David and the team have always been really helpful with our growing puppy, and he was well looked after when he needed some recent surgery. They treated him like one of their own, and he never has a problem visiting the Practice. We would heartily recommend this vetenery practice to anyone.

I have known David for more than 20 years and he has always treated my pets in a caring and professional manner. His wealth of knowledge and expertise is outstanding and the service we have received is second to none. A big thank you to David and the team from myself and Basil.

We bought Ruby for her second injections, her experience and ours were far superior from dealing with previous vets with our previous pets. Ruby looked like she enjoyed her visit tail was wagging as she met the lovely staff. When called in by the vet David (I think it was), he was welcoming. He examined Ruby, and managed to distract her with a treat, she didn’t flinch, but wagged her tail! We are extremely pleased or neighbours recommended us to Stellar Vets, as we had been anxious, but no longer! We came away with great relief that we found a team we will trust.

Dear David, David, Wendy and all the staff at Stellar Vets, we'd like to thank you all for your professionalism and the high level of care that you have shown to us and our cats. You have always very kindly treated them and we have always felt totally confident that your advice has been correct. We appreciate how hard you worked for us at Christmas when Joey sadly passed away. Special thanks to Wendy who looked after her till the end. Just recently, Smooch was in for work on her teeth which she has now recovered from. Poor David was really quite ill that day and looked like he should have been in bed! Even so, Smooch was returned to us with all bad teeth removed and beautifully groomed. Thanks to you all. No doubt we'll be seeing you soon. Yours sincerely with kind regards, Brian and Sally Hartley

Another great visit with my boy, another injection, and some good advice from David. Love the friendly, honest service you get from all the staff here. The only vets my boy loves seeing. Thank you for all you do.

Hamish has allergy problems which can be a nightmare found David most helpful and informative regarding care and treatment.
You are Stellar!
"Tyson had been a problem for some time. To be honest we, as a family, were getting to the end of our tether. It looked like we would have to give up Tyson . David was very open with us and said that Tyson's journey would be long and would require an immense amount of hard work on our part. He stressed that we had to commit and do all the exercises that he set for us. We really did not want to give up Tyson so we agreed to do what ever it took. Well three months later and yes a lot of hard work, Tyson is a new dog. We are all so happy. Thank you Dr. Dave"

Let's find a home for Willow
Willow - We never understand why some people shy away from black cats but this lovely girl has had very little interest and is repeatedly overlooked.
She’s been waiting patiently for too long now and we really want to find her an adult-only, pet-free home where she can settle in time for the Summer.
Aged five, she can be shy at first but once she gets to know you, you’ll be a friend for life!
If you can help, and meet the re-homing criteria, please email adoption@worthingcatwelfaretrust.org

Let's find a home for MISCHA
MISHA - Are you looking for an older cat that is beautiful inside and out?
Aged 11, stunning Misha is a Snow Bengal - a breed that we don't see very often.
A vocal, friendly cat she needs an adult-only household where she can be the only pet. She'd be great company and a lovely addition to a kind home.

Not a green eye alien. A poor little Guinea-Pig with a massive corneal ulcer. We put a dye on to the cornea and then shine a uv lamp on the eye. If there is an ulcer then the dye sticks to the ulcer and it will fluoresce and show up the ulcer. This one is massive!

Buddy and Tipsy - This loveable pair are great friends and would love a new home together, after their previous owners’ circumstances changed.
Buddy is very sociable - a real “Meeter and Greeter” - and Tipsy is also a friendly cat, but needs more time and space to get to know you.
We’ve checked with the previous owner and we think the pair could live with other calm cats, in a quiet home, but not with dogs. They should also be fine with older children, aged 12 plus.
Both cats are four-years-old and would love access to a garden.

Does anyone know this cat? Found in Littlehampton. Microchip but details not kept up to date. We think her name is She-She or possibly Chi-Chi

This poor cat had recently gone off his food. He has been drooling and having trouble eating harder food. The owner had felt a lump under his chin and wondered if he had bad teeth.
Examination of the teeth did not suggest a bad tooth so we took an X-ray of the Skull/Jaw.
Unfortunately the X-ray very clearly showed a bone tumour.
Treatment is only palliative, to make this poor cat as comfortable as possible so he can enjoy the rest of his days pain free.
So sad as such a lovely cat.
