At Animal Emergency Australia, we see this every day. Whether it’s providing life-saving emergency care, supporting pet owners during stressful times, or working as a compassionate team, kindness is at the heart of everything we do.

Let’s make every day a little kinder, because every act counts. 🐾

Remembrance Day

Today we pause to honour the courageous men and women who served and sacrificed for our freedom. At 11am, we observe a moment of silence to remember the fallen and reflect on the legacy they left behind.

Remembrance Day marks the end of World War I and reminds us of the bravery and resilience of all who served. We also acknowledge the animals who stood alongside them, dogs, horses, pigeons and other service animals who provided companionship, carried essential supplies, delivered life-saving messages, and supported troops in ways that changed the course of history.

Their courage, loyalty, and sacrifice will never be forgotten.

Lest we forget.

🐾 Seasonal Emergencies: Key Insights for Veterinary Teams

As temperatures rise across Australia’s East Coast, emergency presentations in dogs and cats increase, including heatstroke, food toxicity, snake envenomation, and tick paralysis. Early recognition and rapid response are essential for improving patient outcomes.

🔥 Heatstroke: Common in both dogs and cats. Look for excessive panting, drooling, weakness, vomiting, or collapse. Begin active cooling (not ice-cold water), provide IV fluids, and monitor closely.

🍫 Food Toxicity: Chocolate, grapes, xylitol, onions, and lilies can be highly toxic. Early decontamination and supportive care are critical to prevent organ failure.

🐍 Snake Envenomation: Signs may include collapse, paralysis, or bleeding disorders. Minimise movement, administer antivenom, and provide supportive care and monitoring.

🕷️ Tick Paralysis: Progressive weakness, ataxia, and respiratory distress can occur. Prompt tick removal, oxygen therapy, and early intervention are vital.

🧠 The Takeaway:
Understanding the signs and implementing prompt intervention significantly improves outcomes.

🎃 Halloween Pet Safety 🐾

Halloween is a festive time, but it also brings unique risks for our patients. As veterinarians, we play a crucial role in guiding pet owners to keep their animals safe while enjoying the celebrations.

Key risks to advise clients on:
👻Toxic Foods: Chocolate, xylitol, and raisins can cause vomiting, seizures, liver or kidney failure. Early recognition and prompt treatment are critical.
👻Costumes & Accessories: Festive outfits can cause stress or injury. Supervision and comfort are essential.
👻Decorations & Hazards: Candles, glow sticks, and electrical cords can be ingested or cause burns, advise clients to secure these safely.
👻Stress & Overstimulation: Trick-or-treaters and noise can trigger anxiety or escape attempts. Recommend safe spaces and calming strategies.
👻Identification: Ensure ID tags and microchips are current in case pets become lost.

By recognising the signs and understanding the risks, prompt assessment and treatment can significantly improve patient outcomes.

Let’s help clients celebrate safely while keeping pets healthy!
