Thank you to everyone who donated generously to support rehabilitation efforts for wildlife affected by the recent bushfires.
We are happy to report that $442.40 was raised by our recent bushfire relief fundraiser – as Wilston Vet will match this dollar-for-dollar, the total amount raised is $884.80.
These funds will go directly to NSW WIRES (Wildlife Information Rescue and Education Services) to provide immediate assistance to cover the costs associated with the rescue and care of animals affected by the devastating fires.

Thanks also to those who donated on line and a big thank-you to our Wilston Vet chefs. We managed to raise a total of $500 for the RSPCA with our cupcake day. A special thank-you to Dr Karen who was the baker who baked all the pet friendly cupcakes! Millie will agree that they were sensational! Look out for next Cupcake Day in August 2020

HELP US FIND HENRIETTA! Last night brazen thieves stole our 120 kg bronze giraffe “Henrietta”. She has been gracing the entrance of our surgery for three years and George(our other giraffe) is missing her terribly. If you saw or heard anything PLEASE call us asap on 33573882. A 10 ft high giraffe traveling in the back of a ute would be highly suspicious, and hopefully someone saw something.
