23.01.2022 Increased thirst indicates a change in your pet’s underlying health. If you suspect your pet is drinking more than usual, the first thing to do is to find out exactly how much more. Use a measuring jug to pour water into their bowl and after 24 hours, record how much water is left. When you make a consultation to investigate the issue with us, this information will be invaluable.

22.01.2022 Has your pet ever been stung by a bee or wasp? Some pets barely notice, while others may experience significant swelling to the area of the sting. Unfortunately, some pets may even experience an allergic reaction of anaphylactic shock, which can be severely life-threatening. If you notice your pet start experiencing any swelling or collapse after a bee sting, call our clinic immediately.

22.01.2022 We have five 8 week old kittens ready for their new homes! Dasher, Dancer, Cupid, Vixen and Comet have all had their first vaccination, working, microchip and flea treatments. This fee also includes desexing and lifetime registration. Their adoption fee is $250 each and they are ready to go to their homes straight away!

21.01.2022 Is your pet on flea control? Although parasites like fleas are less active in the colder months, as soon as the weather begins to warm, they return with vengeance. Good quality preventatives will stop flea infestations on your pet and in your home, but if your pet already has fleas, it’s best to decontaminate your carpet, furniture and your pet’s bedding. Call us today if you need help picking the right flea control for your pet.

20.01.2022 Heat stress is a risk to all pets, but particularly dogs and those kept in cages, such as rabbits and birds. All pets must have access to shade in a well-ventilated area, as well as constant access to cool, fresh water. Dogs should only be exercised in the early morning or evening. If your pets show signs of heat stress, such as open-mouth panting, collapse, or excessive salivating (dogs), contact us immediately. Let’s stay safe this summer.

17.01.2022 If your pet’s coat is looking a little worse for wear since winter’s end, don’t fret, skin and coat health can be maintained with just a few simple steps. Firstly, ensure your pet is on regular flea control and fed a good quality diet. Wash your pet in a gentle, pH-balanced shampoo and only as often as needed. There are numerous skin conditions that can affect pets, so visit the clinic or call us today if you notice any new or unusual changes to your pet’s skin conditions.

16.01.2022 Nothing can bring an otherwise tough dog to their knees like a torn nail. Torn nails can bleed dramatically, but the real issue is the exposed bundle of nerves and blood vessels in the ‘quick’, which can lead to significant pain and infection, if left untreated. It’s best to bring your dog into the clinic if they’ve torn a nail. If there is a lot of bleeding, you can gently wrap their foot in a towel and bring them straight down.

14.01.2022 Wow! We are already fully booked over Christmas for cat boarding! We have limited availability just before and after New Years. We still have some space available for dogs over Christmas but if you wish to make a booking please call us ASAP to secure your spot!

14.01.2022 Enfield Vet staff would like to thank our clients for being so patient with our COVID-19 clinic restrictions. We have since loosened these and the restrictions are now as follows: - one person per pet to arrive for the appointment... - if you wish to be present for your pets consult we ask that you wear a mask - please call when you arrive for your appointment as we have restrictions on how many people can be in the waiting room, so we may ask you to wait outside for a few minutes while we discharge the previous patient If you have any questions before you arrive please call us on 9747-3999

14.01.2022 When travelling with dogs in the car, it’s important they are adequately restrained for both their safety and yours. Many car restraints for dogs aren’t thoroughly tested for safety, with reviews by Choice and the NRMA previously failing many of the available products as unsafe for people, pets or both. Make sure you research car restraints before buying and purchase a good quality restraint that has been thoroughly safety tested to protect both you and your pooch.

13.01.2022 The appearance of your pet’s skin and coat is often a sign of their overall health. Healthy dogs and cats on a good quality diet will have a smooth and glossy coat (excluding rough coat breeds). If your pet’s coat is looking dull, dry, oily or ‘scurfy’ (full of dead skin), it indicates there is something going on with either their diet or their health. Make an appointment with us today to discuss how we can boost your pet’s health and get their coat shine back.

11.01.2022 Many of our clients with new puppies can relate to this one!

07.01.2022 If your pet has a thick or double coat, you’ll notice them start to shed as the winter weather comes to an end. Groomers can help to remove the dead hair from your pet’s winter coat or if you are keen to do it yourself just make sure you use a brush that is gentle on the skin. Brush in the direction that the hair grows and if you encounter a mat, gently untangle it with your fingers. If your dog has several mats, take them to a groomer for assistance.

07.01.2022 Are you fe-line like you need a holiday? If you're planning a getaway this summer, it’s important to check your cat has everything they need before boarding. Make sure your cat’s parasite control and vaccinations are up-to-date. All catteries require proof of current F3 vaccination before accepting your cat. If you’re unsure whether your cat is fully vaccinated, or you know they’re overdue, give us a call today.

06.01.2022 Did you know that feline asthma affects 1-5% of cats? Symptoms include coughing, wheezing and difficulty breathing. Over time, feline asthma can damage parts of the airways and lead to life-threatening breathing difficulties. The good news is that feline asthma can be well-managed with medications similar to asthma puffers in humans. If you notice your cat coughing, make an appointment with us today to find the cause and start their treatment.

05.01.2022 Today is World Animal Day, an annual event celebrating animals and their ongoing treatment in society. As vets, we are continually campaigning for better welfare standards and rights for all animals, large and small.

02.01.2022 Canine heartworm disease is a deadly infection spread by mosquitoes, so it’s important your dog is on heartworm preventatives. If you think your dog has missed a dose of heartworm preventative, or you’ve been more than a few weeks late for a monthly dose, your dog might be at risk of heartworm infection. Make an appointment with us today if you’re concerned. There is an in-house test we can run to determine if your dog has been infected with heartworm.
