FREE NEW KITTEN & PUPPY HEALTH CHECKS

FREE NEW PUPPY AND KITTEN HEALTH CHECKS IN TOWNSVILLE

Welcoming a new puppy or kitten into your family is a wonderful experience, but the first few weeks can feel a bit overwhelming.

From choosing the right food to setting up parasite routines, there are plenty of vital decisions to make. At Townsville Veterinary Clinic, we want to ensure you have expert support from the very first day.

To give your new companion the absolute best start in life, we offer complimentary new puppy and kitten health checks for all pets under 16 weeks of age. If you have recently brought a new pet home and they are not quite due for their next round of vaccinations, this introductory check is the perfect opportunity to touch base. We never charge a consultation fee for these introductory relationship-building chats, because we believe in supporting our local animal community from day one.

WHAT IS INCLUDED IN YOUR FREE HEALTH CHECK?

This dedicated consultation is run by our experienced veterinary nursing team and is designed to assess your new pet's baseline health while providing clear, practical guidance.

DURING THE COMPLIMENTARY VISIT, OUR TEAM WILL PROVIDE:

Nose-to-Tail Physical Exam

A gentle check of your puppy or kitten’s eyes, ears, skin, coat, and overall body condition to check they are in good health from the start.

Weight and Growth Monitoring

Weighing your pet to establish a baseline and ensure they are growing at a healthy, steady rate.

Personalised Advice

Practical, honest conversations covering essential behavioural shaping, toilet training, and early socialisation steps.

Diet & Nutrition Guidance

Professional advice on feeding schedules and selecting the best nutrients to support a rapidly growing junior animal.

ESTABLISHING CRUCIAL TROPICAL PROTECTION

Living in Northern Queensland means our young pets face specific regional health risks that require immediate attention. During your free health check, we place a major focus on setting up robust, climate-appropriate preventative care:

OUR FREE PUPPY PROHEART PROGRAMME

Heartworm is a highly prevalent and serious disease in Townsville. We will introduce you to our special programme, which provides the first Puppy ProHeart injection FREE (when given at the same time as an initial puppy vaccination) to protect your dog from mosquito-borne heartworm infestation.

TAILORED PARASITE ROUTINES

The warm, humid Townsville climate creates an ideal breeding ground for fleas, ticks, and intestinal worms. We will outline the safest, most effective preventative products for your pet's age and weight.

FUTURE VACCINATION PLANNING

We will review your pet’s historical paperwork and establish a precise schedule for their upcoming core vaccinations to protect them from dangerous conditions like Parvovirus and Feline Respiratory Viruses.

BUILDING A LIFETIME OF POSITIVE MEMORIES

One of the greatest hidden benefits of visiting us early is that it teaches your puppy or kitten to love coming to the vet. By keeping this initial visit entirely positive, filled with gentle handling, cuddles, and treats, your pet builds a wonderful core memory with our clinic. This simple step drastically reduces stress and anxiety for all of their future routine veterinary visits.

Please note that this complimentary service is a wellness check designed for healthy, newly adopted young pets. If your puppy or kitten is actively unwell, injured, or requires medical treatment, a standard veterinary consultation fee will apply.

Give your new family member the perfect foundation for a healthy future.
