🐾Tips for Pet Owners

If your cat is typically uneasy at the vet, a feline-only setting here may help them settle more comfortably.
Budget around $130 for a basic checkup based on one reviewer’s experience, and ask for an estimate in advance.
Bring any behaviour questions—staff have offered practical tips to support at-home care.
Call ahead to confirm appointment availability and fees, since reviews didn’t mention wait times or booking details.
