🌸🐾 Spring is here – and so is kitten season!
🐾🌸

As the weather warms up, cats begin breeding more frequently, and sadly this leads to a big increase in unwanted litters. Every year, countless stray and abandoned kittens need rehoming, putting pressure on rescues, shelters, and vet clinics.

The best way to help reduce this is by desexing your cat. ✅
• Prevents accidental litters 🐱
• Helps reduce roaming and fighting 🐾
• Can improve long-term health and behaviour 💕

If your cat isn’t yet desexed, now is the perfect time to book them in. Together, we can help give every kitten a better chance at finding a loving home.

📞 Call Midway Road Vet today to make an appointment or to ask our team any questions about desexing.

⚠️ PARVOVIRUS WARNING ⚠️

We see Parvovirus far too frequently for a preventable disease. Parvovirus can be seen all year round in SA, but is seen more frequently in the warmer months. Sadly, we see this deadly virus take the lives of far too many puppies and dogs.

Key facts:
👉 Parvo is highly contagious (dogs that never leave the home can still be exposed)
👉 It can survive in soil for up to 10 years (this needs to be considered if moving locations. Always ensure your dog is upto date with vaccinations before moving homes)
👉parvovirus can be spread on shoes and other belongings as well being in the environment
👉 It is exceptionally preventable with vaccination

Too many innocent lives are being lost to a disease that is preventable.
As animal lovers ourselves we want to educate clientele on this disease much as possible.

Vaccination facts:
• Puppies need their first vaccine at 6–8 weeks, with 2 follow up vaccines in total, given 1 month apart.
• Adult Dogs need a yearly booster (there are tri-annaul vaccines but we do not use them at ANVG)
• It's never too late and your dog is never too old to receive a vaccination
• if you purchase or attain a puppy/dog we advise if No certificate, assume it has NOT been vaccinated' Always ensure you get proof of vaccine or discuss with your vet

💵 Cost at ANVG:

• Puppies: $100
• Adults: $110
This includes a full consultation

We beg the public:
✅ Check your dog’s vaccine status NOW.
✅ If in doubt, call your vet
🚫 consider your finances before taking on the responsibility of pet ownership
🚫 Don’t wait until it’s too late.

PLEASE, for your dog, yourself and all of us in veterinary medicine ... 💉 Vaccinate. Protect. Save lives.

🐾🔑 Why Microchipping Your Pets is So Important 🔑🐾

Did you know that a simple microchip can be the difference between losing your pet forever and having them safely returned home?

Unlike collars and tags that can fall off or be removed, a microchip provides your pet with a permanent form of identification. Vets, shelters, and councils can scan a lost pet’s microchip and immediately access your contact details – meaning you can be reunited much faster. 💕

✨ A few key reasons to microchip your pets:
✅ It’s quick, safe, and causes minimal discomfort
✅ It’s a once-off procedure that lasts a lifetime
✅ Greatly increases the chances of lost pets being returned home
✅ It’s a legal requirement for dogs and cats in South Australia

At Midway Road Vet, we believe every pet deserves the best chance of finding their way home. 🏡🐶🐱

📞 Call us today to book your pet’s microchipping appointment or check that your pet’s microchip details are up to date.

Because family is family – and they deserve to come home. 💖

Why does your cat need a routine vet visit?

Even if your cat seems perfectly healthy, regular vet visits are important for a few reasons:
🐱Preventive care – Cats are very good at hiding illness, so a vet exam can catch problems early before they become serious.
🐱Vaccinations – Cats need to have yearly vaccinations to stay protected against common diseases, even if they’re indoors.
🐱Dental health – Dental disease is very common in cats and often goes unnoticed.
🐱Parasite prevention – Vets can check for fleas, worms, and other parasites, and can provide adequate preventative treatments.
🐱Baseline health records – Regular check-ups create a health history, making it easier to spot changes later.
🐱Age-related changes – As cats age, they’re more prone to issues like kidney disease or arthritis, which can be detected.
