Your cats comfort and safety are important to us!
Please bring your cat to the clinic in a secure carrier for every visit.
We often see cats arrive in arms, wrapped in towels, or sitting on laps. While it might feel comforting to hold them, the clinic is a completely unfamiliar and stressful environment for cats. New smells, barking dogs, and strangers can quickly trigger panic, even in the calmest pet.
A secure carrier helps by:
• preventing cats from escaping in a stressful environment
• protecting them from dogs and other animals in the waiting room
• reducing fear by giving them a safe, enclosed space
• allowing our team to handle and examine them safely
• preventing injuries to your cat, other pets, and staff
Cats that are carried into the clinic often become frightened and try to jump or run. This puts them at risk of injury and can make an already stressful visit much worse.
Even if your cat is “usually calm” at home, the veterinary clinic is a very different environment.
For your cat’s safety and comfort, carriers are essential.
Thank you for helping us keep your cat safe and your visit as calm as possible.
