Welcoming a new puppy or kitten into your home is one of life’s greatest joys. Their playful energy, curious nature and unconditional love quickly make them part of the family. But just like babies, young pets need a strong start to stay healthy and happy, and that begins with their first vet visits. At Hope Island Veterinary Surgery on the Gold Coast, we’ve created Puppy and Kitten Packs that include core vaccinations, a complimentary kitten / puppy health check, and a range of added perks to give your pet the healthiest start possible.
Why get an early puppy health check?
Puppies are born with some immunity from their mother, but it fades quickly. That’s why vaccinations are essential in the first few months. They protect against serious diseases like parvovirus, distemper and hepatitis, conditions that can be life-threatening if left untreated.
Our $250 Puppy Pack includes:
- Core vaccinations – Valued at $250
- FREE First Tick & Flea Prevention Treatment – Valued from $34.30
- FREE First Heartworm Injection – Valued from $80
- FREE First Health Check – Valued at $95.20
These early treatments help prevent common parasites and illnesses, giving your pup the best chance at a long and healthy life.
Puppy school available on the Gold Coast
Socialisation is just as important as physical health. Puppies go through a critical learning phase between 8–16 weeks, where they form lifelong behaviours. Our Add-on Puppy School Package ($165) helps your pup learn basic commands, build confidence, and interact safely with other dogs and people. Puppy school helps your pet build trust and reduce anxiety in unfamiliar situations.
What about kitten health checks?
Kittens are just as vulnerable to illness as puppies. Feline flu, calicivirus and panleukopenia are common threats, especially in multi-cat households or outdoor environments.
Our $200 Kitten Pack includes:
- Core vaccinations – Valued at $200
- FREE First Health Check – Valued at $95.20
- FREE Nextgard Spectra – Valued at $33
- Cat-Friendly Waiting Room
We’ve designed our space to be calm and quiet, helping kittens feel safe during their first vet experience.
Why get an early kitten or puppy health check for your pet?
Early health checks allow vets to spot subtle issues (such as heart murmurs, dental concerns or growth delays) before they become serious. It’s also a chance to discuss nutrition, desexing, microchipping and parasite control tailored to your pet’s lifestyle.
Throughout November and December, we’re offering puppy & kitten packs with free offerings (including a free puppy health check) to help new pet owners get started with confidence. Whether you’ve just adopted or are preparing for a new arrival, we’re here to support you every step of the way.
