Collection details
SutureVet stocks a carefully curated range of feline veterinary sutures suited to the delicate tissue structures and unique physiological characteristics of cats. Feline patients require fine-gauge, low-reactivity suture materials that minimise post-operative inflammation and reduce the risk of self-trauma to wounds.
Our feline suture range includes absorbable monofilament options such as poliglecaprone and polydioxanone for subcutaneous and internal closures, as well as non-absorbable nylon and polypropylene sutures for skin closure where suture removal is planned. Fine gauge options from 3-0 down to 5-0 and beyond are stocked to suit the smaller tissue planes encountered in routine and complex feline surgery.
Whether you are performing an ovariohysterectomy, a wound repair, a urethrostomy, or soft tissue oncology, our feline suture range provides the clinical precision your patients deserve. All products are ISO-certified and trusted by feline specialist practices and general veterinary clinics across the UK.

Ethicon VICRYL RAPIDE is a sterile, synthetic, rapidly absorbable surgical suture composed of polyglactin 910 and specially processed to accelerate absorption, providing short-term wound support during the early stages of healing.
This USP 5-0 undyed suture is supplied in a 45 cm length and is armed with a single-armed P-3 PRIME taper point needle measuring 13 mm with a 3/8 circle curvature, designed to provide smooth, atraumatic penetration for superficial soft tissue closure.
VICRYL RAPIDE sutures are absorbed more rapidly than standard VICRYL by hydrolysis, resulting in minimal tissue reaction and reducing the need for suture removal in appropriate cases. Each suture is sterile, single use and supplied in boxes of 36 for professional hospital and clinical environments.

Ethicon VICRYL RAPIDE is a sterile synthetic absorbable braided surgical suture manufactured from polyglactin 910 and designed for rapid absorption and short-term wound support.
The braided construction provides excellent handling characteristics and secure knot performance, making it suitable for superficial soft tissue approximation where extended tensile strength retention is not required.
This USP 3-0 undyed variant measures 45 cm in length and is supplied as a non-needled ligature (no attached needle), allowing flexibility for ligation or surgeon-selected needle use.
VICRYL RAPIDE is engineered to provide fast absorption, typically losing tensile strength more rapidly than standard VICRYL sutures, making it ideal for skin closure and minor procedures.
Each suture is sterile, single use and supplied in boxes of 24 for professional surgical environments.

Ethicon VICRYL is a sterile, synthetic, absorbable surgical suture composed of a copolymer made of 90% glycolide and 10% L-lactide (polyglactin 910). The suture is braided and coated to enhance handling characteristics, knot security and smooth tissue passage.
This USP 4-0 violet suture is supplied in a 75 cm (30 inch) length and is armed with a single-armed CC-1 conventional cutting needle measuring 13 mm with a 3/8 circle curvature, designed to deliver sharp, controlled penetration for precise skin and superficial tissue closure.
VICRYL sutures are absorbed by hydrolysis and have been shown to be nonantigenic, nonpyrogenic and to elicit only a slight tissue reaction during absorption. Each suture is sterile, single use and supplied in boxes of 36 for professional hospital and clinical environments.
