Title: Registered with 2 vets
Post by: catalyst on April 27, 2009, 22:48:05 PM

Is anyone here registered with more than one vet and take their cat to the other vet if not happy with the other one?

My daughter is registered with two vets and uses whichever one she thinks is best for the issue

I'm registered with a few - one locally to us does microchipping reasonably but it's not the one I use mainly.

yes I have all four cats registered with two vets and all was fine till I tried to use the second one when Franta became an emergency. He had to be transferred permantently to the second one but if I dont like how they treay him , I will take him back to the first for a second opinion and know they still have his records.

Sasa has been seen by both but the other two only by one ......very bloomin complicated!

I'm registered with loads :shy: a few have been one visit and never gone again 'cos i was so shocked by their "care" >:( one locally is used for the cats, and emergency care for the dogs, they are very good, but also very expensive (cost me over £200 for Jarvis to be sedated and have his injured paw stitched last summer :shocked:) and then i have the PDSA which the dogs are registered that i use for their routine/non-emergency stuff. (and always leave a generous donation too :))

I am registered with 2

But i only use one of them now.....the other one is nearer though so if there was a life or death accident i would go there for quickness

Me too. I have my 3 boys registered with a vet but because I'm not so pleased with the vets there, I have recently registered Ollie elsewhere and will take the other 2 there as the need arises. However, I do intend to remain registered with the other vet as a back-up.

Nope just the one. I love my vets  ;D

I have used other vets for others cats tho, so I know they would be ok. My vets is about 10 miles away but they are worth it.  :)
