toxicity, the most common active ingredient in these snail and slug baits. 🐌
Even a small amount can lead to rapid and severe symptoms. Without immediate veterinary care, the outcome can be fatal.
Furthermore, snail pellets marked 'pet safe' can still cause severe gastrointestinal signs and red blood cell damage.

🔴 Metaldehyde is a fast-acting neurotoxin. After ingestion, it can trigger symptoms in as little as 30 minutes. The toxin overstimulates the nervous system, leading to muscle tremors, seizures and dangerously high body temperatures.
❗There is no antidote. Treatment relies on urgent, intensive supportive care. Even a teaspoon of bait can be lethal for a small dog or cat.

If your pet has ingested snail bait, symptoms may develop quickly—within 30 minutes to 3 hours. Look out for:
🔺 Muscle tremors or twitching
🔺 Seizures
🔺 Vomiting or diarrhoea
🔺 Drooling or excessive salivation
🔺 Panting or fast breathing
🔺 Restlessness, anxiety, or confusion
🔺 Unsteady movement or collapse
🔺 High body temperature

🚨If you suspect your dog or cat has ingested snail bait, don’t wait. Call your nearest emergency vet immediately. Your fast action could save their life.
1. Stay calm and move quickly.
2. Call ahead. Let them know what your pet may have ingested and that you’re on your way.
3. Bring the bait container or label. This helps the vet identify the toxin and guide treatment.
4. Remove access. Clean any remaining bait from your pet’s fur and restrict access to the area.
5. Keep your pet quiet and still. Minimising movement helps reduce stress on their body.

🌟 World Blood Donor Day 🌟

Today is , typically a day dedicated to raising awareness of the importance of blood donation for humans. But did you know pets need blood too❓🐾🩸

While it's not a well-known fact, pet blood donations are critical in our hospital and can often mean the difference between life and death.
With the growing number of pet emergencies our hospital is seeing, our pet blood supplies are quickly draining leaving us in urgent need of more doggy donors. We have even had to rely on the pets from some of our own vets when they are eligible to donate (there are criteria around how often they are able to donate) for the important gift of blood.

Join in giving the gift of life to another beloved pet. 🩸

🌟 Breed Spotlight: Russian Blue 🌟

Russian Blue cats have an extremely dense and soft double coat.
In addition to their luxurious silvery coats, their most distinct features are their brilliant green eyes. 💚
They are generally sweet-tempered and loyal cats, who will meet you at the front door and they may even try to follow you on a dog walk!
They are social creatures but also enjoy their alone time. They're usually fine while you are away at work but they will insist on plenty of playtime when you get home.

Russian Blue cats live an average of 15-20 years. 💞

🌟 Yolanda 🌟

This very beautiful Dwarf Lop recently came to see us after her devoted family noticed she wasn’t quite herself - she had become quiet, lethargic, and wasn’t eating as she normally would. 🐇
Following her clinical assessment, our team identified that Yolanda was showing signs consistent with gastrointestinal (GI) stasis.

🔴 What is GI stasis?

In rabbits, the digestive system needs to keep moving constantly. GI stasis occurs when the gut slows down or stops, which can quickly become serious. It’s often associated with reduced appetite, lethargy, smaller or fewer droppings and discomfort. Early intervention is so important to help get things moving again and prevent complications.

Yolanda stayed overnight with our clinical team, where she received supportive care, including pain relief, fluids and assisted feeding with specialised critical care nutrition to support her gut function.
The following day, she continued her care with her primary vet team for further diagnostics and treatment.

We’re so pleased to share that Yolanda’s family have let us know she’s doing beautifully at home and is back to her happy, bright self. ✨
Thank you to Yolanda’s wonderful owners for recognising the changes early and seeking care so quickly - it makes all the difference. 🐰💞

🌟 Why waiting until morning can make treatment harder (or more expensive) 🌟

When your pet becomes suddenly unwell after hours, it is completely understandable to hope things will settle overnight. 🌙🐾
Sometimes they do. But in many cases, waiting until morning can make a big difference to both the complexity of treatment and the overall cost.

Certain conditions progress quickly in pets. What starts as mild vomiting, lethargy or discomfort can escalate into dehydration, pain, obstruction or organ strain within just a few hours. By morning, we may be treating a more advanced and serious version of the same problem.

🔴 Here are a few common examples we see after hours:
🐶 Foreign body ingestion that can move from “suspected” to full intestinal blockage
🐱 Urinary blockage that becomes life-threatening if delayed
🦴 Toxins that are absorbed over time, reducing treatment options
🌡️ Heat stress that worsens rapidly without immediate cooling and support

Early treatment often means:
✔️ Simpler diagnostics
✔️ Less intensive intervention
✔️ Shorter hospital stays
✔️ Better outcomes for your pet

Delaying care can sometimes mean more advanced imaging, emergency surgery or intensive care support is needed. Not always, but often enough that we see the difference every single night in emergency practice.

If you are unsure, trust your instincts. A quick phone call to us can help you decide whether it can wait or needs attention now.

We are here 24/7 when your pet needs urgent care.

🌟 Obi 🌟

This gorgeous 2-year-old Toy Poodle recently visited our Yokine hospital after his caring family noticed he wasn’t quite his happy, bouncy self. With symptoms like vomiting and diarrhoea, Obi needed some extra help. 💖

Obi stayed overnight with our team, where he received intravenous fluids, pain relief and radiographs to check for any possible foreign body obstruction. We know how worrying this can be for families, so ruling this out was an important step in his care.

The good news? Obi’s radiographs did not indicate an obstruction, and he responded beautifully to treatment during his stay. 💫
We’re so pleased to share that this sweet boy was able to go home to his loving family the very next day and he’s continued to do well ever since! 🐾💞

Thank you to Obi’s wonderful owners for acting quickly and trusting us with his care. 💖

🌟 FAQ: What information will you need from me when I arrive❓🌟

When you arrive at our emergency hospital, we know time matters - so here’s what we’ll typically ask for:

✅ Your pet’s name, age, breed & s*x
✅ A brief summary of the problem or symptoms
✅ When it started and any changes you’ve noticed
✅ Any medications, pre-existing conditions or recent treatments
✅ Your contact details

If your pet has eaten something unusual, please bring the packaging or a photo if you can 📦📸
The more details you can give us upfront, the faster we can help your pet.

We're here when you need us - day or night. 🌙❤️

🌟 Client Testimonial 🌟

"This is hands down the most incredible veterinary team. They showed unconditional compassion when they helped us say goodbye to our older dog and ferret, which meant the world to our family. Then just recently, they rushed to help when our 7-month-old pup Charlie ate a whole packet of Tim Tams, taking him in straight away and getting him sorted out. From the hardest moments to unexpected emergencies, they are an absolutely fantastic team. Highly recommended!"
