看看Sushi是如何愉快地吃下VSRx為她特別調配的藥物！ “沒有人喜歡給貓吃藥！我們的小女孩Sushi患有發炎性腸病，經常需要以藥物治療。她非常喜歡VSRx 調配的美味藥物，現在我們不是互相推讓誰給她去餵藥，而是大家都爭著要去餵她。這使我的生活變得輕鬆，而Sushi也沒有任何的不安感。真正的拯救了我們！” – Nicole Wyre 醫生

Take a look at how Sushi is happily gobbling up her compounded medication from VSRx!
“Nobody enjoys giving pills to a cat! Our little girl, Sushi, has IBD and frequently requires medications. Now, instead of fighting over who HAS to give her medication, we fight over who GETS to give her the medication because she loves the compounded chews from VSRx so much! It has made my life so much easier and so much less stressful for Sushi. Truly a life saver!” – Dr Nicole Wyre

As of this morning on 9th February 2021, VSH has now received a total of 8 suspect poisoned dogs, all of which have been at Cyberport (Pok Fu Lam) on 7th February 2021. We were able to send one patient home this morning but still have 3 of the suspect poisoned patients hospitalized in our VSH HK ICU with round the clock care from our ICU team, along with specialist care from Dr Erik Zager, VSH’s Emergency Critical Care Specialist, and the Emergency Service team led by Dr Jo Mockford the past two evenings.

We still do not know exactly what poison is being used, but we are collaborating with multiple Hong Kong veterinarians, veterinary toxicology specialists abroad, and the Hong Kong Police to help narrow down and identify the poison, leading to possible life-saving treatment.

We want to continue to recommend all dog owners to avoid Cyberport (Pok Fu Lam) and the Pulse (Repulse Bay), be aware of reported poisoning cases in Sai Kung Country Parks, keep your dog on a short leash at all times, keep an extra eye on suspicious items on the ground, potentially use a basket muzzle if needed, and know the location of your closest emergency veterinary hospital. If you suspect your dog might have been exposed to poison, do not attempt to give any home treatments, please bring your pet to the emergency veterinarian immediately.

If anyone has any information related to the poisonings, please contact the Police Hotline at 3660 6611 / 9824 1367 (24-hrs) or email to [email protected] and the SPCA Inspectorate at hotline 27111000 or email to [email protected].

VSH Emergency Services are open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week on both sides of the harbour. Please call 2408 2588 if you have any questions or concerns.

Recently it was reported that a dog of one of the people diagnosed with Covid-19 has also tested weak positive for the virus. There are still a lot of unknowns, but here is what we DO know:

- The World Health Organization and all major animal health organizations are reporting that pets do not get sick from Covid 19
- Dogs and cats have their own, species-specific Corona viruses
- There is no evidence that this dog passed the virus on to their family
- The dog is not showing any signs of being sick
- We have not seen an increase in unexplained respiratory illnesses in dogs or cats recently

Remember, this is a new virus and there has not been enough time to do a lot of studies. There have been no published studies as to whether the Covid-19 test is even accurate in dogs and cats. It’s possible - and likely - that this is just a false positive.

For now, stay calm. Make sure to take precautions for yourself (washing hands, avoiding crowds, etc). There is no need to buy face masks for your pets or to isolate your pets. Please, as always, wash your hands after cuddling or petting your pets. The entire veterinary community is monitoring the situation closely and is committed to keeping you and your pet healthy and safe.
