A Note from Becca, Founder at Friends for Pets

Hi everyone,

I hope you and your lovely pets are enjoying the crisp autumn days! October has been a busy month for us. I even had the chance to go on BBC Radio 2 this morning to talk about veterinary costs and how they’re impacting pet owners. It’s an important conversation, and one I hope continues to gather momentum. You can listen to the segment here: https://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m002kh97 at 16 mins ish.

If, like us, you care deeply about transparency and affordability in pet healthcare, we’d really encourage you to check out and fill in the survey on vets fees for the CMA, then please look here https://connect.cma.gov.uk/vets-provisional-decision
