Habitat offers a variety of all natural premium diets, treats and whole food supplements providing the essential ingredients for the optimal health of your companion.

Oncology +

Animals do not know they have cancer. They do not know it's chemo day. They do not suffer from the same degree of nausea that people do from chemotherapy. We offer chemotherapy for the treatable cancers with appropriate staging in conjunction with non-traditional therapies and surgeries.

We have many patients who are alive today because of multi-modal therapy for cancer, including surgery, chemotherapy, herbal therapy, acupuncture and nutritional therapy. We utilise a specialist oncology consultation service when indicated for the best patient outcomes.

Operating Microscope for Micro-surgery and Ophthalmology Procedures +

An operating microscope allows significant magnification at high resolution in order to perform microsurgeries of eyes, urethras, ureters and exotic animals. We cannot practice without it!

Referral +

We work to secure the best match between client, patient and veterinary specialist. The areas of specialty referral are: internal medicine, ophthalmology, dermatology, behaviour, cardiology, cancer therapy, and advanced orthopaedic and soft-tissue surgery.

Senior Care +

Finding a balanced wellness plan for your pet will allow them to live a long and healthy life. We routinely consult clients with senior pets on diet, exercise, behavior changes and quality of life. Using an integrative approach we keep senior animals living longer than ever! When it’s time to make the hard decision to let your pet go we are available to talk you through the process and make sure they are as comfortable as possible in their last days. For this reason we do offer euthanasia as an end of life choice.

Surgical Services +

For routine procedures or treatment of a disease requiring anesthesia or surgery our staff will provide the best possible care. Patients are monitored continuously by a veterinary nurse and assessed with state of the art equipment allowing us to adjust to any changes that might occur. After surgery a smooth recovery and pain control are our top priorities. Every pet is watched closely to ensure they are comfortable and recovering normally.

Ultrasound +

Ultrasound enables us to give quick answers in emergency situations and identify underlying diseases. We use ultrasound to identify in emergencies:

• Pericardial effusion (fluid around the heart)
• Ascities (fluid around the organs in the abdomen)
• Pleural effusion (Fluid around the lungs)
• Abdominal tumours (spleen, liver, intestines, kidney)
• Pregnancy (Fetal heart rates are an indication of distress… same as people!)
• Pancreatitis (inflamed pancreas frequently causes vomiting and can be life threatening)
  

Vaccinations +

Vaccinations on the right schedule are crucial to your pet’s overall well-being. They contribute to a long and happy life, minimize the risk of several preventable diseases, and can save an animal from pain and their owners from the cost of expensive treatments.
