Welcome to the Mittagong Veterinary Hospital website. We have been serving the Mittagong and surrounding Highlands community and its animals since 1978 and now extend this service to the web. Healthy animals go hand in hand (or paw in hand) with healthy people. It is our privilege to be part of the vital relationship that exists between humans and those animals entrusted into their care - and seek to serve you in all humility, and professionalism.
Within this website you will find out (among other things) who we are, the mission we have, our hours, contact details, a description of the facilities and services we offer. We will be growing our on-site health care information as well as providing www links to sites which we believe are of value. It is our aim to provide an educational experience of value with respect to the care of your animals in health and sickness. Our aim is to have a dynamic site with new information added for your benefit.
Please come in and browse around

If you hadn't already noticed - spring is the time for female cats (queens) to start 'calling'. Below is a description as to the queen's cycling. Book in now for your female cat's desexing!
How long does a cat's heat phase generally last? The number of days a cat is in heat
the phase of the reproductive cycle when the queen (female cat) is
receptive to the tom (male cat) varies. If the queen is not bred, the
heat phase may last as little as 2 days or as long as 19 days. In the
early spring, some females do not completely come out of heat. Instead
the signs of heat just wax and wane.
