In an emergency

If your cat needs emergency treatment during our opening hours (8.30am-6pm Monday-Friday), call us on 0161 464 5545.

Outside of our normal opening hours, our patients will be looked after by the highly skilled team at Vets Now. Most clients will use the Vets Now Manchester Hospital in Whitefield, but clients based in Cheshire can use Vets Now Macclesfield if they'd prefer.

Be prepared for emergency situations by ensuring your cat is registered with us in advance and has appropriate pet insurance.

This useful blog post from VetHelpDirect explains why out-of-hours vet fees are higher than in the daytime.
