21.01.2022 HUMPHREY NEEDS YOUR HELP.... Humphrey was adopted from Devonport Centre just a couple of days ago. Unfortunately he shot out the door of his new home when he sa...w an opportunity and now he is in unfamiliar territory. His new home is in the Montello Area (Burnie). Of course his new people are devastated and really want him back home. So, if you live in that area, please keep your eyes peeled for this big boy. He still has some bald patches around his neck from his previous abcesses and is wearing a collar. He's a very friendly boy, so we hope he will find someone who will help him get home soon. If you find Humphrey please either call RSPCA on 6427 2566 or his new owners on 0498 218 399. Any information on sightings would be greatly appreciated. Please share this and help get Humphrey back home. See more

18.01.2022 Caution to dog owners: Take care when seeking made-for-human alternatives to Veterinary therapy: XYLITOL, a common artificial sweetener in human foods, but very toxic to dogs, is mostly thought of as in Chewing Gum, but ... it is also in some COUGH SYRUPS, chewable human VITAMINS, and other readily available human meds and supplements. And in some...... ... breath mints, mouthwash & human TOOTHPASTES ... nut butters. including PEANUT BUTTER ... baked goods, sugar-free deserts such as low-cal ICE-CREAM [so dont let your dog lick the platter clean!] And ... I have seen, in a Supermarket, 100% Xylitol Lollies for an energy boost Xylitol should be included in the ingredients list for Australian products, but many longer-life items are still avaiable from the time before that advice was issued. One informative [American] link is: https://www.fda.gov//consu/paws-xylitol-its-dangerous-dogs

17.01.2022 PENGUIN: imagine a town without roaming Tom Cats During Sept 2020 Penguin Vet will desex the Tom Cats and Tom Kittens presented by Central Coast residents for a discounted price of $105 ... and also GIVE them a fully registered-for-life microchip. They can be 8 weeks to 8 years old [those older and younger we will need to discuss individually] but MUST be booked in by Sept 30th 2020 and paid for on admission. Please share with friends who may be interested.... For further information, and a booking, best email .............. [email protected]

17.01.2022 Does it matter the dog ate the Easter Egg? Use this link to find a Chocolate Toxicity Meter.

OR phone 64371331 and we Will Help Have a restful and Safe Easter Everyone.

17.01.2022 Cat Found, South Rd Penguin Golden flame shorthaired tortie. This little one had sadly been hit on the road and killed, she was brought here in the hope we could identify her by microchip, but we were unable to scan one. We will keep her until early next week, hoping her family manages to claim her. Please share... Phone 6437 1331 [picture is a look-alike from the net See more

11.01.2022 We onsent a consignment of wildlife pouches and pouch-liners to Koala and Kangaroo rehabillitation centres in bushfire-affected NSW/Vic today. Some came from as far away as Pensylvania USA; others from fantastic peple here in Penguin. We have been given more that are suited to Tasmanian Wildlife, and will distribute them locally. THANKYOU so much to the people who have worked so hard.

11.01.2022 I have watched this twice: and can find nothing to disagree with! Quite honestly, what is he doing in that job?

10.01.2022 SALES to help FIRE RELIEF Thankyou to the medicos who have brought in consignments to onsend to Vet clinics tending fire victims.

09.01.2022 This is MAPLE, who was needing a home; but now has a super dooper good one!. She is guaranteed to sit on the newspaper crossword you are in the middle of, and to help you with any typing, knitting, telly watching etc that you might be doing. However she was nervy when she first arrived, and definitely needs a quiet inside-cat existence with adult owners and no other pets. She has been speyed, microchipped, vaccinated, wormed, litter-trained and given much TLC, so $170 will bring you a lifetime of black-cat love. Phone us 64371331 if interested

08.01.2022 To Everyone affected by Covid-19 please accept my sympathy To the NW hospital workers now in self isolation please accept my sincere thanks for the wonderful work you have been doing, If your animals do need help during your isolation please phone me on 64371331 [it is on 24 hour divert] ... Penguin Vet does have protocols in place and WILL help you if we can. Telephone consultations, for instance, can be organised, and repeat medications dispensed to you via a friend.... My best wishes to you all. Tessa [Please share this to anyone it may help]

06.01.2022 For those who remember Ra2, our Clinic "Doorman" Cat. He is visiting us today, hoping to meet up with another prior employee who was his best mate, and who may also be visiting. Born in 1997, Ra is now living out his retirement with the vet. We love him dearly, will always care for him, but he does miss his cronies and is delighted to be back here today. People, sit quietly where-ever you are, and you may hear the PURRRRRRR,

05.01.2022 He was LOST but now is FOUND and SAFE at HOME in PENGUIN Thankyou to those who Cared and Shared

05.01.2022 STORIES FROM THE FIRELINE: Our Forestry field ecologists continue to capture heart-warming images of forest wildlife via "critter-cams" installed at our water-p...oints.

02.01.2022 Posted from my daughter Claire, based in Phnom Penh, Cambodia. "Basically DFAT is channeling all aid money into COVID relief but doing a remarkably bad job of getting it to people who really need it for example people with disabilities, women, ethnic minorities etc"
