23.01.2022 I'm just going to leave this cuteness here.. And say good night #oakleighcentralvet #oakleigh #vet #vetnurse #ilovemyjob #weloveourjobs #weloveanimals #vetnurse #vetnursing #dog #instadog #puppy #instapuppy

21.01.2022 Okay guys, big news....! Ginny, the adorable ginger kitten who has well and truly stolen the heart of everybody at the Oakleigh Central Vet and half of the internet... Had found an official home. She was going to be 2IC to Mumma Puss... But this little kitten was a little too confident with dogs (I'm talking strut straight up to them and bop them on the nose asking to play) so we decided it wasn't safe for her to be roaming the clinic.... So... Our wonderful nurse Shahira (who has been Ginnys number one fan from day 1) has decided to make it official and give Ginny a family of her very own. Ginny now spends her days lazing on the couch, pulling all of the toilet paper off of the roll and taking prime position in her humans bed. We miss her SO much, but promise that Shahira will supply us with regular updates.

20.01.2022 How do we have so many stray cats and so few feline toxicities when the list of toxic plants is so long?! (on a side note... If you've got a unwanted cat in your yard... Spray your perimeter with vinegar every few days for a couple of weeks... Cats HATE vinegar. I recently had a cat vs sandpit 'issue' and this worked a treat!) https://www.rspcavic.org/cats-toxic-plants

20.01.2022 This dog looks like he/she is having a great car ride!! .... BUT look a little closer. The window is all the down and there is clearly no car harness in sight.... Not only could this dog jump from the car when it is moving, or stationary at lights...imagine what would happen in a car accident. The dog could be thrown from the car because it is unrestrained, and if it were fortunate enough to survive, it may be hit by another car on the road or cause more accidents whilst it runs terrified. Animals MUST NOT be unrestrained in cars. Small dogs and cats can be in a carrier, securely fastened using a a seatbelt or in the foot well so it can't tip. Dogs should be in a car harness clipped in to the seat belt clicker. At. All. Times. #oakleighcentralvet #oakleigh #vet #vetnurse #ilovemyjob #weloveourjobs #weloveanimals #vetnurse #vetnursing #dog #instadog #puppy#instapuppy #catlovers #catsofig

20.01.2022 This is Lizzie, she is 12 years and 8 months old. Although she loves us (I'm pretty sure) She's not thrilled about coming in to have her very itchy and sore skin treated. After she has tolerated our treatment and enjoyed our cuddles she packed herself and her lead up and waited at the door for her Mumma. Isn't she beautiful! ... (excuse the fur on the floor... she didn't want to go into the consult room, so we treated her in the waiting area... one of the few bonuses of having no clients in our building)

19.01.2022 Hey everyone! Unfortunately we are having on going phone issues (possible network related??). People have not only been having trouble with our phones, but also their own when they get to the clinic!! If you're at the clinic trying to call us, please come and tap on the reception window to get our attention! If you are at home trying to call us, please try to call and then send an email instead. We're checking the emails frequently so we don't miss anyone!... Thank you so much for your patience. We believe that there is a big strain on the tele networks at the moment, and a lack of people on the ground to get out and fix things. #thankscovid19

17.01.2022 Mondays are exciting when you know you have adorable pups like Nova coming in!! #oakleighcentralvet #oakleigh #vet #vetnurse #ilovemyjob #weloveourjobs #weloveanimals #vetnurse #vetnursing#dog #bordercollie

17.01.2022 Oh Esteban you beautiful man. We love you! So much hair, so many butt wiggles and tail wags.

14.01.2022 Today, one of our team sent me this photo with the comment how pretty is our clinic! Not only did this comment pull on my heart strings as she called the clinic our clinic but it sent me on a journey down memory lane. In October we have been open for 23 years! Ive heard stories of David and Anne-Elise living in the clinic, taking $100 in the first week they were open, working days on end with no break and no help. And being SO excited (and scared!) about the adventure ...they had begun. I have been fortunate enough to be part of the Oakleigh Central Vet for almost 7 years and even in that short time I have seen some huge changes. When I arrived as a very green nurse, taking over a part time role there was no way I could foresee the adventure I was about to embark on. Seven years ago, we had a core team of four and a half staff, today were more than double that! I used to process x-rays manuallywith chemicals and film in a dark room which also doubled as a store room. The washing machine was outside in the dog run and we had laundry hanging from cages most evenings as our dryer couldnt keep up.The hydrobath was in the gravelled, pot holed, car park. We only dreamed about the ultrasound, monitoring and pathology equipment we have now. Four years ago we got a major face lift, gained 50% extra floor space and I still walk around our clinic smiling at how beautiful it is. However although the stuff has changed, the ethos David envisioned when he started this clinic still runs strongly through our team. David has always said he wants a family feeling in the clinic. For clients to feel like friends and their pets as though they are our pets too. For the team, he wants us to know each other, to be able to vent about things from outside of work and then keep on with our jobs with a clear head. I think he has achieved it. Now, more than ever before I am SO proud of our team. Each member fights to make our clinic better, to hold it to a better standard, to bring new information and better ways of doing things. The thing that stands out most to me, is the pride I see in each team member. Pride in the clinic, pride enough to call it our clinic.

13.01.2022 KITTEN SEASON!!! after a very slow start to kitten season... It is here in full swing! We currently have 11 kittens all needing homes! We will not send them home until December, as they are very young and we need to ensure they're fit and healthy ready for their new lives. If you need a kitten in your life, please call the clinic and register your interest.... We will then email you an application form and go from there! #oakleighcentralvet #oakleigh #vet #vetnurse #ilovemyjob #weloveourjobs #weloveanimals #vetnurse #vetnursing #cat #instacat #instakitten #ilovemyvet #adoptdontshop #petsarenotforchristmas

09.01.2022 What do you do when your dog has multiple small lumps, you want to ensure the vet seems all of them, but you're not allowed in the clinic?! You colour them in with highlighter of course!! #oakleighcentralvet #oakleigh #vet #vetnurse #ilovemyjob #weloveourjobs #weloveanimals #vetnurse #vetnursing #dog #instadog #puppy #genius

08.01.2022 Terrence is an adorable 1 year old poodle who came in for an ear infection. He is such a sweet little man and simply adored his cuddles with Shahira.

08.01.2022 Reminiscing about a couple of weeks ago when this ridiculously handsome stray cat came in. Not only was he stunning, he was smoochy too. He had a microchip, but it wasn't registered to any data base pleeeeeease check your pets microchips!! It is FREE to bring them in for us to scan and check the details.... #oakleighcentralvet #oakleigh #vet #vetnurse #ilovemyjob #weloveourjobs #weloveanimals #vetnurse #vetnursing #dog #instadog #puppy #cat #instacat #instakitten#ilovemyvet

07.01.2022 SPRING HAS SPRUNG!!! As September begins, we start to see the cold hands of winter ease and the warmth of spring return to the natural world around us. With spring of course, come bees! The tiny creatures who induce fear of two types... the first of being stung..and the second that if they continue to disappear at the current rate the natural world as we know it will be changed (read gone) forever.... Buuuut, let's not get in to that at the moment.. If your dog is unlucky enough to be stung by a bee, here is what to do! https://api-v2.vetcheck.it//bb371736-4d23-4ec7-a64e-c088d1

03.01.2022 The bond between owners and their pets during these difficult times is stronger than ever before. It can be devastating when pets die for a variety of reasons. Recently unprecedented COVID-19 restrictions have resulted in additional challenges for families when the heart breaking decision of euthanasia needs to be made. Furthermore, pet grief is often disenfranchised which means that the support normally available when a human loved one dies may not be as readily available f...or pet owners. This can make coping with the death of a beloved pet much harder. We would like to introduce you to Doctor Vanessa Rohlf who is a wonderful grief counsellor. She is a counsellor specialising in animal loss and bereavement with over 17 years of experience working in the animal industry. She has a PhD with a specialisation in psychology (human-animal interactions) and has further qualifications in mindfulness, animal bereavement and certification as a compassion fatigue therapist. Vanessa is available by phone or email, or you can visit her website. 0419 322 451 [email protected] drvanessarohlf.com.au
