👍What Pet Owners Praised
Owners consistently praised the cat‑only focus and the team’s gentle, genuinely caring manner that helps even anxious cats relax. Many highlighted knowledgeable vets who diagnose accurately and manage issues like abscesses, dental problems, eye surgery, diabetes and IBD, with good updates through treatment. The clinic feels clean and calm, visits are often on time with short‑notice appointments available, and pricing is frequently described as reasonable or economical. Numerous long‑term clients say they wouldn’t take their cats anywhere else.
💬Common Feedback & Suggestions
While the tone is overwhelmingly positive, a few reviewers reported serious problems. These include a case felt to be a misdiagnosis leading to unnecessary surgery, plus admin/clinical errors such as an IV line left in after discharge, incorrect quotes, and a preparation email with wrong instructions, alongside some unclear communication. Several owners raised cost concerns (e.g., pricey cat biscuits, insulin or consult fees) and one wished vaccine availability had been flagged before booking; another suggested longer hours, and one described a cold manner during euthanasia. A small number also questioned breed‑specific knowledge around Bengal vaccinations.
