Please help. I will be staying in Lower Normandy & I want to find a Vet. Needs to speak English & be part of the Pet Passport scheme. Any ideas or recommendations please ? Also, has anyone flown into Paris, Charles De Galle airport with pets ? I would be glad to hear of any personal experiences. Thanks, Cliff.

Unfortunately, there isn't a real handy way to find English speaking vets. The US consulate list of English-speaking doctors includes a few vets but only in Paris. Your best option is to ask around once you get there - but given the concentration of anglophone expats in Normandy, I expect you'll find someone pretty easily.

If the pet passport scheme is what I think it is, I think all vets in France are able to deliver a European pet passport. When I took my cats in for their shots this year, I was advised that I could get a European pet passport for an addition 7€ I think it was.
Cheers,
Bev

If you speak/write a little bit of French or know someone able to you could try to contact the "Conseil régional de l'Ordre des Vétérinaires de Normandie" (25, Rue St Michel - 14000 CAEN - Tel: +33 231 521 101 - Fax +33 231 342 034) to ask for the details of an English speaking Vet in the area you intend to visit. You can also have a look at the national website of the Profession Portail de l'Ordre National des Vtrinaires franais.
