Vets and Catsitters

[ths0105]

Hi,

We will add two Burmese kittens to our household in January - does anyone have recommendation for a good vet in the area or have recommendations for a catsitter?

Many thanks!

We have been using The Neighbourhood Vet Surgery by Peckham Rye (google, they have good website)and Jane at Catcalls (also good site)has been looking after our kittens for last 2 years and would recommend both. Jane at Catcalls came round, met the kittens before we first left them and will visit twice a day if you leave them when very young.

Hi I use cat calls as a cat feeding service locally

Norwood Road Vets are the best I've found in the area. Ellie and her team are particularly good with cats.

we use the Neighbourhood Vets too, no complaints :)

for occaisonal cat sitting we use Lisa (bowwowmiaow)... or Auntie Lisa as we now refer to her when talking to the cat... (there's a big pawprint on our foreheads - we're such cat slaves lol)

Thank you for all the responses and private messages - very helpful!

Has anyone had a catflap fitted and could recommend a fitter?

Thanks!

Also Animals at home. My business uses their animal ambulance service and my partner is using them to feed his cat twice a Day when he goes away for a month in Jan. Other clients of mine have used their pet sitting services, they are CRB checked, insured, established and highly recommended.

You won't find many people on here recommending Lordship Lane Vets.

Don't go to Lordship lane vets, they are terrible!! Had a very bad experience there and will never go back. They certainly don't care about animals!!

Ouch I'm always suspicious of claims like this. If this is a genuine grievance it seems strange you didn't bring up your concerns with the vet directly. At least give them the chance to rectify any of your concerns before slandering them in public . If it was me at Lordship Lane Vets I would see if claims like yours started when a competitor opened their business and ask the ED administrator to investigate.

For what it's worth, Pat The Cat, Mike The Cat, and Sonny The Cat have been pleased, so far as one can tell, with the care that they've received at Lordship Lane vets. ("What did you think?" I asked them. Yawn, look to side. High praise from a cat.)

Ditto Jane and team at CatCalls: Brilliant gang, SO reliable, can only recommend.

I have also been happy with Lordship Lane vets - when my cat suddenly came down with a bad urinary infection they were able to see us as an emergency at 8.30, unlike the Neighbourhood Vets who couldn't offer anything until that afternoon. My husband and I both work so this flexibility from LL vets was hugely appreciated.

We use Julia at Pawspals http://www.pawspals.co.uk/ she's brilliant and treats our cats as her own, we also use Lordship Lane vets and have had no problems with them, in fact they've been great and remind me when check up etcs are due which is brilliant.
