Choosing Your Cat's Veterinarian

To choose the veterinarian, we have to do with caress the same as we would do with our own doctor or dentist. As much we as to the cat must like the veterinarian to trust him; he must be nice, besides expert. The best thing is to ask to some friend or to a neighbor who has cat, they will recommend us some confidence veterinarian.

On having chosen him, it is necessary to consider several factors. The distance is important; there are too much cats that feel anguish when they travel to a place that is far and a long tour in car is a great disadvantage in case of urgency. If we do not have car, it is necessary to be able to come to the veterinarian in the public transportation and, if we work during the day, it would be suitable to find one that was opened at least one night or every Saturday.

Besides of these practical considerations, we can look for a veterinary hospital that has a clinic for cats. This one has the advantage that the cat does not scare for the presence of dogs in the room of wait.

It is necessary to telephone before to the hospital to coordinate a visit with their personnel. The most probable thing is that we see the receptionist or the nurses and not to the veterinarians; they must be also friendly and compliant. We can ask that they let us to see their facilities, the most probable thing is that in the big hospitals there have more consultations of specialties (dentist, ophthalmology, dermatology, internal medicine, cardiology, neurology and therapy of behavior) that in the small ones.
