Services
Our veterinary surgeons, veterinary nurses and support staff have almost forty years' collective experience working exclusively with cats. Jenny graduated from Glasgow Vet School in 1998 before going to work in a mixed practice in the North East of England. She then took a year out to travel and locumed throughout Britain for a further year on her return.
All surgery consultations are by appointment for your convenience. We offer a range of times from 8.30am to 6.15pm Monday to Friday and between 9am and 12 noon on Saturday. For routine visits, such as vaccinations, it's advisable to contact us a few days in advance of your preferred attendance date.
Veterinary Medicine has its roots back in the days when the horse was vital for transport, communication and farming. If the horse couldn't function, livelihoods were affected so it was essential to have someone who knew how to get the horse back to good health. Although we might not be impressed with the thought, veterinary surgeons were essentially the "car breakdown service" of their time!
We've been very lucky to have excellent client loyalty and we've shown our appreciation of that by running a client loyalty discount scheme whereby the longer you've been with us, the larger the discount, even if you own just one cat. We also wanted to find a way of saying thank you to our existing clients for recommending us to their friends so we also run the "Introduce A Friend" scheme.
Whether related to boxing your cat, the journey itself or the sights and smells of a veterinary clinic, here at The Cat Clinic, we understand only too well how stressful visits to the vet can be for some cats (and their owners!). Because of this, we have decided to trial 'Cat About Town' our new home visiting service for our patients, offering them the opportunity to have routine examinations performed in the comfort of their own home.

The staff was so friendly and accommodating - I am brand new to the area and had two kitties suffering pretty bad "pet lag" from their Transatlantic flight, showing worrying signs of lethargy, disinterest in food, and dehydration. The Cat Clinic helped me get registered and made time to see the kitties THAT morning, giving them an IV and anti nausea shot that helped them get through the rest of their malaise. The girls are now settled in to their new digs, are totally adjusted, and most importantly - perfectly healthy - which I completely credit The Cat Clinic for.
What a wonderful vet!

Absolutely wonderful vet clinic. Been taking my cat here for over a month and we could not be happier with the treatment she's receiving. Staff is very friendly and professional. I feel like my cat is getting the treatment that she needs ,and the doctors really care. Doctors in this clinic will not push unnecessarily large amounts of medications on your cat ,and if your cat is nervous - they'll make sure to space the appointments out as much as possible to reduce your feline friend's stress while still providing excellent care. Could not recommend The Cat Clinic enough.

I've been using The Cat Clinic for about 4 months now for my elderly cat who has renal failure, heart murmur and dodgy teeth. The first vet was pushing me to get quite pricey dental work done (which I was prepared to pay for if needed) but she has left now and the second vet has been brilliant, making clinical decisions clearly that are best for my cat and putting my trust back in this practice. I'm happy to recommend them for your feline needs.

At the superb age of 18 we had to say a final goodbye to Minnie and all the staff at The Cat Clinic played such a huge part in making this as peaceful and respectful as possible. The staff did all the tests they could and helped us kindly, professionally and respectfully come to this decision that was the right thing to do for Minnie. We dropped her off about 11am and tests were taken the same day to help with the final part of her journey. The staff not only looked after our Minnie but us also. We had to leave her for tests and I thought she would be petrified without us there but when I went
