Emergencies

What to do in the event a pet emergency

If you have a pet emergency during our opening hours, please contact us on 01295 259446 to let us know that you are on your way. 

When we are closed, our on-call service provider is Hart Veterinary Centre in Bicester.

Hart Vets has a dedicated team of night vets and nurses meaning cases admitted out of hours benefit from the same continuous high standard of care as they would during the day.

Hart Veterinary Centre will look after our out-of-hours service between:

Monday to Thursday - 6:30pm to 8:00am

Friday - 6:30pm to 9:00am on Saturday morning

Saturday - 1:30pm to 8:00am on Monday morning

Out of hours fees:

8AM-10PM: £195

10PM-8AM: £295

We continue to provide overnight care for any inpatients that are already with us where it is deemed appropriate so that they do not have to be moved between practices. If our vets feel that it is in the pet’s best interests to be transferred overnight to Hart Vets for the purpose of intensive monitoring, the vet will discuss this with you in person and go through their recommendation. We do not have vets or nurses on site overnight however, we do have a system in place whereby late night checks are carried out for any inpatients and our clinical team are back on site early the next morning. If your pet is transferred to Hart Vets overnight for intensive monitoring, they will typically be transferred back to us the following morning. Transfers are usually carried out between the practices by you as the owner as long as your pet is stable enough.
