I AM writing in support of the PDSA in Castle Lane, Bournemouth. This vet’s practice has been helping to treat my cat’s illness for the past few months, supplying us with medicines, taking blood tests and past operations.

Although PDSA rely only on donations, there has never been any pressure or ‘guilt trip’ should anyone have no money and they always express thanks for what they receive.

They provide care for those receiving benefits, who are unable to afford otherwise expensive vet bills and make it possible for these families to enjoy animals safely.

I am disgusted at our stingy, uncaring Government, who do not give anything to support this practice... long live the PDSA!
