jordanjlb Posted February 12, 2012 Share Posted February 12, 2012 Anyone know how the PDSA hospital work, Im currently receiving council tax benefit and have a letter to this effect but it is dated March 2011. My cat has developed a sore eye today and I was wondering if I took him to the PDSA would my entitlement letter be still valid or does it need to be say no more than 6 months old. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stranza Posted February 12, 2012 Share Posted February 12, 2012 I took my Mum (and her cat) there two weeks ago. Her letter had to be dated within 12 months (six months for people under 65 if I remember right) we had the wrong letter so they called up Howden House while we waited and had them confirm her entitlement. They were very helpful with Mum and Buster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jordanjlb Posted February 12, 2012 Author Share Posted February 12, 2012 Thanks for your replies I will ring before I go just didnt want to get there and them not treat him, but if they need to check with Howden House that will be ok. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

terminator Posted February 12, 2012 Share Posted February 12, 2012 Best contacting council first To arrange Benefit proof to be faxed through to PDSA 0114 2736777 select option 3 then 5 Then contact RSPCA 10 mins after for apointment. Letter you have is no good to them in theory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jordanjlb Posted February 13, 2012 Author Share Posted February 13, 2012 Just to let others know you do need an entitlement letter less than 6 months old, I rang Howden House and they emailed the info to PDSA no problem. I took Jink today and he has an ulcer on his eye and weve got to put ointment in, it took three of us to do this one holding his body and legs, one his head and the other to put a blob of ointment in . Thanks to everyone who replied to my post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
