CASVet
Welcome to your local, affordable vet based at Cheltenham Animal Shelter.
Welcome to CASVet. We are based on a social enterprise, located at Cheltenham Animal Shelter.
We exist to provide great vet care for all pets and look after all the animals at Cheltenham Animal Shelter. We do this at an affordable price with a share of our profits going to the Shelter.
Our team is made up of friendly, skilled and experienced vets and nurses, dedicated to helping your pet.
Our excellent on-site equipment includes state-of-the-art anaesthetic monitoring, digital x-rays, digital dental x-rays, ultrasound, electrocautery, dental machines and an in-house laboratory. Our skilled team is able to perform a wide range of routine surgery in our clinic.
We have a close working relationship with Dragon Vet Centre who have a CT scanner and 24-hour on-site vet care. This enables us to refer complex cases when needed.
We try to keep all charges low for everyone. We offer a further discount* on initial consultations for those in receipt of benefits (*10% off, proof of benefits required), and CASVet have a fantastic nursing team offering free or low cost nurse appointments.
By visiting CASVet, you help us treat hundreds of animals who come to the Shelter every year.

More reasons to choose CASVet
Supporting Cheltenham Animal Shelter
Every working day our vets and nurses provide free appointments for the pets staying in the Shelter so every year we provide thousands of free appointments for these pets. In addition, a share of our profits goes to the Shelter to help them care for hundreds of stray, abandoned and unwanted cats, dogs and small animals every year.
We are local and independent
More and more vet practices keep their names yet are part-owned by big national companies backed by shareholders and private equity, investing for profit.
Our prices are almost always the lowest in town
We exist to support the Animal Shelter and provide affordable veterinary services to the public.
Helping other animal charities
CASVet not only funds Cheltenham Animal Shelter but also helps breed rescue associations by providing discounted vet treatment and we have joined forces with the UK’s biggest vet charity – PDSA – to offer their new PetCare service to pet owners in need.
