Our vaccination programme protects pets against preventable diseases through tailored immunisation schedules. We administer core vaccines for dogs, cats, and rabbits while considering individual lifestyle factors. The service includes comprehensive health checks and booster reminders to maintain immunity.
Cattery services
Our purpose-built cattery provides secure, hygienic accommodation for cats with daily monitoring by veterinary professionals. Facilities include spacious pens and 24/7 healthcare access, requiring up-to-date vaccinations and parasite control for resident cats.
Nutrition advice
We offer evidence-based nutritional guidance for pets with specific dietary needs or health conditions. Services include tailored diet plans, weight management programmes, and access to premium veterinary diets with expert support from registered veterinary nurses.
Wellness screening
Comprehensive health assessments for mature pets detect early signs of disease through blood tests, physical examinations, and lifestyle evaluations. Annual screenings help identify kidney disease, arthritis, and other age-related conditions in cats and dogs.

Our dental services include routine cleanings, extractions, and oral disease management. We provide preventative care advice and use modern equipment to maintain optimal dental health for companion animals.

Report
Was estimated around 1,104 for a removal of a lump on my dogs back end, the size of the lump reduced tremendously and is much smaller than 7cm, i just got of the phone to thanet vets and they have advised me that they under charged me, and that the price for the surgery wont reduce even though the Mass has gotten so small now, because it was infected all this time! the lump eventually burst and was filled with pus, none of the nurses at thanet vets informed me about this, i think being a vet for over 30 years you would be able to tell the difference between non infected and infected.

Had to take my pup while on holiday and the staff were able to find time to see us at a very short notice. Jill, the vet we saw, was great - very professional, knowledgeable and kind. Highly recommended!

I can't recommend Thanet Vets enough. The whole team is wonderful and have been so supportive while my cat was very sick and then passed on. Anita the vet was incredible, caring, understanding and very professional. All the vets, nurses, admin and reception staff are just brilliant.

I've been with a few vets in thanet, but I can't fault the team on reception or the vets and nurses, they are second to none. I want to thank them all for the love and support and dignity they gave me and my 18 year old bengal. Thank you so much to all of you.
