Unfortunately we have just had a deceased cat handed into us. She was a young female tabby cat found in the Southmead area. We are unsure of her neuter status but she had no microchip. If you have any information about this cat please call us on 0117 950 5888.

Viking Vets is proud to stock this wonderful book called Buddy & Tilda by local author, Catherine Clawson. It has been written with the intention of promoting positive child and dog interactions, in a beautifully illustrated and child-friendly way. It costs £6 and is available from our reception. All profits go to Bristol Children's Hospital and Hope Rescue.

Viking Vets 25 years!

Time is a strange thing, in many ways it feels like an eternity since we first opened our doors, but at the same time the memories of the fear and panic hoping someone would turn up is very vivid and feels like yesterday!

Thankfully pets with people turned up, and have kept turning up in droves. Not a day goes by without me feeling grateful for having a job I love, working with a team of people who goes over and above to make Viking Vets a place where both people and pets are cared for.

One of the joys of being a vet is to follow pets from puppies/kittens through life into senior years. Now we also see new pet owners who used to come in with their parents as children. This really makes me realise how much time has gone by!

Thank you all our lovely clients, pets, team members, past and present for supporting Viking Vets over a quarter of a century!

Love from
Maria

25 year working at Viking Vets!

Huge congratulations and thank you to our lovely Lisa who has now been working here for 25 years!
Lisa started a week before we opened in 2000 and was put to work painting and cleaning ( her lovely parents also came in to help out).

Lisa is the fount of all knowledge for us all. She keeps us on our toes to give our patients the best and maintain excellent client service. Her commitment to always doing her best is astonishing. Lisa has been instrumental in training a new generation of nurses to strive for the same high standards she sets herself.

Lisa has a sixth sense of what people and pets need, even before they know it themselves. She cares so deeply about all creatures great and small, as well as our lovely clients and for all her colleagues.

Lisa has been an enormous support for me over the last 25 years, the mere fact she has coped with me tells you all you need to know about the level of grit Lisa possess.

Love from Maria

Relaxed Cats 😺 Alfie and Monty

Meet Alfie the Bengal and Monty the Russian Blue. These two beautiful boys have both visited us in the last week for their monthly kitten health checks with our nursing team. They were both good as gold for their examinations and it is always brilliant to see our feline patients making themselves comfortable and at home in our cat consultation room.

THEY DID IT!!! We would like to say a huge CONGRATULATIONS to Anna, Federica, Jess, Georgia and Sophia. They all braved the Sunday heat and completed the Bristol 10K run. We could not be more proud of our Viking Runners. Not only did they complete the 10K but they have also managed to reach and beat their fundraising target goal. Thank you to each and every one of you that has donated so far! The fundraising page is still open for anyone who still wants to donate, and we shall try and gather some more photos of our runners in action for a later date.

Here is the link if you would like to donate to Cancer Research.

Stray Cat

We have just had a stray cat handed into us. He was found near Southmead and has been seen in this area for roughly one week. He appears to be a young adult, and is an unneutered male. He is ginger and white, and does not have a microchip. If you have any information on this cat please contact us on 0117 950 5888.

Bristol 10K Update 🏃‍♀️

Not only have our Viking Runners braved running through the cold and damp winter months, but they have now proven themselves in the rising temperatures over the last few days. Although not all of them were able to make this practice run, Federica, Anna and Sophia all powered through the 28 degree heat to get some extra practice in before the Bristol 10K next weekend.

They have already done brilliantly with their fundraising and thank you so much to everyone who has donated so far. The link for donating can still be found below.
