Judging by the number of pet businesses located in and around Mansfield, the area is clearly a popular place to keep many different pets. The stunning Four Seasons Shopping Centre is the town’s main focus for multiple retailers, although there are plenty of independent retailers in other parts of the town. Mansfield Pet Store in Westgate has been established in the town for over 100 years and has a particularly popular live pet section. Stock varies on a weekly basis, but nearly always includes hamsters, mice, rats and rabbits, as well as a selection of exotic animals and freshwater or tropical fish.
Kennelgate Pet Food Superstores in Fulmar Close sells almost every pet food brand, whilst L ‘N’ D Exotics in Nursery Street is a brilliant little pet shop for rarer species of snakes, lizards and spiders. If your dog needs a ‘wash and brush up’, Maxis Pampered Paws in Beck Crescent offer a great service including washing, drying and nail clipping. For holiday time, Baulker Lane Boarding Kennels have a good reputation for the care and attention they give to almost any dog breed. A big choice of Mansfield vets includes Cedars Veterinary Centre in the High Street. Apart from the usual household pets they can also help with problems for some exotic species.
