22.01.2022 MEOW MEOW..... I LOVE YOU GUYS =^..^= Cat Stevens has found a loving forever home!!!MEOW MEOW..... I LOVE YOU GUYS =^..^= Cat Stevens has found a loving forever home!!!

21.01.2022 To All of our Valued Clients, Firstly, we want to assure you that we are open and will remain open, unless directed to close by the government or we are forced into lockdown. As you are all aware, things are changing rapidly, as the spread of covid-19 progresses. We will endeavour to keep you updated with any new developments that will affect us here.... Currently, we are operating with normal staffing levels, normal opening times and continuing to perform all appointment and procedures that we usually do. We also have a good supply of medications and foods that we regularly stock. We have plans in place, in the event of further lockdowns, to move to working in two teams. This will enable us to continue to be open the same hours we currently are. There has not yet been clarification from the government whether vet clinics will be considered an essential service. We’re hopeful based on overseas examples that we will be. Finally, we would like to thank you all for complying with the strict rules we need to enforce, to comply with the health department guidelines for social distancing in the clinic. 1. Only one human per consultation please. If two people need to hear the conversation by all means we’re happy for owners to use mobile phones in consult on speaker or any of the video calling platforms 2. Please stay 1.5 meters from everyone else, including our staff. Because of this, we need to limit the number of clients in the waiting room to a maximum of 3 people. If you arrive for an appointment, please let us know you have arrived, but we may need to ask you to wait outside. 3. Please use the hand sanitiser provided on arrival and departure from the clinic. 4. Please do not attend the clinic if you have travelled overseas in the last 14 days, have flu-like symptoms, should be in self isolation or you have a fever. Call us to discuss any issues that you have with your pet. Please understand these measures may need to change as the situation develops. If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to call us. Stay safe everyone. The team @ Seddon Vets

18.01.2022 1/7/20 To all of our clients living in the postcodes of 3012, 3021, 3032, 3038, 3042, 3046, 3047, 3055, 3060 and 3064, Due to the lockdown of your postcodes from midnight tonight, we are unable to see any of your pet/s for routine things, like vaccinations, until the lockdown is over. We are, however, still able to see your pet/s for other issues so please don’t hesitate to call us for an appointment if your pet/s is/are unwell.... We continue to ask that only 1 person attend the clinic for appointments. We also ask that people from the lockdown areas wear a face mask, which we will provide you with, whilst in the clinic. If you are unwell, supposed to be quarantining or have recently been tested for Covid-19 and are awaiting your test results, please do not attend the clinic. Phone us, if you have a problem with a pet and we will advise you on what to do. We thank you for your patience and understanding during this time. Our thoughts are with you all as you go back into lockdown. We hope you all keep well.

15.01.2022 MEOW MEOW....we would like to let you know that the comedy gang of four kittens have all found their new loving forever homes!!!!! =^..^= Everyone one is settling in well and showing off their Monkey cat training skills! Mumma cat...Kitty Flannagan is still looking for her special forever home so if you are able to open your heart and your home please get in touch with us. =^..^=

09.01.2022 Important Message RE: COVID-19 26/03/20: Hi Everyone,... In addition to the changes we have already implemented ( see post below or website under the COVID-19 tab ), in a further effort to keep everyone safe, we are now adding the following: Please call ahead when you need medications and/or food for your pet/s. We will prepare them then call you to take payment over the phone. You can then swing by to collect (we are happy to bring out to your car also if you ring when you’ve arrived) We will, where possible, use intradermal sutures that do not need to be removed after surgeries. This will mean that most surgeries won’t need a post op check. We are leaving time spare between consults. This will give us time to clean between each visit and reduce the contact time between clients arriving and leaving. It is important, now more than ever, that you are on time for your appointment. If your pet is due for vaccination, and they are very healthy, with no other issues that you’d like us to check, we may ask that we postpone their appointment. We will, of course, still vaccinate your pet/s where there is other concerns that you want checked. Puppy and kitten vaccinations are very important, as they have no immunity to diseases without vaccinations, so we will continue to vaccinate puppies and kittens as they are due. (NB. We will see any pet that already has an appointment booked for vaccinations) We ask that you postpone appointments for non essential things like nail trims (unless nails are growing into pads), cat grooms and anything else that can wait a month or two. We understand that there may be exceptional circumstances to any of our new ‘rules’. Please don’t hesitate to ring and discuss your issue with us so that we can, collectively, try to find a solution to a problem. Once again, we thank you for your understanding an cooperation while we endeavor to navigate through these uneasy times. Every few days it's likely we will need to make new changes to our policies, but we'll keep you all updated. Warm Regards, The Team at Seddon Vets.

08.01.2022 MEOW MEOW.....I'm still in party mode like its 1999!! =^..^= Monkey here peeps...long time no talk, but i've been busy with finding a hobby in my semi retirement...sleeping, eating, long slow walks on the grass, bug catching....ahh its the life! But more importantly I need your help yes my friends I have a kitty in need of a loving forever home. I would like to introduce you to Cat Stevens =^..^= This tiny bundle of fluff was found dumped in an open packet of cat bikkies on ...the train tracks near Sunshine, all on his lonesome :( He was riddled with ringworm when he arrived and we have been giving him plenty of TLC to help him grow big & strong. Now having overcome his early ailments he is ready to find himself his new forever home. So please if you can open your heart and your home or know of someone in need of a friend for life get in touch with us here @ SVH or drop in to say hi =^..^= See more

08.01.2022 And this is mum of the litter of rascals. As you can tell by her pic she is soooooooo over her kittens and is ready to let them find their own way in life. She has been a loving, protective mum who has done a wonderful job even only being a teenager herself. We are guessing she is about 1 & a half years old, DSH tabby. We have named her Kitty Flannagan as she has the most expressive face! She too is up for adoption, however due to her rough start in life being a teenage mum out on the streets she needs that special someone who will adopt her and give her time and space to find her feet. She is very wary of strangers but once she gets to know you she is very smoochy and loving. She hates dogs....be warned we have the battle scars to prove it!

07.01.2022 In the midst of this terrible time, we have a little good news. The Minister for Agriculture has confirmed that veterinary clinics are considered an essential service. This means that we will remain open, even in the event of a complete lockdown. The way we work has already changed and will need to change further. From Wednesday 1st April, we will be moving to ‘contactless consulting’. This means that our front door will be locked, you will need to call us when you arrive and... a staff member will let you in and ask you to leave your pet in a consult room. Bringing a list of things that you want checked would be great. A vet, assisted by a nurse, will then examine your pet and speak with you via a phone call (we will call you) or a video call. Payment will be taken over the phone. Medications required will be made up and left in the consult room for you to collect when you come back for your pet. If you require food or repeat medications for a pet, we request that you email us, giving us time to make them up. Once the food/medication is ready, one of our staff will call you to take payment over the phone. When you come to the clinic for collection, you will need to ring us and a staff member will bring the food/medication out to you. Again, we than you immensely for your support and understanding during this unprecedented time.

06.01.2022 MEOW MEOW........We have some fantastic news!!!!! Our beloved Kitty Flannagan has found her forever home =^..^= She is not sure what all the fuss is about, but she charmed her new mum and dad with her puurrrfect personality and will be living it up in her new home from tomorrow!!!! We will miss you mumma puss

05.01.2022 Last night we attended the Bendigo Bank Community Pitch night. We proudly donated $1000 which was shared between various pitchers. Congratulations to all who pitched and all who support the night. It's always a great evening! As you can see, Russell really loves it!!!!

02.01.2022 10/7/20 Wow, unfortunately here we go again! As of midnight on 9/7/20, everyone in Metro Melbourne is back in Stage 3 lockdown. This means that we are unable to see routine appointments. We can, however, still see pets if they are any health concerns. If you are unsure whether we are able to see your pet, phone us to discuss.... Sadly, we will need to move back to ‘contactless consulting’. This means that our front door will be locked, you will need to ring the doorbell when you arrive and a staff member will let you in (only 1 person per visit allowed in the building) and ask you to leave your pet in a consult room (dogs to please be left on the floor). Please ensure that you stay 1.5 metres from our staff and other clients. Bringing a list of concerns about your pet would be great and writing your name and phone number for the day on it helps us, too. You can leave it on the consult room table. A vet, assisted by a nurse, will then examine your pet and speak with you via a phone call (we will call you). Please have your phone on you and be ready to take our call. Payment will be taken over the phone. Medications required will be made up and left in the consult room for you to collect when you come back for your pet. If you require food or repeat medications for a pet, we request that you email us, giving us time to prepare the order. Once the food/medication is ready, one of our staff will call you to take payment over the phone. When you come to the clinic for collection, you will need to ring the doorbell and a staff member will bring the food/medication out to you. As has always been the case, please do not attend the clinic if you are unwell, supposed to be quarantining or have recently been tested for Covid-19 and are awaiting your test results. Instead, if you have concerns about your pet, please call us and we will advise you what to do. We thank you immensely for your support and understanding during this second wave. We wish everyone the best through our second lockdown. Let’s all look after each other and hope this is the last time we have to do this.
