🐱🖤 A little Churu goes a long way! This sweet kitty got into some chocolate at home, so our team induced vomiting to help remove what she had ingested. As part of treatment, we also administered activated charcoal. Activated charcoal can help bind certain toxins in the gastrointestinal tract, reducing how much the body absorbs. We mixed a little Churu with the charcoal to make it more appealing, and this clever girl happily ate all 24 mL all by herself! 😻 We are always looking for ways to incorporate Fear Free techniques into our care to make treatments as positive and comfortable as possible for our patients. Sometimes, a little extra love (and Churu!) makes all the difference! ❤️🐾 #fearfree #vetmed #vettech #veterinarymedicine #churu

Join me for a run down of some ways we restrain compliant cats at the vet! Any cat that is fractious is restrained using tools like towels and cones, for their safety and mine! If people are interested I can try and work on filming restraints for more difficult patients. #vettech #vettechlife #vettechtok #vettechsoftiktok #vetmed #veterinarymedicine #cats #catpeople #feline #catrestraints #cathandling #catwrangler #catmom #catdad #training #cattraining

This #orphington chicken came in with a swollen crop, soft-shelled eggs, and no appetite - what we found on the X-rays shocked us: she had eaten screws and nuts! Our #exoticvet explains how dangerous zinc toxicity can be and why chicken-proofing your yard is a must. 🐓 #chicken #hen #chickencare #vetmed #veterinarymedicine #vetstudent #veterinarian #littlecrittersvet

This is a brilliant idea! Happy Tail Syndrome is notoriously difficult to treat. Bandages usually slide off the tail due to the forces exerted during wagging and the skinny shape of the tail, and we can’t really ask a dog to simply not wag their tail! In many cases of Happy Tail, we end up having to amputate because we can’t keep the tail protected. 😔 For those who aren’t familiar, happy tail syndrome, also known as “kennel tail” or “bleeding tail”, is a painful condition that occurs when a dog’s tail is wagged so vigorously that it hits a hard surface and causes injuries. These injuries can range from minor bruises to severe tissue damage, including open wounds, broken vertebrae, damaged tendons, and injury to the tip of the tail. I’ll definitely share this video with any future cases of happy tail I see! #thehonestvet #honestvetadvice #honestpetadvice #veterinarian #veterinarymedicine #vetmed #dogtor #dvm #vettech #vetstudent #vetnurse #pets #petsofinstagram #dogsofinstagram #dogmom #dogworld #mansbestfriend #petcare #vetcare #dogmom #doghacks #dogtips #vettips #happytail #happytailsyndrome #happytails #geniushack #bestinvention

When the medial saphenous vein suddenly disappears, it’s not always the vein. Over-tightening the leg or pulling it too far back can collapse the vessel and make it impossible to hit. A small adjustment in tension usually brings the vein right back and saves you re-pokes. Technique matters more than force. 🐈 🐈⬛ #vetmed #vettechtips #veterinarymedicine #veterinarytechnician #medicalskills
