Our Clinic Critters
Meet cheddar
Cheddar was found near Cawthorpe Veterinary abandoned as a couple weeks old kitten. He has since been happily patrolling the walls at Cawthopre keeping an eye on everything. Cheddar fancies sleeping on top of the server box behind reception and loves chasing flies. He also enjoys drinking water directly from the tap rather than his water bowls. Petting him can be a luxury as it really depends on his mood, so if he lets you pet him consider yourself lucky.
Meet Miss Molly
Miss Molly was brought into our Cawthorpe location in 2005 as a stray mom with her kittens. She is quiet shy and you can most likely find her in her favourite cozy spot behind the front desk napping. If you visit us in the early morning, you can find her at the front door watching birds on the sidewalk. Molly also provides blood for cats with severe illness that may need a blood transfusion.
Meet "Mr. Tiddleywinkle" aka "Tidley"
Tidley is our recent addition. He was brought in the summer of 2011 as a stray to be neutered and later released back outdoors. He captured our hearts in such a short visit. Tidley is everyone’s best friend and he loves all- cat, dog, human! You can often see him assisting the staff and welcoming patients at the front desk.
