  • Classical music
  • Minimal restraints
  • Lack of perfumes and scented cleaning supplies
  • Feliway-infused towels to cover your cat’s carrier
  • Dim lighting in the exam room
  • Anti-nausea or anti-anxiety medications in advance of appointment, when needed

We have taken many steps to elevate care for cats by reducing the stress for the cat, caregiver, and also the entire veterinary team. However, if your cat gets really stressed out, ask us about anti-anxiety medications or whether we can do a home visit.
