Cats Limited Veterinary Hospital

Cats Limited Veterinary Hospital Cats Limited Veterinary Hospital in West Hartford is proud to be an award-winning, cat-only practice.

Our commitment is simple: provide the highest standard of veterinary medicine while treating every cat with the compassion and respect they deserve. Cats Limited opened its doors on January 5th, 1995 in a leasehold storefront on Farmington Avenue in West Hartford. The cat only practice offered patients and their families something different: care focused just on cats, in a calm and safe environmen

t with individualized care for every patient. Over the following years, and as the demand for uniquely high-quality cat care grew, so did Cats Limited. By 2006, Cats Limited outgrew the original facility and Dr. Lafer purchased the current building on New Britain Avenue. After extensive renovations, we moved to our new hospital in August 2007. The move to our new facility brought with it the ability to provide even better medical and surgical care and an upscale boarding facility. Today, the Cats Limited team continues to be led by Dr. Lafer and includes two other feline veterinarians and a talented and caring support team. Cats Limited Veterinary Hospital is proud to be the first feline-only hospital in Connecticut that is accredited by the American Animal Hospital Association (AAHA). This is important to you and your pet because since 1996, we have regularly undergone extensive voluntary evaluations by AAHA to ensure that we exceed the association’s high-quality standards of care.

🎉 Today we’re celebrating Dr. Zach Bradley’s 3-year anniversary with Cats Limited!

Since joining us in 2023, Dr. Bradley has brought compassion, knowledge, and a genuine love of cats to our patients and their families. When he isn’t caring for cats—including his own duo Gary and Billy—he enjoys writing music with his wife, trying great food, and playing games of all kinds.

Thank you, Dr. Bradley, for three wonderful years as part of the Cats Limited family! Please join us in celebrating him! 🐾💚

When pets start scratching, fleas are often the first thing people think of, but they’re far from the only cause of itching.

Allergies, skin infections, dry skin, food sensitivities, and environmental triggers like pollen or grass can all lead to persistent scratching, licking, and discomfort, even when no fleas are present.

Because many skin conditions look similar, identifying the root cause is the best first step toward relief. ✨

Shade isn’t optional, it’s essential for pet safety ☀️🐾

If your pet spends time outdoors, access to proper shade and shelter is critical for preventing heat exhaustion and heat stroke. Even mild temperatures can become dangerous without protection from direct sunlight.

Support your pet’s wellness with safe outdoor spaces, fresh water, and regular monitoring.
