Testimonials
Mrs. H
East Dereham“Absolutely the best. When my mum and dads dog had to be put to sleep at nearly 16 years old it was the most dignified way imaginable. We were all given time with Polly before and after she slipped away.”
Mrs D

Happy #TabbyCatDay! 🐈 ![]()

'Tabby’ refers to a coat pattern, rather than a breed. There are different types of tabby pattern coats, such as a mackerel or spotted, but the true sign of a tabby pattern is the ‘M’ shaped markings on the forehead. Does your cat have this? ![]()

🇪🇺European Pet Passport Update🇪🇺![]()
![]()
📆Prior to the 22nd of April 2026, some dogs were able to travel from the UK to Europe using a European issued pet passport.![]()
![]()
✈️Generally, this is where people have a second home and can register with a local European vet to have a passport issued, have rabies vaccinations etc. ![]()
![]()
❌If your primary residence is in the UK, as of the 22nd of April 2026, all cats, dogs and ferrets, leaving the UK (unless for commercial movements) must have a valid export health certificate. Existing European passports will not be a valid document. ![]()

🌍If you are travelling to Europe you are advised to check the entry requirements with the relevant authority in the destination country, and also the DEFRA website.
