Wellness Care for Your New Feline Friend

Bringing your little ball of fluff in as soon as possible will allow them to get comfortable with our vets and hospital, making future visits much easier. Not only do these first visits introduce your kitten to our practice, but they also give our team a chance to establish a baseline for their overall health, which allows us to develop a routine care plan and identify any future medical issues much faster.

Drawing upon a lifetime of love for kittens and many years of clinical experience, our veterinary team cannot wait to partner with you in a lifetime of care. Through the many phases of your pet's life, it's important to comprehend how their needs will evolve. Understanding these changes can help you provide the best care for your furry friend and strengthen your bond along the way. When you bring your new kitten into Sacramento Cat Hospital, you're not just introducing them to their veterinarian, you're providing them with quality lifelong care from a skilled, Cat Friendly Practice®.
