Elizabeth Street Veterinary Clinic & Emergency Service

The vets here are brilliant! As are its nursing staff! When we returned home late on Saturday night, our normally healthy cat had thrown up and continued to throw up at 3 hour intervals.
Our regular vets are shut on Sunday, but have a tie-up with this clinic for emergencies. The nurse on the phone was very helpful and helped calm us down. She gave us some recommendations, and told us to call again in the evening if the symptoms didn't abate.
We had to call them again and were given an appointment quickly. The nurse in the waiting room was efficient and calmed us down as well as all the other people who came in with their pets in emergencies.
The doctor when we saw her was brilliant. Attentive to all our input and handled our temperamental + sick cat beautifully. Given the problem we have getting a tablet down her throat, she gave us a paste to feed her in 2 hours and she has promised us that cats LOVE the taste. She also gave her an injection for the nausea and discomfort and put in a bit of a pain killer too to ease the cat.
As soon as we got home, our cat who was on 15-20% energy levels and 60% stubbornness for the past 24 hours, is now at 60% energy and 90% stubbornness ( in 30 minutes)
Very very impressed and happy with every interaction that we had with this clinic today.

Notting Hill Cat Boarding
Notting Hill Cat Boarding
21 Blenheim Crescent
London W11 2EF
Notting Hill
07813 547461
We requested Dominique's assistance when we had to leave for 3 weeks and I'm so glad that we chose her.
We chose the cat sitting option where she visited our home daily to check on Cookie, feed her and spend some time with her. Dominique sent us daily updates with photos on whatsapp which helped alleviate our separation anxiety greatly.
When our mischievous brat managed to open a shut door and lock herself in a room one night, she made 2 visits the next day to check in on her.
She really cares for cats and our cat loved her. We will definitely request her help again, the next time we travel.

Purplebone - A Pet Shop
Purplebone
Southern Terrace Ariel Way (Westfield- Shepherds Bush)
London W12 7GA
Founded by people who bought accessories for their own dogs that were admired and inquired about. They set up this shop to help people find accessories for their own pets.
95% of the shop is dedicated to dogs and there is a huge range of toys, food, beds, collars etc. You can expect beautiful colours, well thought of choices etc.
The cat section is miniscule in comparison. A few organic style food items (wet & dry) and a few toys is what you can expect. The only scratching post they had, was made from recycled cardboard. While it may be great for the planet, my kitty will decimate it in under a week.
So yes, if you have a dog - this place is a must visit. For cats - find another place unless you have a food emergency (I don't even recall seeing litter)

Verve Pet Boutique & Cafe
Verve Pet Boutique & Cafe
179 Westbourne Grove
Notting Hill
London W11 2SB
020 7229 1348
An unusual pet shop run by interesting people. There's even a cafe to sip on coffee and enjoy a light snack while you shop.
Verve was a Godsend for us as the only pet shop in the area, open at 7pm, when we arrived after an international flight with our cat and needed to buy her a litter box before she was released and brought home by JCS.
They carry a huge range of products for both dogs and cats and you will often find miniature dogs of the owner and his friends, at the store.
They have a dog sitting facility on the premises and If I'm not mistaken, they offer shampooing services too.
They are slightly on the more expensive side, but they make up for it with the service levels and extended hours etc.
