Finding the place
Addresses in Ajman are close to useless and everybody navigates by landmark. So here is the building rather than the postcode.
01The addressAl Khorri Building, Shop No 2, Al Alia, Ajman. We are at street level, not upstairs — you will not need a lift with a carrier in your hand.02What to look for03The signboardGreen and blue, with the falcon and the parrot on it. Visible from the road in both directions.04ParkingDirectly outside the shop. You will not be carrying a crate across a car park.

Straight to the right person
What do you need?
Eight reasons people contact a vet, each with the fastest route and what happens after you use it. Open the row that matches you.
Collapse, breathing trouble, a road accident, suspected poisoning, a cat straining in the litter tray, bloat, a seizure that will not stop.Someone answers at any hour. Tell us what has happened and set off; we will be ready for you.
None of this is required. All of it makes the appointment shorter, calmer and usually cheaper.
Cats in a carrier, not in your armsA car park is the commonest place a cat is lost. If the carrier opens at the top, bring that one — the appointment goes better. Carriers →
Dogs on a short leadNot a retractable one. Waiting rooms hold animals that are frightened, in pain, or both, and sixteen feet of cord is how two of them meet.
The packet, not the nameBring the actual box or bottle of anything your pet is on, food included. Strengths and formulations vary and a photograph of the label settles it in a second.
Any previous recordsVaccination card, results from another clinic, the export paperwork if there is any. Even a photograph on your phone saves repeating a test.
A fresh sample, if we asked for oneUrine or faeces, collected the same morning and kept cool. Older than that and the result is no longer worth having.
Birds in their own cage where possibleTravel in the cage they know, with a cover over it for the journey. A frightened bird in a strange box arrives in worse shape than it left. Bird vet →
