🎃👻 HALLOWEEN HAZARDS – KEEP YOUR PETS SAFE! 🐾🧡

Halloween is full of spooky fun, costumes and sweet treats, but it can also bring some frightening dangers for our furry friends! 🐶🐱

Here are some Halloween hazards to watch out for:

🍫 Chocolate & Lollies – Chocolate and certain sweets can be toxic to pets.

🍬 Sugar-Free Treats – Xylitol is extremely dangerous to dogs and can cause life-threatening illness.

🎃 Decorations – Small decorations, glow sticks and costume accessories can cause choking or intestinal blockages.

🕯️ Candles & Electrical Cords – Keep curious paws and wagging tails away from burns, electric shocks and fire hazards.

👻 Costumes – Not all pets enjoy dressing up! Ensure costumes are comfortable and don't restrict movement or breathing.

🚪 Trick-or-Treaters – Loud noises, unfamiliar visitors and open doors can frighten pets or allow them to escape.

🚨 PET EMERGENCY? DON'T WAIT! 🚨

If your pet has eaten something potentially toxic or is showing signs of distress, seek veterinary advice immediately! Don't wait for symptoms to appear.

🚨🐾 TICK ALERT – SMALL BUT DEADLY! 🐾🚨

🌿 Tick season is here, and prevention is more important than ever!

With the warmer weather upon us, paralysis ticks are becoming a serious concern for our furry friends across Newcastle and Lake Macquarie. 🐶🐱

⚠️ Did you know? Just ONE paralysis tick can cause life-threatening illness in dogs and cats!

🔍 KNOW THE WARNING SIGNS:
🐾 Wobbly or weak back legs

🐾 Changes in barking or meowing

🐾 Vomiting, gagging or retching

🐾 Difficulty breathing

🐾 Lethargy or unusual behaviour

💗 PROTECT YOUR PET!

✅ Keep tick prevention up to date ALL year round.

✅ Check your pet daily, especially after outdoor adventures.

✅ Pay close attention around the head, neck, ears and under the collar.

✅ Make sure you're using a tick prevention product suitable for your pet.

🚨 SUSPECT A PARALYSIS TICK? ACT FAST!

Tick paralysis is a veterinary emergency! If your pet is showing any signs, seek veterinary attention immediately. Don't wait for symptoms to worsen.

💙💗 We're here to help!

Not sure if your pet's tick protection is up to date? Chat with our friendly teams at Cardiff Veterinary Hospital or Cameron Park Vet Hospital about the best prevention options for your furry family members.

🐕🐈 Prevention is always better than treatment!

Our nurses are the quiet achievers, the multitasking champions, the patient advocates, the puppy cuddlers and the heart and soul of our hospitals.

To our wonderful nursing team — THANK YOU! 💕

Thank you for the early starts, the late finishes, the laughs, the tears, the teamwork and the countless little things you do that make such a BIG difference.
