Thank you for all the support over this last year. Our little vet clinic has grown over this past year and this is thanks to the loyal support of all our super valued clients.
It has been a difficult year with Covid continuing to affect us all in many ways, so I feel we need to focus onn the positive aspects of our lives.
Di and I have travelled far and wide sterilising dogs and cats. We have had a wonderful year doing our welfare work for the following organizations:
Funda Nenja
Transkei Animal Welfare Initiative
Cats of Durban
Phoenix Animal Care and Treatment
Animal Anti Cruelty League
We would like to thank these organizations for all the good work that they do, and for all the pets’ lives that they change in a very positive way.
Thank you to each and every person who helps.
We are also excited to have our very own Veterinary Nurse on board now. Shelley and I have worked together on and off since we qualified from Onderstepoort. She is working for me full time and is always available for advice and a chat when necessary.
We are currently in the situation where we have outgrown our little clinic, but our landlords are busy building bigger premises for us with road frontage, and no stairs for our precious patients to walk up and down. We look forward to moving into our new premises early in the New Year.
I would like to remind everyone that the incidence of Rabies in KZN is very high. Please remember to vaccinate your pet against Rabies – this is a free service so everyone can and must get their pets done.
We do require you to make an appointment please.
Rabies kills people every month in South Africa, so we can’t afford to be complacent.
Rabies vaccinations can only be done on pets 12 weeks and older. If you are at all unsure about when your pet is due for vaccination, please give us a call, or whatsapp us a picture of your pet’s vaccination card so that we can check for you.
Parvovirus season is also upon us. It is vital to get your puppies vaccinated as soon as you get them. In an ideal situation we would like to vaccinate every puppy at 6, 9, 12 and 16 weeks. This is not always possible but please be aware that your puppy can catch this disease very easily. It is highly contagious but preventable.
Our trading hours during the festive season are as follows:
Friday 24 December – Closing at 12
Saturday 25 December – Closed
Monday 27 December – Closed
Tuesday to Thursday 28 – 31 December – we will be seeing patients on an appointment basis only, and will
not be on site at the clinic all the time. Please call or whatsapp us for an appointment and liaise with us.
Saturday 1 January – Closed
We would like to wish you all a very happy Christmas and New Year. Keep safe and we will see you all in
the New Year.
Kind Regards
Lee
