Vets
If you are looking for a good local vet then I can recommend Broadway Veterinary Clinic, 1077 Garratt Lane, Tooting Broadway, SW17 0LN, 020 86724710
Lost pets
If you have lost your dog or cat then you can see if they have been found on the following sites. If your pets are microchipped then they are usually returned to you within 24hrs. It is cheap and easy to do via your vet and well worth the peace of mind.
You could also try phoning your local vets, animal charities and borough council to see if they have been taken there.
