Vets?

Do you keep to one particular Vet, when and if the need should arise with your pets?

Or are you happy to see whichever Vet is available?


I will only see one particular Vet, who I trust with his knowledge, experience and skill. (Would only consider someone else if he was away and a situation could not wait)!

Re: Vets?

Same here Rainbow. There are 2 Vets that I always try and see because they know Hatti inside out and upside down!!!! Sadly, they are both leaving within the next two weeks One is going to Australia and the other on Maternity leave...am going to miss them. Having worked at the Vets, there are others that know Hatti so one of them will have to take over!

In an emergency, I wouldn't care who I saw of course......

Re: Vets?

Hi Merz, Isn't it a worry and frustrating when the very two that you trust the most are leaving!!


There used to be a second Vet, who I would be very happy to see, but sadly he moved up North. (I did tell him it was a long way to come if I needed his services)!!!

Hopefully you will find one of the others to take their place with your trust.

Re: Vets?

We always see the same vet too

Re: Vets?

I know the other Vets very well except for the 2 replacement ones. One I have known for a long time and she said she would look after Hatti

Your second Vet hasn't moved up my way by any chance?

Re: Vets?

Having a cat, I probably don't visit the vet as often as dog owners. Usually Cassie's visits are just for booster jabs so I don't mind which vet we see.

Re: Vets?

I used to see the same vet .... a small one man practice; he was great! But he retired, and the practice I go to when needed is larger: see whoever is available. And as it's an emergency visit, don't really care, just someone qualified!! My former vet and I do not believe in annual booster shots for indoor cats.

Re: Vets?

I have had the same vet for my dogs since he started up on his own about 25 years ago. I always see him if practical. He comes to the house when it is something serious. I first met him when he was looking for surplus hospital X-ray equiment where I worked. He invited me to see his new surgery and he was so proud of his set-up which he had started on a shoestring. We became friends and he is a thoroughly no nonsense, honest person who I trust completely with my dogs.

Re: Vets?

I see the same dog dr. vet for the dogs and the ferrets and an avian vet for Reg. I'd never take Reg to a non avian vet.

Re: Vets?

Yes I always see the same vet, although have seen the others if something can't wait and my vet is not in.
