Our Approach

Preparing Your Cat for a Visit

Before Your Appointment

  • Get the carrier out early: Place it in a familiar spot days before the visit so it feels less like a trap. Add a blanket, treats, or toys inside.
  • Use pheromones: Spraying the carrier with a feline pheromone product 30 minutes before travel can reduce stress.
  • Familiar bedding helps: Bring a blanket or towel that smells like home to line the carrier.

On the Way

  • Cover the carrier: A light towel draped over the carrier can reduce visual stress.
  • Drive calmly: Keep music low and avoid sudden stops. Cats feel vibrations more intensely than dogs.

At the Clinic

  • Keep the carrier covered: We’ll guide you through a Fear Free process once you arrive—keeping your cat calmer until it’s their turn.
  • Allow time to settle: Our team takes extra time so cats can feel secure before handling or exams.

What to Expect
at Your Visit

Your pet’s experience matters as much as their treatment. Here’s how we make visits better:

A Calm Welcome

Soft colors, quiet spaces, and a friendly hello help set the tone from the moment you arrive.

Time to Settle In

We never rush; pets are given space and time to feel comfortable before exams begin.

Gentle Handling

Our team uses low-stress techniques, avoiding unnecessary restraint whenever possible.

Personalized Care

Each appointment is tailored to your pet’s medical needs and their unique personality.
