There have been some changes recently to the laws surrounding medication for animals.
What this means for the cattery is that we are only allowed to administer medication that has been prescribed by a vet and in the dosage detailed by the vet.
We will therefore require any medication to be provided in it’s original packaging with the vets label on it.
The legislation now also makes it illegal to administer human drugs to animals therefore we will no longer be able to do this.
