What people think is hard in vet med:
Surgery. Emergency cases. Diagnostics.

What’s actually hard:
Writing diarrhoea correctly on the first try.

Years of vet med.
Countless medical records.
Still giving it a second glance

💜 VET NURSE & TECH AWARENESS WEEK! 💜

This week we’re celebrating the incredible nurses who are such a huge part of the Te Puke Vet Centre team! 🐾

Our nurses are the ones comforting nervous pets, cuddling patients, helping in emergencies, supporting our vets, answering your questions, giving medications, holding paws (and sometimes dodging teeth! 😅) and going above and beyond every single day. 🐶🐱

We’re incredibly lucky to have such a caring, hardworking and dedicated team — and we know our clients have plenty of stories to tell! 🥰

If one of our nurses has made a special difference to you or your pet, we’d LOVE for you to nominate them in the original post below. 👇💜

Whether they helped your pet through a tough time, went the extra mile, calmed a nervous patient, or simply made you feel supported when you needed it most — let them know! 🥹🐾

It’s a wonderful opportunity to give our amazing nurses the recognition they deserve. 💜

🎉 GIVEAWAY ALERT 🎉

Is this your kitty?

A black and white entire male cat has been brought into the clinic after being hit by a Car on No 1 Road. He has no microchip.

Unfortunately his injuries were too severe and he hasn't made it.

We’d really love to reunite him with his family so they know what has happened. If you know him, or know someone who may be missing him, please get in touch with Te Puke Veterinary Centre
