Morten was a young cat so finding out he had a terminal illness was devastating.Oli was was compassionate, kind and very good with our three young children- who were still in denial that their Morten was so poorly.It was reassuring that our much loved Morten’s last breath was wrapped in his blanket in familiar surroundings.
Oli was so kind during the process of putting Isla to sleep. She was a beloved family pet, and it made all the difference being able to have her at home when the time came. I am truly thankful and would highly recommend the service to any of my friends.
