The Supervet: Noel Fitzpatrick

The vets treat Schrodinger, a cat with a shattered thigh bone due to being hit by a car. There's also Lois, an English bulldog with an extravagant diet of Camembert and ice lollies. And an elderly and much loved springer spaniel called Flossie has lost control of her back legs.

A dachshund called Frankie is brought in by owners Kelly and Daniel to see if Noel can do anything to repair a deformity in his foot. A ten-month-old Labrador needs a hip replacement before he can begin his training as a medical alert dog to help his owner with her rare health condition. And Emily, an eight-year-old shih-tzu from Bognor Regis, needs an operation to fix her spine which is extremely risky, presenting her owners with an agonising decision.

Noel meets Lara the cat, who jumped into a removal van and went missing; got hit by a car and then attacked by a fox. And there's Chief, a husky in need of a hip replacement. But his owner can't afford to pay. And Bertie, a 12-year-old spaniel, is going lame and needs his ruptured ligaments to be fixed.

Ira, a two year-old Labrador is fitted with a bionic spine. Eight-year-old French Bulldog Tom has been brought in by his anxious owner Rob with a long list of chronic ailments. And Matt and Rebecca come to the clinic with their three year-old cat Marley, whose leg may have to be amputated.
