Initially when I took my 4 cats there it seemed perfect. They only see cats, there was never a wait and Dr. Ratti was very knowledgeable. Over time I felt that there was a lot of pressure to bring the cats it too frequently. Once they decide a cat is a "senior", they demand 6 monthly visits. Each visit cost up to $500 including testing and not vaccinations. When I was not sure which cat needed to be seen, one of the people who work there literally accused me of negligence because I was not sure which cat needed to be seen. When I became defensive and said I run a busy medical practice, she sarcastically stated that she has 6 cats and knows when each one needs to be seen. I should have transferred my records then, but continued going because I trusted Dr. Ratti. Over the past month, one of my old cats (161/2) has had terrible trouble urinating and defecating throughout the house. They knew she had blood in her urine the first time she went, but when I brought her back the second time, they did not repeat the urine to see if there was still blood. Instead of looking for the cause of her discomfort, she was sent home with 5 medications: high blood opressure, stool softener, pain medication, arthritis medication and potassium. None of these addressed her connstant need to urinate or the blood in the urine. The day she came home she urinated on the wall and a pee pee pad and it was almost pure blood. I now question her medical acumen. As a physician, I would make certain I repeated a urine if a patient had blood in their urine. I know how much my cat was suffering. She tried to either pee or poo every few minutes. She paced up and down and was clearly very very uncomfortable. Today she was euthenized because a specialist suspected malignancy and understood that the quality of life of both the animal and the human need to be respected. Although he could have tried steroids, he and I knew this would not cure her. He empathized with my agony of having to make a decision and supported my decision. He agreed that it was inappropriate to send her home with yet another medication and have her confined to my personal bathroom because by now she was urinating everywhere (the only other bathroom is very small). Until today, I felt no emotional support. It saddens me to write this because I put my trust in them since 2007. Before recently, the younger cats were not "seniors" and were only required to come in annually. The demand to have 4 cats come in every 6 months plus the other issues changed my mind.

Caring, honest, responsive, cat-friendly vet! We travel over 40 miles to bring my cat here for treatment. He is 18 years old, and going strong. The exam tables are granite, and heated to make things less stressful for kitty. No unnecessary, mysterious lab tests done here, like my local vet does. My cat is especially aggressive, but the staff here handles him like professionals. Emergency visits? No problem. Two times we thought my cat was a goner. But they helped him get better and stronger. You can tell that the vets care by all the holiday cards they get from their feline patients.

Our 2 cats almost didnt make the appointment due to their nerves. The office took my call in stride. Once the 2 cats got to the office, it was smooth sailing. They are "cat whisperers" there! The vet and assistant were calm and truly caring. They asked insightful questions, gave me tips to snip nails and prep the cats for the next visit. All around, a VERY positive experience. I recommend it!

This was my first time at the CAT CLINIC, My cat, Molly, and I had a great experience. I got an appointment the same day I called. The atmosphere there was calm and soothing, perfect for a very nervous cat. The doctor and her assistant were professional and knowledgeable. I plan on bringing Molly and her sister, Penny to the CAT CLINIC from now on.

Smokey and Bandit, my cats love the CAT Clinic. The gentle care they get soothes them. I love the atmosphere of healthy felines who welcome us and the price is right. I remind all cat lovers that I know about the CAT Clinic. Darlene Jackson
