Cat Friendly Clinics

We are proud to hold the ISFM Cat Friendly Clinic silver status accreditation

We understand it is stressful when you have to bring your cat to see us. This is why we are proud to announce that we have been accredited as a Cat Friendly Clinic, which is an international award. 

Stress is a contributing factor to many illnesses in cats and this is why we are proud of our Cat Friendly Clinic status. We try hard to minimise as many causes of stress as possible for our feline friends when they visit the practice.

As all of our cat owners know, cats are not small dogs and they have very specific needs. This is why we have worked hard to achieve Cat Friendly Clinic accreditation to reassure our clients that our vets, nurses and reception team understand cats and their requirements. all of our vets and nurses understand that cats need to be approached in a gentle, calm and empathetic way to minimise their anxiety during their visit to us.

A stay in hospital is not something that we humans particularly enjoy – we would rather be in our own homes. It is the same for our cats. So when they do need our help by coming to the clinic, we do as much as we can to make our patients comfortable and stress-free. Our cat patients are hospitalised in a separate ward so they are not near the dogs. This ensures they get all the rest they need in a calm, quiet environment.

When you visit us, don’t be surprised if we ask you to sit in the quiet designated cat area of our waiting room. As a Cat Friendly Clinic we have separate dog and cat waiting areas to help reduce your cat’s stress.
