Holly House vets in Moortown, Leeds; I've seen three different vets, and they all did research before I saw them and were also great at listening to me and not being patronising when they explained things. Sarah Brown is particularly good for ratties.

hi a new vet has opened in bamber bridge inbetween chorley and preston ive been to him a couple of times and was very good with the rats

Chris Mason
south preston office village
crerden way
Bamber Bridge
Preston
PR5 6BL
01772 335799

after enquireing about the worse happing and i have to have a rat put to sleep he said their put in a chamber to gas first then inject so that was a weight off my mind as if the time comes your upset enough without the added pressure of the vet telling you they just inject and they don't feel it he listened too and explained things to me which i found very helpful ska girlxx

I would also like to recommend Chris Mason. He was my vet when he worked at the Vets4Pets in Preston. Having been to him with a number of different problems i can say that i was never disappointed in the treatment that my rats received while in his care. I registered with another vet when he left Vets4Pets but have now registered with Chris again, as he is definately worth me travelling a bit extra for! A vet who truely cares about animals, not about making money.

Ok, technically they are in Cheshire/Greater Manchester but wanted to recommend Companion Care in Stockport, P@H. They have been really great, especially Korbus and Irene. Me and my ratties say thank you

Alan is an exotics specialist. He has many rats on his book, and is always open to owner oppinions (he really appreciates an owner who does their research, as opposed to some vets, who take it as a personal challenge!). On rare occasions that he doesn't know what something is, he will take all the info he can (inc. pics) and consult other vets online and get back to you.
If you're in Liverpool, I wouldn't see anyone else worth his weight in gold!

make sure to get Dan (or 'dan the man' to his legion of female admireers ), he is quite possibly the kindest human being on the planet but will give it to you steight if he thinks your pets in a bad way. would reccomened him any day of the week.

It's within the boundaries on the map so it counts I second this as well, I went for the first time today and they were brilliant. Ashleigh Veterinary Surgery in Chorlton was my usual vets as it's pretty close to me, but I don't feel that the vet that they put me with is particularly interested in the rats (don't know his name but he is their resident "exotic" vet. I think his expertise is with reptiles and not rats!). Where I can, next time I might go the extra distance where possible to Companion Care in P@H Stockport because of the good experience I had

I am sadly a regular at Companion Care Stockport and they are fantastic!!
