I'm Kimberleigh, I am now training to be a Student Veterinary Nurse after being the Veterinary Care Assistant at Vets4Pets Hull Stoneferry. I had been a VCA for 3 years with another Veterinary Practice so I have plenty of hands on experience. In the future I hope to study, train and qualify as an Registered Veterinary Nurse, with a special focus on cats and cat behaviour. 

As you can probably tell I have a real soft spot for felines, particularly Persians. Many times I've been labelled a crazy cat lady, a title I am honestly proud of. 

I have four kitties, Gracie who is actually a boy... it happens. Lady Gertrude who is my rescue, a persian and the sassiest, cheekiest cat I know. My latest addition is Merlin he is now best friends with Macnally who is the youngest and was hand-reared from just hours old. It was extremely tiring but sometimes taking work home with you really does have its perks!
