失去你的宠物

尽管我们都不愿意考虑这种可能性,但我们都会面临失去我们挚爱宠物的一刻。有很多情绪——悲伤,宽慰,内疚,甚至愤怒。这是悲痛过程的正常部分。需要数周或数月的时间来克服这些感觉,来恢复心灵的平静和接受现实。

人道的安乐死

有些人宁愿我们出诊到家里帮他们的宠物进行安乐死。这可以通过打电话给我们(02)9498 3000来安排。我们通常每周的大部分时间都能来照顾你和你的宠物。

这是一个非常悲伤的时刻,但我们知道我们大多数人会比我们的宠物活得更久,在某个阶段需要面对这个决定。在这艰难的时刻,我们的兽医都很有同情心和温和。

如果你不确定什么时候做出安乐死的决定来跟你的宠物说再见,你可以预约去看我们的兽医,或者在电话里讨论这个问题。我们是来帮助你的,所以你不是一个人在做决定。

你想在安乐死期间出现吗?

如果你不想在安乐死中出现,我们的工作人员会善待你的宠物。一些主人认为这是他们可以为他们的宠物做的最后的支持,因为他们和宠物有着强烈的感情,但是其他人无法做到。如果你对安乐死的过程感到害怕,请让你的兽医给你介绍这个过程的所有步骤,这样你就可以决定你是否愿意留下来。我们将能够满足您的需要,无论您是否与宠物在一起渡过安乐死或在安乐死之前就跟它们说再见。

丧失宠物后的支持

有时失去宠物感觉就像失去了自己的家庭成员,特别是当一个强烈的感情关系已经形成。因此,失去宠物会令人非常沮丧,也会不同形式地影响人们的情绪。有时,有必要寻求专业顾问的专业支持,这些顾问经过专门训练,帮助人们克服失去心爱宠物的痛苦。

多年来,我们的工作人员推荐David Foote兽医,在丧亲病咨询方面有更深入的资格认证。他曾经帮助过许多我们的客户,在过去,他经历过这样的悲伤,并成为了一名兽医,他喜欢动物,并且能够理解你所经历的一切。David Foote医生可以通过电话咨询0425281424或查阅他的网站www.davidfoote.com.au。

请与我们联系以寻求帮助或进一步了解私密的专业丧亲的支持。我们是来帮忙的。

火葬服务

有尊严的葬礼是我们所有人都想为我们爱宠争取的。然而,由于区委会的规定,并不一定可以将你的宠物埋在家里,所以有一系列可供选择的方案。

如果一张照片和一些记忆已经足够,我们可以安排一个例行火化,在那里你的宠物被火化,但没归还骨灰。我们向你保证,你的宠物会以一种人道的方式火化。

如果你希望你的宠物骨灰被归还,我们可以提供私人火葬。

以下是一些私人火葬的选择:

  • 石瓮
  • 骨灰盒(你可以撒下骨灰)
  • 木箱(密封或未密封)
  • 木制相框(让你的宠物的照片放在盒子的外面)
  • 砂岩牌匾-如果你已经把你最好的朋友安顿好,并且想要永久的记忆,我们可以安排一个美丽的牌匾。

悼念

如果你想在我们的网站上向你的宠物致敬,请告诉我们。你可以创建一个小视频,发送一些照片,写几句话或一首诗,我们可以在我们的博客上让你的宠物永垂不朽。请用电子邮件向我们的网站发送信息。

还可以通过兽医科学基金会,以你的宠物的名义捐款。这笔钱用于研究尚未治愈的宠物疾病,或者需要进一步了解某种疾病或治疗的信息,所以这是一个很好的安排。请到他们的网站上进一步的查阅捐赠信息https://www.alumniandfriends.usyd.edu.au/VSF.asp

向你的孩子解释宠物的损失。

父母们常常很担心失去的宠物可能对他们的孩子造成的影响。重要的是, 如果您能适当地处理这些情况,你的孩子将会更好地后面的类似伤痛,而这类情况将会给小孩减少悲伤。

安乐死的另一种表达方式是“让宠物入睡”。虽然这句话在成年人中是可以接受的,但不要让小孩子听到,因为他们可能会感到困惑,认为常规的睡眠意味着有人将要死去,或者认为狗是睡着了,而不是死了。

不要对你的孩子撒谎。如果你就这么重要的事情对孩子撒谎,孩子可能会对你的话语失去信任,你会为孩子树立起不诚实的榜样。

孩子们会有种自责的倾向,即使孩子参与了宠物的死亡,很重要的是,你必须保证这不是孩子们的错。孩子可能会责怪父母决定让他们的宠物安乐死,他们没办法正理解背后的原因。这应该在安乐死之前解释给孩子,这样他们就可以认真对待,和他们所爱的动物说再见了。

2-3岁的儿童通常对死亡一无所知。他们应该被告知他们的宠物已经死了,不会再回来了。通常,这个年龄段的孩子会欣然接受另一只宠物代替死去的宠物。

4-6岁的儿童对死亡有一定的了解,但可能认为这是暂时的。悲伤往往以尿床、食欲不振和睡眠困难的形式出现。

7-9岁的儿童通常意识到死亡是不可逆转的。他们可能会对死亡及其后果感到好奇。父母应该能够诚实地回答任何可能出现的问题。这个年龄段的孩子们在遭遇悲伤时,会在学校学习困难、叛逆或变得黏人。

10-11岁的儿童理解死亡是自然的,不可避免的,因此,这些孩子通常对死亡的反应与成年人相似。

青少年的反应与成年人相似,但可能表现出否认悲痛,甚至目无表情。重要的是要认识到,这些年轻人可能正经历着没表现出来的真实悲伤。

I've been taking my cat to Gordon Vet since she was a kitten. Every vet we've seen have been wonderful and have provided the best service and advice. They're very thorough and will always make sure that your pet feels comfortable. The receptionists are super friendly and the online booking system is easy to use!

Recently visited with our little cat on a late sunday morning. We called in just before they were due to close & they were happy to stay back and check over our cat so we didn't have to run to the emergency vet. DR Helen was incredibly kind and professional. She eased our worries & treated the medical issue with our cat. I feel very confident bringing our cat into see any DR at Gordon Vet Hospital as I know each staff member is genuinely caring and passionate about helping animals.

We looked for the vet with the least amount of 1-star ratings in our local area. To our surprise there are a lot of shocking reviews out there for vet clinics. Gordon Vet Hospital had the best rating by a long shot.So we called first thing yesterday morning and managed to get a booking pretty early in the morning for our cat whose condition was getting rapidly worse.Everything about our experience was lovely. From the empathetic receptionist, to the vet who is taking care of our cat who has kept us informed twice a day about her condition and took the time to answer all our questions.The cost estimate was given up-front and was very reasonable compared to every other practice.We couldn't be happier.-M

Really good with dealing with Covid by inviting patients to stay outside and they come to you. They have lots of people helping out. The only thing is that it is quite expensive compared to other vets.

Dr Catherine Chen is amazing and the only vet I trust with my three cavalier girls. Other vets have always been judgemental, but Catherine listens and works with you to come to a compromise to what is best for my girls going forward. Last time my tri went in to have a dental and she was completely happy to be there even went back in with the nurse wagging her tail while we were waiting outside! We even drive the distance since moving as we completely value Catherine's skill, expertise and manner.

Not that the dog is always entirely happy to go there, though they run a great operation with some. Convenient, clean and very communicative. Never do I doubt that the staff their live working with animals.

First time going to Gordon Vet Hospital with my little pooch. Parking was fairly easy. The front staff very friendly. We had Vet Dr Imogene who showed genuine interest in my pooch & was very knowledgeable when asked alot of questions. Dr Imogene made us feel that we could trust her to do what is best for our pooch. Very happy to go back.Price point - they would be slightly on the higher side.A good place for your best friend 🐶

Thanks to all the team at the Gordon Vet Hospital. I transferred my dogs here a couple of year's ago from another local vet clinic as a quote for some oral work was significantly cheaper and have never regretted it. Not only good value, but excellent care, great follow up and support and my two dogs love the free liver treats - making the visits a positive experience.

They are the most understanding and caring group of people I have met. After my dog had to be put to sleep a sympathy card was sent with her paw prints and bit of hair attached and beautiful words of sympathy. A lovely thought. I would recommend this practice to anyone.

My family and I have lived in the area for over 30 years and we have never been to any other practice. The care and compassion the vets have shown towards our babies has always been of the highest standard. I would particularly like to thank Dr Coggins for the care and compassion she has shown towards me in recent months with Salem (who unfortunately was PTS this past Sunday) and also with Lilah. This practice has a real gem in her!

Well it's never nice to have to take your beloved pet(s) to the vets but sometimes you just have to. Gordon Vets are similarly priced to others in this locale but they are well organised, off street parking and the vets are compassionate about the care of animals. Even separate entrances for dogs and cats ! See attached photo. Educated, literate cats queue up outside (ir's actually the practice's resident cat).

Extremely happy with Imogen and the team. I had lost ALL faith in vets after going to GreenCross.Thankfully Gordon Vet Hospital surpassed all our hopes and expectations. Imogen was incredibly caring, clinically competent and finally solved the issue our cat had.The vet nurses and reception team seemed genuinely happy and were super friendly each time we’ve returned. Follow up care after the surgery for our cat was like night and day compared to what we’d been through at our old vet. Unlike at GreenCross where the final price always ended up being at the top of the quoted range, at Gordon Vet Hospital the quote was far more reasonable and the price ended up at the lower end of the estimate. Highly recommended this vet.

I can't rate Gordon Vet Hospital any higher. I took my 11yr old staffy in for surgery with the beautiful Imogene Ewen (amazing surgeon) and was managed by incredibly professional front office staff (Maddie). My dog, Coco was in the best of hands. The after care service is detailed and their love of animals is so very clear to all who enter. Exceptional service for the North Shore.

I took our little girl Coco for her very first vet visit yesterday. Dr Helen gave Coco a thoroughly check-up and provided me with useful information as the first time puppy owner. Coco is now enrolled in the puppy school and will return back for her 2nd vaccine in a couple of week!

Gordon Vet has looked after my golden retriever since she was 9 weeks. Everyone has been amazing and caring with lots of experience. I have been able to ask any questions and always been welcome.Even one day when she stepped on a bee in the evening, they stayed open until we got there and helped her get it out.Thanks to all the staff :-)

Exceptional veterinary hospital. I have been taking my dog here for many years and although I now live in the Eastern Suburbs, I still drive across town to see the Vets at Gordon. The staff are highly skilled, compassionate, friendly and helpful. My 9 year old dog has had 2 knee operations (1 on each knee!) and the outcome of these surgeries far exceeded my expectations. I have been incredibly impressed with the care provided during all of our visits. I would highly recommend Gordon Vet Hospital.

Compassionate, caring and highly skilled veterinary surgeons who treat their patients and owners with respect. The nursing and administration staff are efficient and remember their patients by name which is a lovely touch. A lovely vet practice which despite our Golden Retriever Finn’s complex medical history, is always welcoming to him and he never displays any signs of anxiety when attending. Dr Helen is lovely and a firm favourite of ours!

We found a stray, agitated dog in front of our house last night. We phoned but got no help from the Council ranger who gave two options: tie him up in front yard overnight or "let him loose, he'll find his own way home" :( So we phoned Gordon Vet: they stayed open a few minutes so we could run him up and he could have a bed and dinner. Thank you Gordon Vet Hospital, hope he gets home soon!!! :)

Absolutely love the service here. I switched from other Vets to this Vet as the staff here are quite attentive and really care about your furry baby! I have basically seen most of the Dr's here and all of them so far have been fantastic, friendly and fun to speak with! Easy to locate and enough parking available! 5 Stars indeed!
