  Very good service. Quickly seen to. Very friendly staff and doctors. Doctor spent time showing me the X-ray of my cat and explaining the problem to me. She was very gentle with the cat and was professional and knowledgeable. Prices are very reasonable. I really hope the Blue Cross stays. Great Service.

  For the most part I have good experiences at blue cross. But sadly my cat died on Christmas Day, I was completely heartbroken. I knew this day was coming soon as she died at 16 but it was still hard. One thing I really didn’t appreciate, and I can understand it’s Christmas Day so potentially they’re trying to keep their spirits up, but whilst I’m explicitly crying and devastated, kissing my cat goodbye, right beside me in the same room, the nurses/doctors were giggling, laughing about their own jokes, and I didn’t say anything as I’m too distraught and also didn’t want to make a scene but I did keep thinking like can’t you do that outside of the room? Like why beside me whilst I’m crying? I felt it was unprofessional and lacked a little care and sympathy. It’s one of the reasons why I went with a different cremation company that was 24/7 and picked her up the very next day instead of the recommended company that would have picked her up a week later. I didn’t want my dear cat to be staying there for too long. I will say when they spoke to me directly, they were respectful and showed care but the moment I began to give my attention to my cat, kissing and crying, they would begin their side jokes again right beside me. The receptionist remained professional, attentive and sympathetic throughout and I really appreciate her. This was my first pet ever, and she died, and I’ve never had to experience this at a vet before, I hope they read this and have more care in the future. I’m not saying you can’t keep your spirits up and make jokes, but make them in private (time and place is key) not beside someone when they’re saying goodbye to their cat and clearly in distress.

  I recently came across a stray dog in Central London. The dog appeared to be a large breed, weighing approximately 25 kg and aged around 6 to 8 months. He was black and brown and temperament very boisterous. My first response was to call 101 for support. They referred me to the dog warden service. The dog warden advised me to secure the dog in a safe, enclosed area if I could do so without putting myself at risk, and informed me that only then could they collect the dog. I asked the call handler whether taking the dog to the Blue Cross was an option, as I was just around the corner, and they confirmed that it was. Had I believed the dog to be dangerous, I would have called 999. We arrived outside the Blue Cross, where staff scanned the dog for a microchip in order to make contact with the owner. The professionalism and strong work ethic of the staff member were outstanding. I believe it would have been overwhelming for the dog to go inside the vets due to the presence of other cats, dogs, and strong smells. The vet waited outdoors patiently, with a smile on their face, despite the rain, while waiting for the owner to arrive and collect the dog. Chillandchi

  Sadly an awful experience. I took my old cat to revision because I noticed he was acting weird. After being seen and taken a blood and urine samples on Monday, the laboratory called me on Wednesday to communicate the cat has thyroid and I had to collect medication for him. I went same day and I gave the cat his medication. However he didn't improve not even a little, so I called to the emergency number, on Thursday morning, explained the situation, and I asked for an appointment for a same day as matter of urgency. The kid that was at the phone said that wasn't possible, and he only offered me a vet call next day evening, also I had to paid for the consultation. Sadly during the night I had to see how the cat suffer, and I see him exhale Friday morning. He suffered, he couldn't find peace that night. I feel responsible but I really would have appreciate if someone have heard that was an emergency. I explained the cat wasn't look good at all, and I was worried, and I need it a vet appointment. Also I believe the cat didn't get the right diagnosis from first day and then their "emergency number "clearly doesn't know what's an emergency. I just wanted to prevent people and get a second vet opinion if you belive your pet is sick and don't trust completely their first diagnosis. I truly thought they knew, and i trusted but I am sure the cat has more conditions, not only the thiroid. ( the cat it was a stray cat that I took in home) I know this is a charity, but I think they should care a bit more a the patients, the pets. I would have preferred to put down my cat instead of seeing him suffer as he did. That will break my heart forever.
