cat getting petted

Working couples and retirees, as well as other families and singles, have discovered that cats are wonderful companions. Their entertaining antics and affectionate behaviors have endeared these animals to millions of owners. Cats come in all colors and with all kinds of coats--short, long, or curly. Some cats are quiet and appear somewhat independent, but all cats need and want attention. Also, most cats can adapt to a variety of environments.

A cat's air of independence does not mean that it can take care of all its own needs. Cat owners have important responsibilities such as providing food and water, social interaction, and changing the litter box regularly. Remember, cats have only one life, not nine! To prevent life-threatening diseases and enjoy a healthy life, your cat will require regular veterinary medical checkups and vaccinations as well. Ask your veterinarian about the common signs of feline illness.

As with dogs, are purebreds and mixed breed cats. Find more information about what breed might suit you best, continue reading below.

Testimonials

Read What Our Clients Say

  • "We have been going to this veterinary clinic for 20 yrs, and the original Dr. Kim was amazing and actually prayed with all pets.
    I loved him and he saved 2 of our dogs lives.
    The now Dr. Kim is absolutely a great Vet and person, he treats your animals like we do "family" he is so compassionate and he doesn't try a milk you for money, if you can't afford certain things he helps to work around it.
    This establishment is THEE ONLY PLACE all of our fur babies have been, as has my family.
    I have recommended this vet to many and they are still taking their animals to him.
    The staff is amazing and all of the different techs over the 20 years have been very helpful and their knowledge is a plus
    I am actually taking my baby in today for his flea medication and I am taking my fur sister in for my mom passed and I promised her I would take good care of her
    Many Blessings to you all...

  • "I have all my 3 dogs seen by Dr. Kim now. We used to have other vets for more than 20 years, and I have to say we are very lucky to find Dr. Kim. He's so patient and fully address our concerns, and let us know what our options are. Truly professional! I can see how much he cares, and I feel very confident that my dogs are under his care. Not to mention his staff are also very friendly and professional as well. I would definitely recommend this hospital for your loving pets."
