Call up for some advice about my rabbit that was not eating. was told by this place its norm for them to do it could be that a female bunny is on heat around us.
We told the person on the phone how he was putting his head in water and not drinking and thy keeped saying he will be all right.
How wrong thy was.
2 hours after talking to this vet i rung up the 24hour vent and was told to take my bunny in right away but it was to late.
The advice thy gave ended up killing my bunny.
For years we have been taking out dogs to this vet but now we are changing to a new one.
This bit here is for the lady that was on the phones on the date of 1/3/19 between 4-7pm. You are no vet you are a murderer.
If you are going to give this vet a go i would first seek advice from other vets to.

The Vetcall team are fantastic with our two cats. One in particular is quite aggressive but they are so understanding and calm when dealing with him. We also don't live near linwood anymore and are happy to drive across town for them as they offer such high quality care and are so thorough with them- we wouldn't go anywhere else! I have also seen the amazing work they do with Cat Rescue Christchurch. You can tell they genuinely really care about animals :)
