Please Note

Desexing is the single best way to prevent pregnancy in our pets, which reduces the number of dogs and cats in shelters or homeless on the streets. Desexing is especially important for pets who spend time outdoors unsupervised. Surgical desexing is a safe, routine surgery where the reproductive organs are removed under anaesthesia. 

We use robust pain management protocols that greatly reduce discomfort before, during, and after the desexing procedure. We are passionate about keeping your pets comfortable and pain free!

All cats and kittens should receive a core vaccination that provides protection against deadly feline enteritis (panleukopenia) as well as calicivirus and herpesvirus (cat flu). This is typically referred to as an F3 vaccination. To keep your cat safe from disease, we recommend keeping them indoors until they can be fully vaccinated. 

All dogs and puppies should receive a core vaccination that provides protection against the most deadly diseases: canine parvovirus, distemper, and hepatitis. Dogs and puppies that meet other dogs are at risk of contracting canine cough, therefore we always recommend vaccinating against Parainfluenza and Bordetella as well. This combination vaccination is typically referred to as C5, and this is what we provide at The Vet Project. 

A microchip is the most effective way to ensure your pet is reunited with you if they are ever lost. A microchip is the size of a grain of rice and is implanted in between your pet's shoulder blades. The chip can be scanned to retrieve your contact details if they are turned in to a vet clinic, council pound or shelter. Please keep in mind that a microchip is NOT a GPS tracker, so keeping your personal contact details up to date on Central Animal Records is vital to being reunited with your pet.

Our furry friends are always at risk of contracting fleas, mites, and intestinal worms from the environment. Regularly providing them with preventative treatment is the best way to protect them, your home, and yourselves from infestation. There are many treatment options available on the market and they are not all created equal, so please ask us or your local vet for recommendations!
