Services
Cat Vaccinations
We provide core and lifestyle-based vaccinations to protect cats from diseases like rabies, distemper, and feline leukemia. Our protocols consider each cat's age, health, and exposure risks. Vaccinations are critical for preventing life-threatening illnesses and ensuring long-term wellness.
Dental Cleaning
Professional dental cleanings under sedation remove plaque and tartar while checking for gum disease or oral abnormalities. Annual cleanings prevent dental pain and systemic infections. Fluoride treatments strengthen enamel for improved oral health.
Hyperthyroid Surgery
We offer unilateral thyroidectomy surgery as a permanent solution for hyperthyroidism in cats. This alternative to medication or radiation therapy provides long-term relief with minimal follow-up care. Dr. Duffy's expertise ensures safe, effective outcomes for senior felines.
Behavior Counseling
Dr. Duffy addresses issues like inappropriate elimination through detailed consultations and customized solutions. Behavioral assessments identify stressors or medical causes. Personalized plans help improve cat-owner relationships and household harmony.
Routine Checkups
Annual or biannual exams monitor health metrics, update vaccinations, and screen for early disease signs. Blood work detects kidney, liver, or diabetic conditions before symptoms appear. Preventative care extends cats' lifespans and quality of life.
