Bringing your Cat to the Veterinarian
We know that often times the most difficult part of keeping your cat healthy is actually getting your cat to the vet’s office in the first place. While our clinic practices low stress handling techniques to make your cat’s visit to the vet less traumatic, the process of even coaxing your cat into the carrier can be too stressful for both of you to attempt it.
