End of Life Care
Our pets are considered much-loved family members, and we feel the same! Losing a family member is an upsetting and challenging period of our lives.
Compassionate End of Life Care (Euthanasia)
Rest assured, when your pet's quality of life is suffering due to age or illness, we are here to support and guide you every step of the way.
You and your pet will be treated with the utmost respect
and dignity at all times.
End of Life suite
Here at Goostrey Lane vets, we have a private end of life suite, where you can take as long as you need to say goodbye to your beloved family member in the privacy of a separate and quiet space especially furnished to make those last moments as comfortable as possible for you and your pet.
Before euthanasia, our vet will talk you through what is going to happen and what to expect. A sedative may be given for any distressed or anxious pets. These are their last moments, and we want them to be as calm and peaceful as possible.
Home Visits
We can also offer home euthanasia visits; these are pre-arranged with the practice and are carried out usually in the middle of the day or after hours. For sudden, unexpected, emergency euthanasia home visits, we will try our very best to accommodate you and your pet on the day.
After your pet has passed away, you will be given additional private time to say goodbye if you require it.
Our vets and nurses can discuss what you would like to do with your pet's remains and the options available. This can be done either on the day or pre-agreed before your visit.
We are here to provide you with support and information to guide you through this difficult decision.
Help is on hand!
