Pet passport
in Pets
Our vet in Carcassonne asked to see a copy of the blood test (the one that proves the dog has rabies antibodies) - we didn't have it with us as our vet in England had kept it. The vet suggested we bring it with us next time we visit France, so I obtained a photo copy and now keep it with the Pet Passport. The vet used our own Advantix which we had brought with us and so we had only to pay for the worming and the consultation.
I agree with the other posters about visiting your local vet and establishing a relationship with them.

Hello Polly - I don't mind that there are two of us! - I don't post much anyway, unless I am searching for info - I leave it to others to chit-chat. I'm sure we won't be mistaken for each other.
It could prove interesting tho' ....................

Hi Guys, Been this week to collect the flea treatment and scalibor collar and asked the vet for Advantix as we are right on the edge of Aude/Tarn - Our vet is now confused as the Advantix (which they do not generally prescribe - they use Frontline as a general rule) gives protection against sandfly and thinks the collar is not required as it may o.d. on the sandfly protection - she has asked me to investigate. On reading the packaging I think she may be right and that the Advantix alone will be alright - any comments please?
Your help is greatly appreciated - thanks!

We live in the Montagne Noire, South of Mazamet, at Miraval Cabardes in Aude .400 meteres altitude. I think the weather varies which side of the Mountain you are. Here we get approx one week of snow, and some rain. It is cold and sometimes misty. However, in the Summer, the evenings are cool for sleeping - It is a beautiful place to be.....

Thanks guys. Scalibor collar it is then!

Still trying to sort out everything I need to bring Millie with us this summer! Got the Heartworm tablet
and the Frontline ....
My vet is trying to persuade me that a Scalibor - ProtectorBand is required for Sand Flies
which can apparently infect dogs with Leishmaniasis. Do any of you know whether this is
required in Aude? Or is the vet just trying to get me to spend as much money as possible?!!

Can you give me the name of the Practice please Quillan as I want to write to them to make an appointment. Thanks.
-
Thank you to both of you. Would they be open on a Monday? I know some businesses are closed on Mondays.
To be no longer than my 48 hours I need to go on a Monday.
Also would they have an email address?

We will be brining our dogs with us this summer. Can anyone recommend a vet in Carcassonne please. Also what are the opening hours of French vets. Thanks.

Have a look at Chateau de Cavanac which is just South of Carcassonne off the road to the hospital. http://www.chateau-de-cavanac.fr/
They do an all inclusive 5 course meal which includes apperitif, digestive and a bottle or red, white and rose wine for 42 eurosin summer it is possible to eat outside on their covered terrace - not sure whether there would be suitable veggie food but the website does have menu so you could have a look. Have a look at Pages Jaunes for florists, hairdressers etc. Polly

It certainly is near where everyone parks, just by the railway bridge.

Route minervois is just by the side of the canal du midi and starts by the station. There is another nice restaurante there called Le grande bouffe where they cook on a wood fire. Another good one on route minervois is restaurant gil. Excellent for fish.

In the Midi Libre this week there were adverts for 30Euro flights to Paris - one way.

It is quite nice to picnic by the river Aude - which is at the foot of the Cite. There are trees for shade and plenty of space for the children to run around.

We came back from Carcassonne on 13th November, were not allowed a bottle of water and had our vacuum packed cheese confiscated ...... even though the Ryanair website says that food is allowed. Ho- Hum they seem to make it up as they go along!!!

The Lake at Carcassone is called Lac de la Cavayere head towards Montlegun which is signposted off the N113. There is also another good swimming lake Lac de Montagnes on the D118 just south of Mazamet has a beach, bbq area, couple of restaurants, crazy golf .... or the quieter lake at Pradelles which also has a beach.
Try Les Agyuades beach just passed Gruissan on the road to Narbonne Plage - nothing thre except beach. No bars, restaurants, shops..... look carefuly for it as it is hard to find.
-
Can't give you the phone number- i've just looked in Pages Jaunes and couldn't seem to find it, but the restaurant and cafe both offer decent food. They will also make baguettes for you to take away.

Our Man, Christian Barthas lives in our village at Miraval Cabardes he charges 55 euros for a stere phone 04 68 26 31 40 is probably a bit closer to Pradelles. His wife is a bit nutty (poor thing), so ring in the evening as he might not get the message.

Are they there every Saturday David? Polly
