Marsden V-25 Veterinary Scale, 25kg Capacity, Ideal for Cats and Small Dogs.
- 25kg capacity, 10g graduations, bright LCD display, covering cats and small to medium dogs including most breeds up to approximately Cocker Spaniel size, at Marsden's most accessible price point for professional-grade small animal veterinary weighing for surgery, home visit and home-based monitoring use.
- Memory recall function stores the previous weight reading for instant comparison, supporting rapid within-consultation weight trend assessment for pets on weight management programmes, chronic disease monitoring (CKD, hyperthyroidism, diabetes) and post-operative recovery weight tracking.
- Bright LCD display remains clearly readable in variable surgery lighting conditions, with Hold and Tare functions for accurate readings with moving animals and battery-powered operation for use in any location without mains dependency for home visits, breeders and mobile veterinary services.
- Cost-effective specification for veterinary practices, rescue organisations and breeders requiring accurate small animal weight monitoring without the premium cost of the V-20 or V-22, while maintaining the 10g precision appropriate for drug dosing calculations in cats and small dogs above approximately 1kg body weight.
Marsden V-25: Affordable Small Animal Veterinary Scale with Memory Recall and Bright Display
The Marsden V-25 is an affordable, accurate small animal veterinary scale providing 25kg capacity and 10g graduations across a bright LCD display with memory recall, Hold and Tare functions, making it the practical entry-level professional specification for veterinary practices, rescue organisations and breeders requiring reliable small animal weight monitoring without the premium cost of the V-20 or V-22. The 25kg capacity extends coverage slightly beyond the V-20 and V-22, accommodating heavier cats, small to medium dogs and larger small animals such as large rabbits where the 20kg range of the other compact scales may be insufficient.
Battery-powered operation and a lightweight portable format support home visit vets, mobile veterinary services and home-based pet monitoring applications where mains access is unavailable.

Veterinary Professional Context
The V-25 occupies the practical middle ground between the basic home-use pet scale and the premium V-20/V-22 professional range, providing professional veterinary accuracy at a price accessible to smaller practices, single-vet mobile services and rescue organisations with constrained equipment budgets. The memory recall function is particularly useful in weight management consultations where the previous weight reading stored in the scale's memory can be compared with the current reading in seconds, without referring to written records or a patient management system, supporting efficient consultation workflows for obesity management programmes and chronic disease monitoring visits. The 10g graduation is appropriate for all standard drug dosing calculations in cats above approximately 1kg and dogs across the small breed spectrum to 25kg.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the memory recall function on the V-25 and how is it used in a consultation?
The memory recall function stores the most recent weight reading in the scale's memory when the reading is saved by the clinician. At the next consultation, the stored previous weight can be recalled and displayed on the screen before or alongside the new reading, allowing an instant comparison without opening the patient record. This is clinically useful for rapid within-consultation weight trend assessment: a cat on a renal diet can be weighed and the previous weight recalled in seconds, giving the vet an immediate indication of weight trajectory before referring to the clinical notes. The function is particularly valuable in mobile and home visit scenarios where a patient management system may not be accessible at the point of weighing.
When should the V-25 be specified over the V-22 for a veterinary practice?
Specify the V-25 where budget is the primary constraint and the additional features of the V-22 (5g precision, automatic Hold, Battersea-grade accuracy) are not required for the practice's patient profile. For practices seeing a typical mix of adult cats and small to medium dogs where 10g precision is adequate for both clinical monitoring and drug dosing, the V-25 delivers reliable professional accuracy at a lower cost. Specify the V-22 where the patient caseload includes a significant proportion of neonates, toy breeds or very small animals where 5g precision is clinically meaningful, or where automatic Hold is a priority for high-volume or difficult animal handling environments.
