    Do you have people you can talk to about their experiences of different vets? A friend told me about the one I now go to.

    We originally used V3t$ 4 P3t$ but everytime we went we saw a different vet and had to explain the whole thing every time, it just felt so impersonal. We use just an individual surgery now rather than a chain, although we paid for his vaccination for life at the chain branch so have to go back there once a year for his booster xx

    We have one in mind which is supposed to be really good. MIL and my mum go there now and both recommend it.

    The only downside is they don't deal directly with insurers but it's not the end of the world I suppose - that's what credit cards are for!

    You can access appointment booking online and if you opt for quieter periods you get up to a 50% discount on standard routine appointments which is good, and you can view the medical records online too. They also have a service where you can log on and watch live streaming of your pets if they ever need to stay in which is pretty cool.

    Yep ours doesn't either, we had to pay the amount and then claim it back.

    Just checked my ba, good job I have all that money coming in and it's pay day on Friday. It's looking a tad poor. Have to pop out to town later to pick up my daughter's school shoes, hoping to have the cheque from the gas then as well, have one but not the other. Then I can put them both in together.

    We use V3ts 4 p3ts too but we are thinking of changing as there prices are so much more expensive than the one a little further down the road. Think we will change before we need to go for anything (fingers crossed we don't)!

    It might be worth getting some hibi scrub for cleaning oscars poorly paw Flossie you can use it on anything and anyone it's what hospitals clean you with before surgery n stuff I use it to clean kids knees it there's grit in there or if they've gotten splinters, I also use on horse and have done on my mums dog when he was bitten by another,it kills bacteria. Worth having if you ask me, it's about £6 a bottle but u don't need much. I'd send you some of mine if u wanted to try it. Vets are hit and miss really u get those who only work there for the money and it shows,then those like mine who care what happens to the animals,my old dog dislocated her hip (due to bad breeding) and couldn't walk properly I took her in he popped it be in gave her a painkiller inj - no charge. Same with my horse who was coughing a lot I thought he had strangles he came to see him told me to soak hay and give piriton - no charge
    Yet my mums dog got taken to vets as he couldn't poop same practice but diff vet n he charged her £85 just for call out when he was already there....

    I'd say rice, it's a good alternative to spuds and you can get some lovely flavoured ones.

    I've got some whole grain rice. The microwaveable pouches. It's 3.5 syns so may have that with it or I've got normal white frozen rice which is free. Done the cola chicken and put it all in the slow cooker so it's a quick tea later :) x
