Makes mine too! ❤️

I’m addicted to this channel. Sure wish Chris was still apart of Bondi Vet

@@BondiVet I will be just like you when I grow up!

@@BondiVet this is so sad

@Jenny Lopez Calderon yes it is thank you 😊

Yeah and it was suprising that they can live up to 8 years in captivity. Thought they live just 2 years or so.

@@Miranda.T my dumbo rat lived 6 and they normally only live 2-3 yrs

@@lufhie2310 shut up

@@katiekattay6538 why don’t you

Yup, I was really spooked!

Same

@Vicki Crisler Absolutely. I wouldn't want to see him in any other profession. You have to have a passion for caring for any animal. It's a passion that you literally have to be born with.

He gets what the pet and the owners are going through. It's not just a job to him. Animals are important. Families are important. He does not trivialize what everyone is experiencing. I adore this man. His staff are all very compassionate and caring. Bless the chipmunk and her family. She is lovely.

I love Scott I'd move from Canada to the uk for him to be my vet

Thank you for this. Bondi Vet needs to post trigger warnings for those of us who aren’t resilient enough to cope with animal loss at the minute.

@@therewillbecatswithgwenhwyfar Um. READ THE TITLE! Good grief.

Ive lost many of my dogs in my life 3 dead and some are given to people we trust

You might die before your cat you never know

What kind of affective problems can someone have to feel any empathy for a cat, A cat!. An animal that couldnt care less if you die

@@DashzRight stfu cats are loving creatures u love them they love u back

@@DashzRight How cold do you have to be to not care. Animals may not feel the same way as humans, but they have more width in their emotions than you can see. They feel pain, loneliness, love... I actually don't know anyone who doesn't have any empathy for animals, some more some less but none is kinda weird. My cat was always there for me, he grew up with me. He followed me to school, cared for me when I was alone and crying and now even after 14 years falls asleep right next o me on his pillow.

Had the same, but "just" a ferret. I admit to loving ratties, but cannot deal with them having such a short life span :'(

Aww I hope your beautiful rats live forever 💓💓💓 I actually really love the idea of having rats.

Every animal has a personality not just cats and dogs

Had the same with my leopard gecko. “She’s just a gecko” I had two surgeries done on her, one a tail tip amputation, the other a spay due to her oviducts bursting and fusing to her kidneys. She passed during that recovery but that gecko was my life for the three years I had her after rescuing her as a full grown adult after she was dumped at a pet store severely overweight.

Pet rats are one of the cleanest ever to own I had to pet rats but like you saide their Lifespan is very short I use to like playing with mine all the time I had to take one to the vet it was having trouble breathing they said it's common in rat's cost me $90 people say to me I'm crazy for paying that but when you own any animal you need to be responsible and take care of them whether it a rat or not they still need care

Speedy

@@SirDoodsAlot she is talking about the pig.

Vet : tape rubber chair feet to pig stumps for rest of its life -PERFECT-

Same for guinea pigs and chinchillas. I had a guinea pig that actually died of a broken heart because his mate died. His mate was extremely tiny like maybe a runt. She never grew bigger but was loved just the same.

I'm not sure about that. I rescue squirrels and they definitely don't act fine when something is wrong. One squirrel that I hand raised, Clyde, would come to me for help whenever something happened to him out in the wild. He once ripped off a toenail and it got infected. Then he once broke off his top teeth. And twice he had bad bouts with mites. Each time he came inside for a couple weeks to heal and be on antibiotics (though he was inside with the tooth incident for a couple months). But each time he would stay in his pouch while he wasn't feeling well, and would only peek out with sad eyes. He wasn't sad from being indoors b/c he'd even come to stay inside when really bad storms were brewing. I knew he wanted to come inside b/c he'd stay by the patio door until I opened it and then he'd go on his own to the big indoor cage and would crawl inside to get in his pouch. Then I had 2 wild yard squirrels that came to me when one had a massive tooth infection and the other was near death and we weren't sure what was wrong with him. The squirrels had known me for a couple of years because I fed them daily from my hands. They even knew their names and would come if I called them. Unfortunately Honey w/the infection was too wild and had to be put down because her teeth needed to be removed and there's no way she could have survived in the wild without them and she definitely wouldn't have let me care for her indoors. She was also pregnant too which was heartbreaking. Poor thing relied on me for weeks to feed her soft foods until she simply couldn't even eat applesauce due to massive throat swelling. Sketchers ended up dying overnight at the Vet. It appeared he had been attacked by another animal, but even the Vet didn't think that's what caused him to die. They think he had something else going on. But both squirrels came to me and refused to leave my patio because they knew I would help them. Sketchers actually let me pick him up, which is unbelievable since he was 100% wild. I didn't even have to use a trap. Sorry for writing a book. I just really miss those characters so much.

Cats also. Even though they are predators, they are also prey, so can't afford to show weakness. Your cat could be very very ill and show no signs. Regular vet checkups are a must.

@@Sheltieshangrila I'm sorry. My condolences. I'm so glad they had you and they felt safe in your presence. That is a special bond, especially for the animal. Two thumbs and two toes up for that. Never stop being that kind of person and thank you for who you are.

Same thing with birds. They hide illness because in the wild they will get killed by the other birds For the fear of illness not to spread.

@Thomas Wilson I have a feeling she's in each comment section on this channel too...

damn y'all rude as hell. i hope y'all don't talk to your elders like this irl

@@kingkat_ Don't worry. I respect elders. But this account is just a little... strange.

"CPRed a chipmunk" haha that's funny. But the right thing to do!

The chipmunk segment aired about 4 years ago, so both Chippy and Speedy are waiting at the rainbow bridge for their mum.

@@SevCaswell omgggggg, I lost my rabbit recently and they had a card that came with her ashes talking about the rainbow bridge. She will be up there too 🥺

That’s right both of them are at the rainbow bridge until I meet them again. I will never forget my babies.

@@manpreetrai7436 you were a wonderful mum to them both, and you gave them extra time and a happy life, God Bless you and yours.

@@manpreetrai7436 they’ll be there when you’re ready to be there with them :) They’re watching over you, across that bridge. They love you very much

I hope Beyonce gets better.

I'm so sorry

I'm really sorry, hope she gets better!!

So sorry to hear that!!

I am so sorry for you and Beyonce. ☹️

I was thinking that as an adult it would be worth while making trotters for stubby

Honestly, even with 3D printed trotters, I don’t think she could truly have a good quality of life. I would have put her down. I love animals and I appreciate wanting to give them a chance but sometimes you have to think about the animal’s quality of life as they grow. A piglet is very different from a full grown pig. Do you think a plastic foot would be able to support a full grown pig?

@@kaylizzie7890 I couldn't say b/c I've never owned a pig. But the owners seem very compassionate and you have to assume they'll make the right call if it comes down to Stubby not having a good quality of life.

@@Sheltieshangrila I generally don’t trust people to do the right thing. In my experience, people are motivated by emotions and selfishness. I’ve seen “kind-hearted” people do selfish things for love. My aunt had a dog that was really suffering. Arthritis, diabetes, blindness, etc. but she wouldn’t but the poor thing out of his misery. She clung to that dog for 15 years (at least 3 years after he started to suffer) because she “loved him”. That’s not love. Our dog got diagnosed with debilitating arthritis and we put him down the same day because that’s what was best for him.

I sure hope she has a good, long life and get proper prosthetic legs. Putting such a healthy animal down is like putting a baby down for being born without legs.

Same here. I had one in my cheek. It makes you feel crap

Having seen parts or all of the recent videos already two or three times as they've been uploading and remixing these over and over again since the corona pandemic, I can only say that I wish we could have an update on some of the patients. Such as here, did Chippy live painlessly at least for the rest of his likely very short life? Full original episodes usually include very different animals but the remixes are often themed instead, so perhaps that's why you feel it is unusual for them to look after animals other than dogs or cats, while I tend to feel like there is a serious lack of dogs shown at times as they've focused on "exotic pets" and rodents.

My bunny had an abscess too but his regular vet was out of town so I had to take him to another vet. He was very skittish and sadly had a heart attack during the exam. They tried to bring him back but couldn't. He was the sweetest bun.

Thank you x

That's exactly how I lost my rabbit Fluffy, she got cancer in her hind foot and was misdiagnosed as having a wart several times until it was revealed to be both cancer and too late. We grew up together bc I got her when I was 9 and she was a baby.

A rat named Mittens (black, with white fur at her paws, so it looked like she had mittens) was my first childhood pet/first close bond with an animal. I think she somehow knew I was a young child, because I swear it was like she babied me. They're such sweet little blobs. I can't remember exactly how many rats my family has had in my lifetime (we don't have any now, but when I was a young child we had a long run with 'em), but a number of them got cancer. It's tragic how common cancerous tumors are for ratties. D: Though, despite some animals having short lives can be a con, in a way they're actually very important for existing just how they are. They only need a few years- sometimes not even that- to live a life full of love and happiness which they share with us along with their little personalities. It might contribute to how I view the adoption of senior animals. A couple years with an animal can be a priceless treasure. A lifespan can be naturally short, or at the later points of a life... quality of time is what matters in the end, and what we remember the most fondly.

Same it’s so small but I can only hope that’s a travel cage

It most likely is a travel cage because we had rabbits and they lived in a hut and a child was on duty after school for the bunny and got the bunny too riled up and it bent over its paw and a similar cage was used to take it too the vet so I'm thinking it must be a travel cage

agree 100% . and even more so, brought into a rowdy classroom with young kids. not ideal for a delicate bunny. im hoping it is a cage used for travel and its not in the school every day.

I absolutely hate classroom pets. Especially with animals like rabbits where most of their socialization and enrichment is in the evening when nobody would be there, it's neglectful in my opinion. That cage is entirely too small as well I agree with you, but hopefully it is just a travel cage.

As a bunny mum with 2 free roam bunnies I feel the same way!

Lol that is way of saying disability disability's have its advantages and you can be proud of them

😔

Good point!

Don't mess with the squirrel. They tend to play rough.

Squirrels dont like to share😂😂

I know the feeling the squirrels in my area are so greedy and classless. I was standing outside and a squirrel dropped an acorn on my head. It hurt.

Hope you're puppy is ok

The old ones used to show it

Ikr? because KZfaq is weird it would be demonitized tho. :(

monetasAAATTTIONNNN

Sometimes they show it, sometimes they don't. It's a battle of the hardcore and the squeamish among fans. KZfaq is a factor, too.

10 points to@@NorthernOxmoor !!!

I’m doing great thanks. It was hard to let her go. Speedy also passed a year later.

Vet techs! 😁

And mine 🥰

That's a travel cage. Those are the loved bunnies
