It's not just a box to tick-it's all about keeping your fur-baby safe, comfortable, and healthy!

🧬Here's why it matters:
- Health Monitoring: We check weight along with body condition so we can spot any hidden issues early.
- Correct Dosage: Pets grow, gain or lose weight-so their medication needs might change too!
- Medication Safety: We make sure the medication is still working well and not causing side effects.
- Legal Requirement: No new scripts can be issued without the 6-monthly check-up (it is a SAVC & SAHPRA regulations).

🥼What happens at the check-up?
- Full physical exam
- Weight & body condition check
- Blood tests (if needed)
-Chat with your vet about any concerns or new medications

Remember: You can still collect your pet's medication monthly, but a new script needs a 6-month vet visit.

Call us today to book your pet's script check-up - because prevention is always better than cure! 🐕💛

We know that the hardest part of loving a pet is saying goodbye. For many families, being able to do this in the comfort of their home, surrounded by love and familiar warmth, brings some peace during such a difficult time.

We offer at home euthanasia to ensure a calm, stress-free, and compassionate farewell, which includes:

❤️ A peaceful goodbye in the comfort of your pet’s home, minimising stress
❤️ A veterinarian will arrive at your home at a scheduled appointment time
❤️ They may administer a sedative
❤️ A small intravenous catheter is gently placed in the pet's forearm where the Euthanaze is injected.
❤️ The procedure is quick and painless. It is a peaceful procedure that ensures minimal discomfort for the pet.
❤️ You can be there and to say goodbye and comfort your pet throughout.
❤️ Cremation services afterwards.

This service is provided with the deepest respect for both pets and their families.

If you’d like to learn more or talk through what this process involves, please reach out - we are here for you.
