The KatKath Urinary Catheter Insertion Pack contains a catheter, a drape towel, polypropylene suture, lubricating gel, a Luer-slip syringe and a clear tray. The complete set costs £10.99.

Vygon Vet General Manager Chris Kenyon, said: "Not only does our KatKath pack ensure everything that's needed is in one place and sterile, it can also save vets up to 50% compared with prices if they buy similar products separately. It's a win-win situation."

The Spay Tray and Minor Operations Set (pictured right) includes a selection of forceps, a Mayo Hagar needle holder, a scalpel, a pair of dissecting scissors, a hand towel, drapes, a tray and five radiopaque swabs.

Chris said: "Our Spay Tray and Minor Ops Sets are produced to the highest standards using top quality materials. Having the required items in one pack eradicates the need to go through the expensive process of washing, re-packing and re-sterilisation, and from an admin point of view invoicing is easy with one single code covering all the different pack parts."

The Spay Tray and Minor Ops Sets are available for an introductory price of £12.50 for a limited period.

In the blurb, Vygon Vet says the benefits of its procedure packs include:

  • Help organise your theatre and storage space
  • Save time preparing for a procedure
  • Standardise practice
  • Reduce inventory
  • Simplify invoicing
  • Save money

The company is also offering a retrieval service through which the instruments from up to ten packs can be disposed for £14.50.
