Meet the groomers at Diamond Valley Veterinary Hospitals:

Lyn Hall

Lyn Hall

I have been grooming for about 11 years, at the start of which was when I bought my first Miniature Schnauzer.

I learnt how to groom for showing from top Miniature Schnauzer breeders. I also breed Miniature Schnauzers now.

I have since expanded to other breeds and have been working at Eltham Central Veterinary Hospital since 2007, enjoying every day with the dogs and cats there.

Meet the resident animals of Diamond Valley Veterinary Hospitals:

Hank (Cat)

Hank (Cat)

Hank is the newest of the clinic cats and made himself instantly at home at the beginning of 2009 when he was handed in as a stray with some serious health issues.

Hanks spends most of his time upstairs in the office at Eltham Central Veterinary Hospital sitting on laps or on important paperwork, and is never too busy for a big smooch or for lunchtime leftovers.

He tends to shed a lot of hair over everyone's uniforms and over the office chairs so his human work colleagues are forever chasing him with a brush... much to his disgust!

Lenny (Cat)

Lenny (Cat)

Hi my name is Lenny, I live at the Montmorency Veterinary Hospital.

I love to wander around the clinic, both inside and out and annoy Tiger - my partner in crime and other clinic cat - on a regular basis.

I like rough scratches on the back and scavenging for as much food as I possibly can, whilst my humans are on their lunch breaks.

I originally came to the clinic as a kitten from a pet shop - in for a check up. They found I have a heart murmur, so Joseph and Chris decided to adopt me to become a clinic cat, and let me live the wonderful life I have lead since then!

Sabrina (Cat)

Sabrina (Cat)

Hi my name is Sabrina and I joined Tilly and the rest of the Eltham Central hospital family when I was a kitten, about four years ago, now. I was handed in as a little fluff-ball stray and have lived here ever since.

I love to tease my humans and clients by sitting outside the front door pretending I want to come inside and then running away as soon as they open the door. Because of this, I have a curfew of 4pm.

I enjoy shimmering my tail at you and eating as much food as you can provide.

I do not enjoy being handled, I have legs, so I'll be fine using them thanks.

Tiger (Cat)

Tiger (Cat)

Hi I'm Tiger, I came to the clinic as a surrendered, injured cat. After investigating my injuries, the vets established that I had a broken pelvis and spinal damage, most likely from being hit by a car. The wonderful vets at Montmorency Veterinary Hospital pinned and plated my broken bones and nursed me back to health, and now I share the clinic with Lenny the ginger cat, and my humans.

I like snuggling up in a nice warm mound of leaves, dirt or shrubbery, or - if I can find one - a cozy bed.

Occasionally I will let my people play with my spiky ball, and sometimes I will join in because I find it entertains them when I get involved.

Tilly (Cat)

Tilly (Cat)

Hello, I'm Tilly and I am the oldest and wisest of the clinic cats at Diamond Valley Veterinary Hospitals.

I found my family when someone bought me in as a young cat. I was a stray.

I lost half my tail in a door-closing-too-fast incident a couple of years ago. I really miss the other half of my tail, but I cope just fine without it.

I love to curl up on the reception computer and stay warm, and when I'm not doing that I'm sleeping next to the computer or eating. I rarely venture outside, but when I do, it’s just to check and make sure the sky is still blue, then I'm back on top of my computer defrosting.

I share Eltham Central Veterinary Hospital with Sabrina the fluffy black cat.
