Pet Care

If you go into hospital, you will need someone to look after your pet. We provide advice on arranging pet care.

The most common option is to ask a family member, good neighbour or friend to help.

If not, for cats and dogs, you may need to contact a local kennel or cattery.

You could ask your local veterinary surgeon to suggest some options.

You can find details of local kennels, catteries and veterinary surgeons at www.yell.com.

You could also contact the following organisations who may be able to assist.
