This place is paws-down the best vet I have ever had. As a cat-owner for 20 years, I have been to quite a few different vets and no one cares for the cat experience as much as the staff at the Cat Clinic. My cat is a notorious vet-hater and usually hisses and growls and causes a scene but she loves this place.

I feel that the staff truly cares about Cinder and her well-being. I trust and depend on The Cat Clinic to make the right decisions to keep her in great health!

We just started taking our two cats to the Cat Clinic and couldn't be happier with the experience we've had thus far. Everyone is so attentive and friendly - including the two resident cats we met. Highly recommend these folks to anyone with cats!

I can't say enough good things about Cat Clinic. My cats have been seen by both Dr. Burner and Dr. Evans. Both are great at listening to concerns and finding a solution and answer all questions. The clinic is very efficient but you never feel rushed. I've only had positive interactions with the office staff and vet tech's and assistants. Shana, who I've talked to the most, is SO awesome about following up and finding a new solution. Such a great team, I'm bummed I'm moving away soon!

If you are wondering about where and who will give you the best service, care, and compassion, please know The Cat Clinic should be your choice. My mother and I still speak about the unsurpassed kindness and consideration we received when handling our difficult and heart wrenching realization of Frank's demise. She had 18 years of the BEST life, and we were devastated thinking of our lives without her. The treatment we received at the Cat Clinic could not have been more appropriate.
