Services
Cat Grooming
Professional cat grooming services help prevent health issues through regular brushing, nail trimming, and skin inspections. Our veterinary-supervised grooming identifies potential problems like matting, parasites, or skin abnormalities while maintaining your cat's coat health. Services include hair trimming, anal gland expression, and specialized care for senior cats.
Wellness Exams
Annual comprehensive wellness exams detect early signs of illness through physical evaluations, weight monitoring, and diagnostic testing. Our exams include dental checks, parasite screening, and vaccination updates to maintain optimal feline health. We recommend bi-annual exams for senior cats to monitor age-related conditions.
Kitten Programs
Structured kitten wellness programs provide essential vaccinations, deworming, and spaying/neutering schedules. Our program includes growth monitoring, nutrition counseling, and behavioral assessments to establish lifelong health foundations. Early intervention helps prevent common feline diseases and developmental issues.
Spay/Neuter
Surgical sterilization services prevent pet overpopulation while improving long-term health outcomes. We perform spaying for female cats and neutering for males, typically recommending procedures between 8 weeks and 5 months of age. Our program includes pre-surgical evaluations and post-operative care instructions.
Vaccinations
Core vaccination programs protect against feline panleukopenia, calicivirus, and rhinotracheitis. We administer rabies vaccines as required by law and recommend feline leukemia vaccinations for at-risk cats. Our vaccination schedules follow AA FP guidelines with personalized booster recommendations based on lifestyle factors.
