If I could give this place 0 stars I would. I am disgusted that this place is even in business. I am not a snotty bitch and I never write negative reviews unless something REALLY bothers me.
I recently had my kitten spayed here, once the surgery was complete and I arrived to pick her up, I asked if she needed an E-Collar (THE CONE) They told me that cats don't usually lick their wounds and that she would be fine. Two days later, on a SATURDAY (which they are not open on), the area around the stitches (p.s. they don't use glue) was a swollen, discharging, and smelled like the skin had rotted. It was so disturbing that I couldn't bare to even look at it!!! My boyfriend cleaned it up with peroxide but this situation was not even close to being resolved. My boyfriend bought an E-Collar (20 dollars for a piece of bent plastic) and we put it on her first thing!
On Monday, we took her back to this place and they said "oh that's weird that your cat licked herself, that's "UNUSUAL" ' - They prescribed some antibiotics (for the discharging, smelly, RED bug huge bump of a wound)
I thought it was VERY weird for them to say that cats don't usually lick themselves so I called up the Media City Animal Hospital down the street to see what they had to say about putting a cone on a cats head after surgery. They told me (without me telling them WHY i was asking), "We always put an E-Collar on a cat no matter what because if they lick their wound it will get infected".
HALLELUJAH!!! Someone sounds EDUCATED!!! I took Miri to meet with one of the Media City Animal hospital doctors FIRST thing today and she is doing much better. The doctor was pretty disgusted to hear that this place said "E-Collars are not standard post-Surgery for cats"
I hope my review will help you make your decision on where you are going to take your loved one to be spayed/neuter. I would suggest never going here EVER. There is an extremely nice place right down the street.
this whole thing has cost me DOUBLE than the original cost of a spay.
(Yes, I posted on yelp as well.)
