🥶 Winter Is Coming… and They’re Counting on Us. 🥶

As the cold nights settle in, many pets will be facing winter without the warmth and comfort they deserve. While we bundle up in cozy blankets and warm homes, countless animals are wishing for just a little bit of that same comfort.

You can be the reason a tail keeps wagging this winter. 🐾

We are collecting new or gently used blankets and bags of pet food to help keep vulnerable pets warm, safe, and fed during the cold months ahead.
Please consider donating and helping us wrap these sweet souls in love this winter.

From the bottom of our hearts — thank you ❤️

A huge thank you to Lauren and Garry Venter for spoiling us with these beautiful personalised coffee mugs ☕💛

The team is absolutely thrilled!
Even better, the days of staff debating whose mug is whose are officially behind us 😂 With our names printed on them, there’s no more confusion… or creative borrowing!

We truly appreciate your generosity, Lauren and Garry. You’ve definitely made our coffee breaks that little bit more special! 🙌✨

We at Brackenhurst Veterinary Hospital are proud to announce our partnership with AARCC Alberton Animal Rehabilitation & Conditioning Centre 🐾

This collaboration ensures that all our orthopedic surgery patients receive the vital rehabilitation and physiotherapy they need after surgery. Post-operative physio plays a critical role in recovery, and for clients who wish to continue therapy long-term, treatment can seamlessly carry on with the AARCC team.

Why is physiotherapy so important after orthopedic surgery?

• 🦴 Improves healing and joint mobility by preventing stiffness and scar tissue formation
• 💪 Restores muscle strength and prevents muscle wastage during recovery
• 🚶 Encourages correct movement patterns, reducing compensatory injuries
• ⏱️ Speeds up recovery time, helping pets return to normal activity sooner
• ❤️ Reduces pain and inflammation in a controlled, safe manner
• 🐕 Improves long-term surgical outcomes, especially after cruciate, fracture, or spinal procedures

We’re excited to give our patients the best possible start to a strong, pain-free recovery.

✨ Here are some photos of our newest orthopedic patients already on their rehab journey! ✨

🐾 LOOKING FOR A FOSTER OR FOREVER HOME 🐾

On the 23rd of January, a kind Samaritan brought in this stray kitten after he had been hit by a car. The poor little guy was very frightened, but after treatment and lots of care, he is now doing really well ❤️

He is officially ready to go into foster care or find his forever home.

If you would be interested in fostering or adopting this sweet boy, please contact Brackenhurst Veterinary Hospital.

Please share to help this little survivor find a loving home 🐱✨

On the15th January, a compassionate client rushed a mama cat and her two tiny kittens into our care after a suspected MVA. She was injured and frightened.

Thanks to immediate treatment under our NPO Grace Fund. and lots of love, this incredible mum has made a wonderful recovery. Sadly, despite everyone’s best efforts, one of her kittens didn’t survive. 🕊️

Her remaining kitten is now thriving and growing stronger every day. Mum and baby are safe, loved, and doing beautifully in foster care.

This is why rescue matters. Thank you to everyone who helped give this little family a second chance. 🐾💛

At our clinic, we understand that deciding when to say goodbye to a beloved pet is one of the most difficult decisions an owner can face.

Our veterinarians are here to help guide you through this process with honesty, compassion, and care. When a pet’s quality of life is declining and comfort can no longer be maintained, euthanasia may be the kindest option to prevent further suffering.

We encourage pet owners to have open conversations with their vet, ask questions, and take the time they need to make the decision that feels right for their pet and family. You don’t have to face this moment alone — we are here to support you every step of the way.

If you have concerns about your pet’s comfort or quality of life, please contact our clinic to discuss your options. 🐾

We truly appreciate our clients so much! We were gifted this amazing coffee machine from Mr. and Mr. Helmand, along with their paws-itively wonderful Pekingese Beans. Thank you so much for your generosity and kindness — it truly means a lot to us.

Fair warning though… if you see the staff running around extra fast today, it’s not an emergency — it’s just the caffeine kicking in! 😂⚡️
