Vets4Pets
I don't know about you guys, but every visit to the vets is stressful. Even if it's just for an MOT, until you know everything is okay, it's not an enjoyable time. I have a Vets4Pets near me. Their website looks great, etc. But the waiting room fronts onto a main road - near to three pubs! So while you're taking your…

Vets - Beeston, Nottingham
Can anyone recommend a good vet in Beeston, Nottingham; or surrounding areas if especially good? I was with The Priory, Beeston with my old cats for 18yrs; but due to their crappy attitude over a mix-up in their accounts, which they tried to blame me for, I refuse to go back and need another vet. Anyone got any suggestions?

Cat & busy road?
Hi all, We have a 10 week old kitten and currently in the process of buying a house. Unfortunately it's the closest house to the main road & although it's a 'lane' the traffic is very fast. If we're successful in getting the house what can I do to keep her safe, if anything? I'm reluctant to keep her as a 'house' cat as I…

Bad tempered
We have the most gorgeous and majestic long haired tortoiseshell you could ever hope to see. She's always been a grumpy cat however and has never been one to allow herself to be picked up and cuddled. We got a new kitten last September and her reaction was adverse but we persevered with her. Unfortunately she hasn't bonded…

Pet Insurance rise.

I have no problems paying for good insurance but with HSBC the rise used to be just pennies. I also got a new axa quote…

Cat seems worried about losing kitten!
Just wondering if my cat's behaviour is normal, really. She seems to panic slightly when her 11mo kitten goes out of sight, even for a minute. It's really cute actually: she always runs to find him when he's gone into another room, and calls to him in a weird high pitched voice I've not heard her use in any other…

Cat Food for Sensitive Tummy
Hi all, My cat has always been a bit of a fussy eater and tends to throw up on quite a regular basis - have had her to the vets a few times but they've advised nothing wrong with her, she just has a sensitive tummy. She will randomly decide that she no longer likes a certain brand or flavour of cat food that she was fine…

It is really annoying as all through the…
