We have a long and close association with the local (Wrexham) branch of the Cats Protection League. We attend the charity twice a week when we give any new admissions a thorough clinical examination, attend to any cats which are ill and perform routine surgery. Being a charity we perform our work there at a much reduced rate and make monthly donations to the charity, but even so, the charity has other expenses to meet and is wholly reliant on donations from the public. One of the primary aims of the charity is to reduce the stray population and in an effort to do so will issue vouchers to cover a large part of the neutering costs of some privately cared for cats. For further details on the charity and their neutering scheme click here >>

As a member of the Veterinary Poisons Information Service (VPIS) we have access to the most up to date information on all substances which might pose a risk to your pet. Some objects which pose a danger to your pet may surprise you. For further details please visit the VPIS website by clicking here>>. BUT IF YOU SUSPECT YOUR PET HAS BEEN POISONED THEN PLEASE CONTACT THE SURGERY IMMEDIATELY THE VPIS WEBSITE WILL ONLY GIVE YOU GENERAL INFORMATION ON COMMON HOUSEHOLD DANGERS.

We have had a long and friendly working relationship with The Dogs Trust. One of the trusts main aims is to help people get their dogs neutered. The Trust can through vouchers enable you to have your pet (male or female)neutered for £30. In addition the Trust occasionally runs local schemes which provide free neutering or free health checks (including vaccinations). For more information on this and The Dogs Trust in general please click here>>.

At Gatehouse we consider you to be our employers and the care of your pets our primary responsibility. We are constantly striving to improve our service to you.

Established in 1952, we are a friendly, professional and modern practice based in North Wales specialising in the care of small animals including the more exotic species. We hope this website will become your first port of call for information on our practice, and the services it provides.

On the right hand side you will find links to a whole range of local services such as dog groomers and kennels - please see section headed as OTHER SERVICES.

We hope you find this web site useful and look forward to welcoming you to one of our premises.

Wrexham police took on a new dog (Molly) in January 2007. Molly is a highly trained, and amongst other things can detect drugs. The dog concerned has been remarkably successful so far. Gatehouse vets were proud and happy to support the police with their efforts. Indeed we have committed ourselves to provide annual vaccinations, worming and routine treatment for this dog FREE OF CHARGE. Despite that however it seems, because of cuts in the current economic crisis, that the police may have to retire Molly from service.

As a practice registered with the International Society of Feline Medicine (ISFM) and the Feline Advisory Bureau (FAB) you can rest assured we remain right up to date on all aspects of Feline medicine and Surgery. These websites also have a large amount of information leaflets for pet cat owners which we would encourage you to review.
