The International Society of Feline Medicine (the veterinary division of International Cat Care Organsiaton) run an accreditation scheme for veterinary clinics in which they assess how 'cat-friendly' the clinic is.

Clinics are assessed on a number of different areas:

• Staff training, continued development and clinical governance
• Handling cats in the clinic
• Owner communications
• Vet Clinic Premises
• Waiting Rooms
• Consult Rooms
• Clinical Records
• Hospitalisation of Cats
• Additional Hospital Facilities
• Operating Theatres and Anesthesia
• Surgical Equipment
• Dental Equipment
• Diagnostic Imaging
• Lab Facilities
• Medicinal Products
• Health and Safety and Legal Requirments

At Maven Vets we are delighted to announce we have been awarded the GOLD standard award, the highest award! We are delighted to have recognition for the care and planning we have taken to ensure our clinic is as feline friendly as possible.

We look forward to welcoming our feline friends old and new to the new clinic in the years to come.
