🐾😴 We all know pets have their favourite place to sleep... but what about their favourite style of sleeping?

Some curl up into a tiny ball, some stretch out and claim the entire floor, and some manage to fall asleep in positions that look completely impossible! 😂

We'd love to know... what sleeping style does your pet favour most?

🐾✨ HAPPY VISITS AT VET2URPET ✨🐾

Did you know vet visits don’t always have to involve vaccinations, blood tests, or scary experiences? 💙

Happy Visits are short, non-medical visits designed to help your pet build positive associations with the vet clinic and our team 🐶🐱

The goal is simple:
✨ Build trust
✨ Reduce fear and anxiety
✨ Help your pet feel safe and confident at the vet

Instead of only associating the clinic with procedures or feeling unwell, Happy Visits teach your pet that coming to the vet can mean treats, cuddles, praise, and good experiences 🍖✨

🐾 What happens during a Happy Visit?
• A quick walk around the clinic
• Plenty of treats and positive attention
• Gentle handling and pats
• Practice stepping on the scales
• Exploring new sights and smells at their own pace

These visits are usually only 5 minutes long and can make a huge difference for:
🐶 Puppies
🐱 Kittens
🐾 Rescue pets
🐕 Nervous or anxious pets
🐈 Pets who have had stressful vet experiences in the past

💡 Tips for success:
✔️ Bring your pet’s favourite high-value treats
✔️ Keep visits short and positive
✔️ Don’t force interactions if your pet is unsure
✔️ Start small, even sitting in the carpark is a great first step!

Regular Happy Visits can help create calmer, less stressful vet appointments in the future for both pets and their humans 💙

📞 If you think your furry friend would benefit from a Happy Visit, give our team a call and we'd love to help. We can also recommend quieter times of the day with less foot traffic and fewer distractions, helping set your pet up for the best possible experience 🐾💙

🐾❄️ WINTER MODE: ACTIVATED ❄️🐾

As the temperatures drop (well... Townsville's version of "drop" 😅), it seems our staff pets have all reached the same conclusion:

Blankets are life.

From dogs wrapped up like tiny burritos, to snug sweaters, dressing gowns, and one random tutu, the Vet2UrPet pet crew is taking winter comfort very seriously.

We're not saying they're dramatic... but some of them are acting like it's snowing outside. ❄️😂

Now we want to know...

How does your pet tackle winter?
Are they a blanket burrito, a fashion icon in knitted jumpers, a professional bed hog, or completely unfazed by the cooler weather?

Share a photo in the comments, we'd love to see your pets rocking their winter style! 🐶🐱💙

🎉🐾 Happy Birthday Nurse Jemma! 🐾🎉

Today we’re celebrating the lovely Jemma and all the kindness, care, and calm she brings to the Vet2UrPet team 💙

Whether she’s cuddling nervous patients, helping behind the scenes, or keeping our socials up to date, Jemma is always there with a warm smile and a big heart for animals🐶🐱

We’re so lucky to have her as part of our team and hope her day is filled with cake, cuddles, coffee, and maybe just a little bit of peace from the chaos of vet life 😆🎂☕

Please join us in wishing Jemma a very happy birthday! 🎈✨

🦷🔄 Roles officially reversed for the day 🔄🦷

Usually you’ll find Dr Ryan doing the dental while Nurse Kaylah keeps a close eye on monitoring… but today they decided to swap jobs 😆

Kaylah stepped up to the dental table like she’d been waiting for this moment her whole life, while Dr Ryan took over the monitoring duties with the very serious responsibility of watching numbers and running the anaesthetic 👀📱

Safe to say the patient was in very good hands either way 🐾💙

One of the best parts of vet life is having a team who can jump in, help each other out, and keep the day fun while still providing amazing care for your furry family members ✨

🐶🐾 Scooting & A**l Glands – What’s Going On Back There? 🐾🐶

If you’ve ever seen your dog dragging their bottom along the ground (also known as scooting), you’re not alone. While it might look a little funny, scooting can be a sign that something is irritating your dog’s rear end.

One of the most common causes is full or irritated a**l glands.

📍 What are a**l glands?
Dogs have two small scent glands located just inside the a**s. Normally, these glands empty naturally when a dog passes a bowel movement.

⚠️ When problems occur:
Sometimes the glands don’t empty properly and can become full, blocked, or infected, which can cause discomfort.

Signs to watch for include:
🐾 Scooting on the floor or grass
🐾 Excessive licking or chewing around the tail area
🐾 A strong or unusual fishy smell
🐾 Swelling or discomfort near the rear end

💡 What should you do?
If you notice your dog scooting frequently, it’s a good idea to have them checked by your vet. They can examine the area and safely express the glands if needed, and make sure there isn’t another underlying issue such as allergies or infection.

While occasional scooting can happen, frequent scooting usually means something isn’t quite right.

🐾🛁 Slim’s Spa Day Before Surgery 🛁🐾

When little Slim arrived to us through TFRA, it was pretty clear he’d had a rough time lately... his coat was dirty, matted, and very overdue for a good scrub 🥺

Before his castration procedure, Dr Rachael and Nurse Luke decided this sweet boy deserved a little pampering session first 💙 So out came the tub, the shampoo, and the teamwork! 🚿✨

Safe to say Slim was looking VERY fresh and fabulous by the time he headed into surgery 😎🐶

We’re happy to report that Slim’s procedure went well and he’s recovering beautifully with plenty of love and care. Now all that’s left is for this handsome little man to find his forever home 🏡🐾

Slim will soon be up for adoption, so make sure you head over to the Townsville Foster and Rehoming Animals page to keep an eye out for him 👀💕

From scruffy to squeaky clean... Slim is officially entering his glow-up era ✨
