💙 Happy Veterinary Receptionist Day! 🐾
Today we’re celebrating the wonderful people who are often the first voice you hear and the first face you see when you contact VicVet.

Our reception team does so much more than answer the phone — they coordinate emergencies, juggle a very busy hospital, support worried pet owners, keep our clinical teams organised and make sure every patient is welcomed with care and compassion.

It’s a role that takes patience, empathy, organisation and a whole lot of heart. 💙

To our incredible reception team — thank you for everything you do for our patients, clients and the entire VicVet team. We appreciate you! 🐶🐱🐾

🌾 Small seeds. Big problems. 🐾

Grass seeds might look harmless, but they can cause serious trouble for our pets. They can become lodged in paws, ears, eyes, noses and even travel beneath the skin.

Keep an eye out for signs such as excessive licking, head shaking, sneezing, swelling, redness, discharge, squinting or difficulty breathing.

If you suspect your pet has a grass seed, don’t try to remove it yourself — it can be pushed further in. Keep them calm, prevent rubbing or scratching, and contact your vet for advice. 💙

🐍 Snake bites are a serious emergency for pets. You may not see the bite, and symptoms can develop quickly — or be delayed.
If you suspect your pet has been bitten, keep them calm and still, and get to an emergency vet as soon as possible.
