Feline Services
We are proud to have received Silver ISFM (International Society of Feline Medicine) Cat Friendly Clinic accreditation at our Hastings vet clinic. This prestigious accreditation reflects our commitment to providing the highest standard of care for our feline patients, ensuring they receive a stress-free experience during visits. Our team is trained in feline-specific handling and care, and we’ve designed our clinic environment to minimize anxiety for cats, offering a calm, quiet space that’s tailored to their needs.
As we continue to grow, we are also prioritizing cat-centric spaces in our new clinic build at Somerville. These specially designed areas will make it easier and more comfortable for our clients to transport their pets and ensure a smooth transition into the clinic, improving the overall experience for both pets and their owners. Whether it's feline-friendly practices or convenient facilities, we are dedicated to providing the best care possible for all our patients.
