Galedin Veterinary is a long-established practice (the website states over 200 years of veterinary care) that treats multiple species, including household pets, horses, and livestock. It’s set up for routine pet healthcare (vaccinations and check-ups are repeatedly mentioned) as well as end-of-life care; one recent review describes a vet explaining sedation and the euthanasia process in detail and discussing options without pressure. Reviews also point to some practical on-site setup (a separate waiting area for cats is mentioned, though one owner said it wasn’t clearly signposted by reception).
