Cat Henstridge MRCVS has the The Pets FactorCBBC is airing The Pets Factor, a new documentary which gives youngsters a look behind the scenes of veterinary practice.

The ten-programme series stars Cat Henstridge MRCVS, a Midlands-based locum, Cheryl Lucas MRCVS, a Vets4Pets JVP from Essex, Bristol-based James Greenwood MRCVS and Rory Cowlam MRCVS from London.

The documentary follows a wide selection of patients and conditions, from routine stuff like lump removal from a dog and dental work on a cat, through to more obscure things like an obstructed python and surgery on a goldfish.

Cat said: "I am hoping the profession will like it. It definitely features the realistic side of the job!"
