We are the longest established practice in Wrexham. We are committed to caring for your pets and ensuring that your pets receive the highest standards of veterinary care.
We have been a Silver Cat Friendly practice for 5 years. To find out more about us being a Cat Friendly Clinic, please visit their website.
The premises at Rhyd Broughton have recently been extended and are fully approved by the British Small Animal Veterinary Association.
Our Rhyd Broughton cattery is a spacious establishment which houses 25 individual cat pens. Our pens are dual-levelled with a ramp to the higher tier, allowing your cat to access the sleeping area for peace and solitude. The pens and cattery are supported by mildly textured floor tiles which makes for easy grip for cats with mobility issues.
We have an extra-large pen that would be able to accommodate up to 3 cats comfortably. This may not always be available as it is popular with our multi-cat household clients. Alternatively, our standard cat pens will house 1-2 cats comfortably.
The cattery itself possesses both artificial and natural lighting with central heating and air conditioning to provide a comfortable environment throughout the year. It is protected by a fire alarm, and we have CCTV on the premises.
Rhyd Broughton Vets is a cat friendly practice and has been awarded a silver accreditation by the ISFM in recognition of this. We have pheromone therapy plug-ins throughout the cattery aiding your cats in managing their stress levels while in the cattery environment. We minimise stress naturally by providing hiding places, allowing pets to bring their own bed or bedding and toys or comforts from home.
All our staff are trained in cat handling and recognising cat behaviour to ensure we adapt our handling and interaction techniques to suit your pet.
Our Cattery is based on our veterinary practice grounds which means there are vets and nurses on site should your pet require any additional medical care. If your cat possesses a medical condition that requires medication to be provided, we have trained staff on site to administer the treatment they need.
The cattery has ramp access should that be required when leaving your feline companion in our care. We accept both long and short stay bookings and can take bookings at short notice, depending on cat pen availability.
If you are requiring the use of our cattery, please contact the practice and speak to one of our animal care advisors who will support you through the booking process.
At Rhyd Broughton, we offer the invaluable experience of working in a modern veterinary practice, with insights into the activities that go on ‘behind the scenes’.
Here at Rhyd Broughton we welcome work experience and EMS students. We are a busy large animal practice with a very friendly team. Our staff are committed and motivated to constantly provide the highest standard of care for our patients. We have vets who range from newly graduated to 30 years qualified, as well as many registered veterinary nurses. So, there’s a broad array of experience to learn from.
