RSPCA Victoria’s low-cost pet vaccination days return to Wyndham next month.

The clinics run by RSPCA Victoria vets are aimed at making veterinary care more accessible for people and their pets.

For $59.00 pets will receive their preventative vaccines and be checked by an RSPCA veterinarian to ensure they are fit for their vaccinations.

Pet owners can also receive professional advice on how to keep them healthy now and into the future.

The first vaccination day will take place in Manor Lakes at the Manor Lakes Community Learning Centre on Thursday February 15.

The Arndell Park Community Centre in Truganina will host the following vaccination day on Wednesday March 6.

RSPCA Victoria Head of Prevention Rebecca Cook said they were looking forward to visiting some communities for the first time.

“At our recent clinic in Tarneit, we saw 16 local pets and their owners, and we are looking forward to meeting more Wyndham pets and their owners,” she said.

“By the end of January, we will have held 46 low-cost vaccination events across Melbourne and saved each pet owner at least $50 on average per pet.

We want to help people care for their pets by increasing their access to veterinary and preventative care, which supports lifelong bonds among families with their cats and dogs.”

Appointments at each clinic must be booked online in advance with limited places available. Those with more than one pet must book a separate appointment for each animal.

RSPCA said due to nation-wide shortages of the F3 vaccine, the team are currently unable to vaccinate cats, but can still do basic health checks.
