Cat Henstridge BVSc MRCVS
Cat, also known as ‘Cat The Vet’, graduated from Bristol Vet School in 2003 and has worked with pet animals ever since. She started practicing in the West Midlands but more recently moved back to her home town of Sheffield, where she plays to stay.
Cat is a passionate animal advocate and believes all pets are deserving of good quality veterinary care. She knows the companionship and comfort animals give is second to none and just how important they are in their owner’s lives. She is dedicated to helping pet owners understand their best friends and any conditions they may have, which is why she started her popular blog and social media pages - to bridge the gap between veterinary professionals and pet parents!
In addition to writing for her own website, she also writes for several magazines and online outlets and has appeared on TV, most recently on CBBC’s ‘The Pets Factor’.
Cat is delighted to be a patron of Street Paws and she is looking forward to promoting “this amazing charity and the incredibly valuable work they do in any way I can.”
Peter Wright BVSc MRCVS
Peter is a vet and star of Channel 5's The Yorkshire Vet
He worked with Alf White and Donald Sinclair, the original James Herriot and Siegfried Farnon, and enjoys telling the younger vets tales from his time with them which leaves them wondering if he ever made an appearance in the James Herriot books! Peter enjoys small animal internal medicine as well as equine work, but is also regularly seen out on farm visits.
“As a vet I have closely observed people who live on the streets with their pets. It is very apparent to me the strong bond that exists between these people, who have fallen on hard times and their animals. I am also aware that without the support of organisations such as Street Paws that when their beloved companion becomes ill or needs help there are very few options open. Street Paws are here for them and I am very happy to support them.”
