Pet care

If you go into hospital you will need someone to look after your pet.

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 should be able to find details of these in your local telephone directory.

You could ask your local veterinary surgeon or Animal Welfare Officer to suggest some options.

If you are worried about the cost of boarding your pet, please contact us.

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

The Cinnamon Trust

The Cinnamon Trust  is also a charitable organisation (based in Cornwall) with 4,500 registered volunteers across the UK. They may be able to help you find pet care if you have to go into hospital.
