Hello Community, we have a very beloved kitty that has gone missing. Please let us or the owners know if there has been a sighting.

Hello Community,
Koda is a 2 year old, short haired brown Tabby. He has green eyes and is neutered but has no collar or microchip. He went missing from Margaret Drive on 5th Dec and his family are missing him terribly.

Have you seen this handsome chap?
Please give us a call if you think there has been a sighting.

Our Dr. Nick is truly a man of many talents!
Though Omokoroa Pet Vets specializes in small animals, Dr. Nick encountered a little lamb in need of his care. Clover was born with a cleft palate, which made it impossible for her to feed properly due to the deformed hard palate in her mouth. Dr. Nick believed he could help her.
She was bottle-fed until she grew strong enough for surgery. With the support of his dedicated team, Clover underwent a procedure to repair the malformed hard palate, allowing her to eat grass and drink from a trough like the rest of her herd.
Merry Xmas Clover! 🥳🥳🥳

This wee man has been handed into the clinic. He was wandering Omokoroa Road, crossing the roundabout near the pharmacy.
He doesn’t have a microchip. We will be at the clinic for about half an hour otherwise he can stay the night and be collected tomorrow.
Anyone know this chap? Senior, neutered male.

Ever been curious about how clinics come up with their rules for repeat prescriptions for veterinary medicines?
Here's the scoop: Just like with our own doctors, veterinarians have legal requirements they must follow before issuing repeat prescriptions, set by the veterinary council, not the clinics.
If interested in the Vet Council laws, take a peek at this link:

https://vetcouncil.org.nz/Web/Web/1.Support-and-Information/Public/FAQ.aspx

Vet clinics can be audited, and vets might face investigations for not adhering to these laws. So, please bear with us if we can't provide medications beyond these limits.

Repeat Prescription Requirements:
• If your pet has a chronic disease and needs to be on continued medical treatment, we must physically see the patient for a recheck every 6 months to continue prescribing for another 6 months.

• For most medications (excluding controlled drugs) the maximum quantity allowed for collection at one time is 3 months supply. A 3 month repeat prescription will be provided until the next recheck is due. To take the sting off these appointments they are at reduced fees. Any further testing (blood tests etc) is optional but may be discussed if there has been a change in your pet’s health in the last 6 months.

• Controlled drugs are the exception, where a maximum of one month supply at one time applies.

• And did you know? To wisely use antibiotics and fight resistance in both humans and animals, repeat prescriptions for antibiotics aren't a thing. We need to know exactly what type of infection we are treating to select the correct antibiotic every time. If an alternative to antibiotics will be effective, this will be used first.

Please also note:
food, flea treatment, consultations and repeat prescriptions need to be paid in full at the time. Unfortunately, as a small privately owned business we cannot run credit accounts for these purchases. We reserve credit agreements and payment plans for emergencies and must be approved by Nick and Raewyn.

If your pet needs continued medication, a range of treatments to suit your pets’ needs will be offered. We cannot offer payment plans on treatments outside your budget. As an alternative, Afterpay or insurance plans may be helpful in this situation.

Hi Community, we had this wee soul dropped off this morning. Hit by a car on corner of Barrett Road and Highway. 10weeks old, male, tabby and white, not neutered, no microchip. Not acting feral at this stage but had a bang on his head. Does he belong to anyone? Please contact the clinic on 07 548 1150. We are stabilising him at this stage but will investigate his injuries further.
