A brand-new veterinary service is set to open inside a popular Stoke-on-Trent pet shop after plans were approved by the city council.
Pets at Home, on Phoenix Retail Park, has been granted permission to build a new mezzanine floor which will be used for pet care, treatment and grooming.
The veterinary service will be open 8.30am-7pm Monday to Friday, 9am-12pm on Saturday and closed on Sundays.
The pet care facility will also be open to walk ins during the week, but other appointments will only be accessible via pre-arranged appointments.
The facility will comprise five consulting rooms where general pet care advice is given and animals receive basic preventative medicine and treatments (such as worming or flea treatments).
There will also be a small operating theatre to undertake small scale procedures such as spaying and X-raying.
As part of the application, Pets at Home will also install 21 air conditioning units, a fire exit door, new staircase and gas bottle storage unit.
No extra staff were proposed as part of the plans.
