340

Did you know that your cat and dog can donate blood to save lives? Yes, even animals require blood transfusions!

If your dog:

  • Is healthy and up-to-date with vaccinations, heartworm prevention and worming
  • Is aged between 1-7 years old
  • Weighs at least 17kg and is not overweight
  • Has a friendly demeanour

If your cat:

  • Has good disposition
  • Weighs at least 4 kg. Not overweight
  • Between 1 to 8 years of age

Then they're eligible to donate blood!

In return you'll get a:

  • vet check
  • blood test
  • a gift of your choice (Royal Canin pet food, parasite treatment, or vaccination)

SASH has locations in: Alexandria, North Ryde, Northern Beaches, Western Sydney, Adelaide, Gold Coast and Sunshine Coast.

Technically not a "deal" but I hope this can spread awareness that cats and dogs can donate blood, and times are tough for a lot of people this is a great way to save money on your feline or canine friend's vaccination or get some food.

  • mine would prefer the Red Cross hotdogs.

  • How do they get informed consent from my cat for blood donation?

    • How do they get informed consent whenever they visit a vet?
      How does a Dr get informed consent from a baby?

      • Well it's one thing if I take a baby to fix a cut on its arm, it's another thing if I take a healthy baby to get it's blood extracted

        • You mean harvested

        • Blood is taken from babies all the time…… Babies are forced to suck on a breast……….

    • Meow for yes, no meow also for yes.

  • If your cat:
    * Has good disposition
    * Weighs at least 4 kg. Not overweight
    * Between 1 to 8 years of age

    My cat fails all three

    • I mean, define good?
      My cat is a jerk, doesn't pay tax, and despises my children, but… she hasn't killed in aaaages, so she has that going for her.

      Fails the other points though, she's robust and old AF, her hatred keeps her going.

      • Made me laugh.

  • My dog has been treated at SASH – Small Animal Specialist Hospital over the past three years. They have saved my dog’s life multiple times, and I can confidently recommend them to any pet owner looking for exceptional veterinary care.

  • Peanuts relative to how much they charge the other end.

    • This!

      No backstory as its still too raw to write, but was charged $4000 for a blood transfusion..

      • No peticare.

        Makes you consider pet insurance.

  • Our black labrador used to donate regularly at Sash, probably 6-7 times before he passed the maximum age. Was a pleasure to do it and he was always treated well.

  • Would love to participate but my dog is too small to be 17kg and will never reach that!

    • Not with that attitude!

  • I'd argue this is definitely a deal and a very good one. Thanks, OP!

    • More like an opportunity to get you on the backend.

  • TIL

  • My dog will donate blood and I will get a parasite treatment, it’s a win-win.

  • Plenty of destructive feral cats they could start with if they really want more supply quickly …

    • Nothing like a transfusion of whatever diseases the street cat has while your animal is already in dire straits.

      • Most street cats are healthy except for undernourishment if that.

        Ferals are usually in the wild like bush cats. Can be very large and healthy except for worms etc.

        With cat laws etc less fleas etc. it would better if they could get them a home or run a cat sanctuary/cafe.

        They could get blood in exchange for care of the cats. That would be a good deal for many.
