Local vet Montmorillon

[Fred]

A story with a happy ending. One of our cats developed a problem with his back leg during Saturday.
Conquering my fear of making phone calls in French, I rang three local practices and received a "we're closed" answerphone message. Two if them did go on to give an emergency number but when I called those they weren't answered.
However, within 5 minutes I received a call back from the vet in Montmorillon (the one in Rue Terrier Blanc, which I always think is a great address for a vet!)

He went to his surgery and we met him there about 20 minutes. A quick examination later the cat was diagnosed with a pulled muscle: "he jumped and landed badly" according to the vet!
An anti-inflammatory injection and pain killer plus  a week's worth of medicine were dispensed and we left the surgery with a happier cat  

So if any of you have pet problems out of office hours, give the Montmorillon surgery a call. I know we're not allowed to recommend vets on a public forum but if any of you would like clearer contact details please drop me a pm.

Good news Brian, glad your Cat is OK.  

Regarding not being allowed to recommend vets on a public forum, another member mentioned this once to me once but when I asked for more information none was forthcoming.

So as far as I'm concerned I see no problem with it, obviously I wouldn't let defamatory remarks about a vet on here but I see no reason not to mention the contact information. Besides Yell have no problem listing their details: https://www.yelp.com/writeareview/search...%2C+Vienne

*Should anyone have more proof about not being able to mention a vet/doctor/etc on this forum please let me know.

Fred.
