I have been visiting scampers for over 8 years and the new layout is even better than it has ever…read morebeen , shopping here is really a pleasant experience with quality brands and staff who are so courteous and informative . certainly makes it a destination store . my recent purchase of you streamz has been an excellent buy a product I haven't seen anywhere else and has proved extremely good, thankyou for your guidance and recommendation Scampers .
Everything and more that your pets or you should ever need…read more Some things are a hit pricey so you could shop about, but as with anything pet related, when you need it, you need it now, not in 3-5 days depending on the post....blah blah blah... I feed raw food to the dog and all 5 cats, and they have a great selection here of this. Naturally I did do a bit of a comparison and it turned out to be spot on on price. If you do your homework on bulk and regular items, I think it's about right. Treats and stuff are there or there abouts, but a tad on the high price, mad all the other paraphernalia like cat boxes and toys etc are expensive, so be aware! (Which is why the loss of a star) However, trade all this off against the fantastic choice, and the fact that there is an independent Vetenary practice, and it's a great place. Lastly, the staff are helpful and well informed and always happy to chat with you and give you advice should you need it!

They sell toys and food as well as actual pets like hamsters, guinea pigs, rabbits and fish. The pets look well cared for and the staff are knowledgeable about where they have come from and what life they have had. They also sell suitable carry cases and runs for the animals that you can buy. I am very happy to purchase my pet food from there as I know that it hasn't been in the shop long so is fresh for my animals. Prices are very competitive with the larger pet stores that are on offer. It is on a busy main road with extremely limited parking but it is worth the walk from the local main car park.

And the guinea pigs had no hidies which made us very sad and angry because they MUST have at least 1 they looked frightened due to the noise and surroundings so they really needed somewhere to hide and feel safe.

We have been in here for advice when buying a cockapoo and we spoke to Becky. She was terrific and…read moreso helpful and knowledgeable even though we were not going to buy one at this point. Then last week, we went in to buy a hamster for our granddaughter. Once again we saw Becky and she took us through everything we needed to know, even though she was the only one in the shop and had to keep popping off to serve someone. We agreed to bring our granddaughter in after school to choose a hamster and she set the cage up for us with everything we needed. Nothing was too much trouble! Not only is she knowledgeable, but has many pets herself so speaks from experience as well. Thank you Becky, you are a star!

This is a new (opened Jan 2008) vets which has opened between Needham Market and Stowmarket…read more I spotted the signs for this vet and told a friend about it and she was unfortunate enough to need it when her daughters cat was run over. She told me they were fantastic and didn't charge the earth. A couple of months later my dog was having breathing problems and I thought I would give them a try as I don't much care for the vet I normally use. Cedarwoods vets were fantastic nothing was too much trouble they respected my decision not to have her exrayed with her breathing being so bad (they would have had to put her to sleep to do this). We was going on holiday the following week if the dog was better and they managed to fit me in on the Monday morning to check her over before we went. I can't praise this Vets practice enough. Overall I had 8 visits with treatment on all but one visit and blood tests this was just short of £250-00 which I thought was excellent value. Well worth a visit if you need a friendly vet who doesn't charge the earth and is willing to spend time explaining things to you.

After waiting a whole month, contacted them, to be told they had left me a voicemail (they didnt) waiting on a decision. I informed them I had made the decisions on the day & paid for a individual cremation & paw print. When they checked my details, they confirmed I had. So, another 2 week wait as they had not done anything with my beloved pet, so 2 weeks later I called again - again, claimed to have left voicemail (they didnt) & said ashes & paw print had been ready for over a week to collect?? Upon collection, ashes had been placed in a sealed plastic bag, in a box, not in a scatter tube, which is what I asked for & paid for. They really do not seem to know what they are doing, no communication obviously between the staff team & do not appreciate being 'fobbed off' with claims of phone calls/voicemails that never happened. Made a very upsetting time even worse. Would never recommend them & would never use them again.

An incredibly useful little pet shop is Baldwins as it sells pretty much anything you could want for the usual domestic pet and it is nice to be able to get these goods without the usual trip to a big pet department on an industrial estate. The shop holds an amazing array of goods and is quite deceptive in size as there is a second section to go into that is not immediately obvious on first entering.
