Public Service Announcement: Due to the influx of rats over the last few months we have seen increased number of rat baits in the Eastern Suburbs and just wanted everyone ot be really mindful with their pets and keeping them away from any form of rat bait or poison. We've recently been told about bait in Rose Bay and yesterday in Five Ways it was on the pavement as the bait boxes had been crushed.

🩸Rat bait acts as an anticoagulant (prevents the blood from clotting) by depleting the body’s supply of vitamin K. It can take anything from 1-5 days after ingestion to begin to see the signs of intoxication.

What are the signs of rat bait toxicity❓
Pale gums or small pin point haemorrhages on the gums
Lethargy
Bruising under the skin
Bleeding from the nose
Continued bleeding from small wounds or cuts
Vomiting and or diarrhoea
Coughing or respiratory difficulties (laboured or rapid breathing)
Lameness
Seizures or muscle tremors

🆘If you suspect your pet has eaten rat bait take them to your vet immediately. At Jersey Road Vet Hospital we have a COAG machine which specifically helps to test for clotting times and is very, very quick to get results. In emergency situations, speed is very important and this analyser works very quickly.

A healthy cat's breath shouldn't clear the room. 😮‍💨 Persistent bad breath is most often caused by dental disease, including gingivitis, periodontal disease, and painful tooth resorption, which affects many cats. 🦷 It can also signal problems elsewhere in the body, such as kidney disease or diabetes.

Because cats are experts at hiding pain, smelly breath may be the only clue. 🐱 If your cat's breath has turned foul, book a check-up so we can find the cause.

🦷Why your pet's dental health is so important...Dr Annabel from Jersey Road Vet explains. To celebrate dental pet month we are offereing new and existing customers a FREE pre-aneasthetic blood test (PABT) worth $195 when you book in a regular dental scale and plish with us during August.

🩸A PABT is required prior to every surgical procedure requiring an anaesthetic. A PABT helps to diagnose any hidden internal health issues before a procedure. It checks organ function (including liver and kidney disease), anaemia and dehrdration, blood glucose levels and potential diabetes. It's a good marker for overall health so really vital in the continued health management of your pet.

Water additives can be a helpful addition to your dog's dental care routine, with some products shown to reduce plaque and freshen breath. 💧 However, they're a supporting act, not the star. Nothing replaces daily tooth brushing and professional dental care. 🪥

Look for products carrying the Veterinary Oral Health Council (VOHC) seal, which means they've been independently tested for effectiveness. 🔎 Unsure which products are worthwhile? Ask us for a recommendation.

Dogs who love chewing balls, sticks, or bones often wear their teeth down over time. Slow, gradual wear may be harmless, as the tooth can protect itself by laying down extra dentine. 🦷

Rapid wear, however, can expose the sensitive pulp, causing pain and infection, often with no obvious signs. ⚠️ If your dog's teeth look flattened, have dark centres, or are chipped, book a dental check.

Swapping abrasive toys like tennis balls for softer chews helps prevent further damage. 🎾
