❄️WINTER WELLNESS❄️ - Winter is here!

Hamilton Small Animal Veterinary Centre

❤️Do You Have A Pet Showing Signs Of Old Age?❤️

🐈‍⬛ Is your cat more than 11 years old?
🐕 Your small dog more than 10 years old?
🐩 Or your big dog more than 7 years old?

Then these loyal companions are considered SENIORS.

The older we and our pets get the more predisposed to disease we all are but old age is not a disease itself. Many of the issues that come with getting older are treatable.

We recommend younger animals see their vet a least once a year for a health check up, but senior pets we recommend every 6 months, as things can change faster when they are older.

🥶Winter time and cooler temperatures can bring out the aches and pains, so why not have a Winter Wellness Check for your senior fur family members.

Arthritis is particularly common in our senior pets and is just a part of the aging process. Arthritis can be managed, so if you have noticed your pet is stiff in the mornings, jumping and playing less or your cats fur is matted particularly around their back end, give the team a call on 07 8492963 and book them in for a Winter Wellness Check!💕

🐾❤️Your Pet Will Thank you For It❤️🐾

This handsome gentleman is ‘Scamp’ who will be eleven this year and has been a wonderful client of ours for many years!🥰

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.

This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.

Do you think this ban is reasonable?

Have you come across many roadworks sites recently?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

The frustration of seeing a detour sign partway through your journey on the main highways possibly the new way forward when it comes to roadworks.

One of the latest areas to have a section of the road blocked off is State Highway 1 between Putāruru to Tokoroa as part of a massive renewal project that extends down to Waiouru.
