Meet our pets

We love our own pets so much we thought we would like to share our ‘pets gallery’ with you!

James' dog Arthur (assistant practice manager)

James' dog Arthur (assistant practice manager)

Arthur joined the practice in 2012 and quickly established himself as the brains in the accounts department. Not known for athleticism (unless a visitor arrives at the office) Arthur’s favourite hobbies include singing and sleeping next to the radiator! Arthur has a delicate constitution which means a tightly controlled diet is required for all our sakes.

Scott's cats Twinkle & Tigi

Scott's cats Twinkle & Tigi

Tigi (on the right) is a tortishell Burmese who likes nothing more than sunning herself in the conservatory! Twinkle (on the left) was named by one of Scott’s daughters! She is Tigi’s daughter and was born on the day before Christmas on Scott’s daughter’s bed! She is also a tortishell Burmese with plenty of attitude!

Emma's cat Ollie

Emma's cat Ollie

Ollie is very affectionate and follows Emma around everywhere! He is very much a lap cat and enjoys his cuddles!

Jackie's dog Seth

Jackie's dog Seth

Seth is a very happy chap who has a typical terriers character – if his nose is busy his ears don’t work! Regardless of the copious hours of dog training he just does what he wants!

Jackie's dog Ivy

Jackie's dog Ivy

Ivy has become Seth’s best friend and spends hours annoying him.

She is already showing typical mischievous terrier characteristics which she gets from her mum who is Vet Emma’s dog Rosie!

Jackie's cat Bradley

Jackie's cat Bradley

Bradley was brought in as a stray kitten when she was about 6 weeks old. She was very poorly so Jackie took her home over her weekend on call and she never came back in! She made a full recovery and is known to terrorise the neighbours dogs! She is a very good hunter!

Jackie's tortoises

Jackie's tortoises

These range from 3 years old to 16 years old and will outlive Jackie by years! They get through a lot of salad!

Laura's cat Marmite

Laura's cat Marmite

Marmite is a handsome, slightly overweight Bengal cross. Who is extremely and unnecessarily vocal, especially when food is involved!

Laura's cat Hugo

Laura's cat Hugo

Hugo is a long-haired cat who really, really detests being brushed – collecting leaves and twigs in all of his fur.

Laura's cat Peach

Laura's cat Peach

Little Peach was a very unfortunate looking little stray that came to the practice. Unable to resist, Laura took her home and still very small, she is adorable and very friendly!

Laura's cat Shelby

Laura's cat Shelby

The fourth and final member of Laura’s cat team, Shelby, another stray Laura had to take home! She is an identical version of her other cat Peach, much more naughty though.

Jodie's dog, Archie

Jodie's dog, Archie

No one believes Jodie when she tells them Archie’s 9, as he acts more like a naughty puppy! When he’s not raiding bins and causing mischief he’s trying to find socks or soft toys to eat. He’s caused no end of worry having to have two soft toys surgically removed after eating them whole!

Jodies puppy, Roo

Jodies puppy, Roo

Roo is a 5 and a half old fox red Labrador puppy who is nicknamed “the pig”!

Jodie's cat, Max

Jodie's cat, Max

Max was rescued by Jodie as a feral farm kitten, which is why he’s missing a bit of his ear! He’s sometimes more dog than cat, and enjoys attacking Archie whenever he walks past.

Jodie's cat, Milo

Jodie's cat, Milo

Milo is the most timid of Jodie’s pets. When he’s happy and at home he’s the most cuddly lap cat around, but whenever anyone new comes over he’s usually found hiding under a bed!

Jodies cat, Mouse

Jodies cat, Mouse

Mouse thinks she is a princess. She is lovely until Jodie tries to do anything to her then she turns into a little witch!
