Covid Protocol Update

We wanted to update our clients that our current protocols for office visits will remain as they are for the foreseeable future. That is, no one is allowed into the office except for very limited circumstances. Please call when you arrive at the office and we will take pertinent information and history over the phone. You will be instructed when and where to bring your carrier. If you are picking up medications or other supplies, please call when you arrive, and once you are checked out, the material will be brought outside. When we are done with our exams, we will be calling you, so please make sure we have the proper cell phone number and please remain available for the Doctors call.

We have had a few clients concerned that their cat may be more nervous without them, however, we have found most cats are calm, and seem more relaxed without their “stressed owners” adding to the exam process. We try to do our examinations and procedures as calmly and quickly as possible to decrease your cat’s stress.

Recently, a new cat carrier from Van Ness pet products called the Calm Cat Carrier has caught our attention. This carrier has an internal drawer system so a cat does not need to be touched to come out of the carrier. This seems like a great stress reducer for our patients. Check it out at Vannesspets.com.

​I hope everyone remains cautious and healthy. I have talked with several of our clients that have gone through Covid 19 and it is not something to take lightly. Wear your mask. Ask others to wear their mask properly. Be safe.
