25.01.2022 Who doesn't love a box full of puppies These cuties were in for vaccinations and microchipping this afternoon with Dr Lucy. The puppies took a well deserved nap after their ordeal while their mother watched over them closely

25.01.2022 Who loves Italian Greyhounds, we do! Dr Ed (middle lol) giving these two siblings some much needed cuddles. "Harley" (left) is still recovering from breaking his leg but his owner is doing a great job at keeping him well rested! "Cc" (right) is just here for the cuddles!

25.01.2022 Vale Missy. It is with much sadness that CVC wish to advise on the passing of Missy. Missy was the pet of Phil’s daughter Evie. As well as being half of Missy and Moo’s diary, Missy was a blood donor. Over the 14 years she was with us, she saved countless canine lives with her special Missy blood. She was a special puppa and we wish to pass on our condolences to Evie and her sister Annabelle. She will be missed but remembered.

19.01.2022 EXPLOSION OF BUFFALO FLY NUMBERS IN LOCAL CATTLE HERDS The blood sucking parasite is a serious pest for both cattle and buffalo and can cause subst...antial losses in production with a reduction in weight gain and a milk decline. North Coast Local Land Services' district veterinarian Liz Bolin said the warm, humid conditions are behind the spike. "The numbers are increasing and we're getting a lot more reports from producers about problem buffalo fly numbers," she said. "It's a biting fly so it feeds on the blood of cattle and it causes extreme irritation and pain, so we see decreased production and decreased animal welfare outcomes when the fly numbers get too high. "Most animals don't become too irritated until they get around 100 flies per side in beef cows and 30 flies per side in dairy cows, that's when we start to see production limitation due to the flies." But she said that low numbers can cause an issue for animals with a hypersensitivity to buffalo flies. "It takes up to only four flies in those circumstances to cause irritation," she said. "Those animals get extremely irritated, so they rub themselves causing sores on their fronts around their eyes." Dr. Liz Bolin said that LLS recommends an integrated approach, using both chemical and non-chemical options, to control the pest. "Non-chemical control options include buffalo fly traps, encouraging the activity of dung beetles because the fly basically lays its eggs in the cow poo so by encouraging the dung beetles we're reducing the amount of faeces there for them to reproduce in," she said. "Other things like culling those allergic cattle is a really good idea because then you're not treating your entire herd based on the actions of individuals and also it's a very heritable trait so you're just getting rid of that hypersensitivity out of your herd as well."

17.01.2022 A box of Boxers to brighten your day! These beautiful babies were in for their microchipping and vaccinations. If you have a litter of puppies or kittens that need their vaccines and microchipping give us a call on 66622488 to book them in!

13.01.2022 We had a visit from Buddy today who had a run in with a fishing lure. Buddy was seen to straight away by Dr Laif to have the "new piecing" removed under sedation. Buddy was happy to see everyone when he recovered and went home the same afternoon. The fishing gear is now well out of reach of curious puppy noses!

12.01.2022 CONFIRMED HENDRA CASE SOUTH OF MURWILLUMBAH There has been a confirmed Hendra case on a private property south of Murwillumbah.

It is so important to keep your horse up to date with their Hendra vaccinations for the safety of you and your family. For more information on our Hendra vaccination protocol, call us on 66622488.

09.01.2022 Merry Christmas from all of us from Casino Veterinary Clinic!

07.01.2022 Knowing Barn owls are nocturnal Keith quickly contained a Barn Owl he found sitting by the roadside in Lismore during the day. WIRES volunteer raptor carer Mel...anie responded to the call, and as the owl was obviously injured took the bird to Casino Vet Clinic where an examination revealed it had been savagely attacked by birds, most likely Magpies or Currawongs. Spring and summer can be a dangerous time for owls as other birds are very protective during breeding season and will often launch a combined attack. The injuries sustained to the owls head were significant, with one peck narrowly missing an eye. Fortunately the skull was not fractured, but the owl was certainly suffering from a heavy concussion. Melanie brought the owl home and with gentle care which included pain relief, ointment and antibiotics, the bird gradually healed over the next few weeks. Fresh new skin grew on the head but he was completely bald. When he was brought back to the vet for a check-up he was nicknamed Friar Tuck! It is now seven weeks since Friar Tuck was found and he is almost ready for release. His head feathers have nearly all grown back and interestingly, they appear to be a different colour than the rest of his head. Friar Tucks release will take place at night close to where he was found by Keith, but in a suitable area with lots of trees. Barn owls have exceptional hearing and their heart shaped facial disc helps direct sound waves to their ears, allowing them to pinpoint their favorite food such as mice and rats even in complete darkness. During the day they sit quietly concealed on a tree branch amongst thick foliage. Thank you Keith for saving this magnificent bird of prey.

05.01.2022 Can everyone keep an eye out for the much loved Pepper who is unfortunately missing. Pepper is greatly missed by his owner and would love to have him home.
