We use this http://www.thamesmedical.com/product.php?xProd=20 cat doppler from Thames Medical. It gets used a lot (we offer free bp checks to all older cats, and re-test the bp for any hypertensive, CRF, heart patients regularly), sometimes several times a day, and copes with it well. I've always found it easy to use, and headphones can be used with it if you prefer, although I personally find it easier not to use them as I find the pulse quicker without and the process takes less time. Thames Medical have always been very helpful whenever we have had a problem, and the replacement cuffs are inexpensive. If anything were to happen to our doppler I am sure we would replace it with the same again as it is so reliable and never seems to throw up weird results.

we use the park doppler and with cats use headphones so they don't get spooked by the sound and have good consistent resluts
