Dr. Salinas & his staff are great. I have been a client for over a year now and am happy to have this team caring for my dogs. Previously Dr. Lung was our vet but with his retirement we came to Alley cat. Today 6/25/18 my girlfriend and I came in for a routine check up and concern for our dog who had ripped her hair out due to fleas. Even though Dr. Salinas was alone for the day with a packed schedule he took his time to address our concerns, give us treatment options, and explain everything thoroughly. We discovered our dog has allergies from fleas and found a new repellent to help her in the future. I am very glad we found Alley Cat and thankful to Dr.Salinas care and compassion for animals as well as great staff. Read Less

Worst vet ever please please don't go here. Got a stray kitten on a Friday had Alley Cat check him out said every think was good but a little constipated so if he doesn't go to bathroom bring back. Well he did poop and brought in stool sample. Now Sunday he still doesn't seem right looks constipated so i do what they recommend. Kitten up and crying all night so first thing Monday  back up to Alley Cat. Well Dr Salinas checks him out says he needs to be put down very dehydrated and has some kind of cat disease. I just spent 186$ on Friday and now Monday you said he needs to be put down. What did they do on Friday? Dr Salinas has to audacity to blame me for not bringing him in on Saturday really you said he was just constipated. Now they want another 250$ to put the Kitten down. Are F$&@ing kidding me. Took my dying kitten to another vet who said should have been put down on Friday. She only charged me 58$ and was very compassionate unlike Dr Salinas who is by far the worst vet ever zero compassion for people and their animals only wants money. Only if you can give negative stars Yelp. Trust me posted my experience on Facebook and it seems I'm not the only one who feels this way about Dr Salinas AKA Dr give me your money. Worst experience of my life so please don't give this ahole one cent. Read Less

New owners.  Will not cut our cat's nails.  They prefer organic solutions when it comes to trimming nails on kitties who don't like to have their nails done.  We took our cat their for years.  Maybe, the vet clinic is going thru growing pains.  They are making financial mistakes as well.  Good luck.  Napa is a small town with good vets.  We are taking our kitty else where.  The new owner could have announced change of ownership.  Disappointed after using this clinic for several years.

I have been bringing my cats here for many years.  I went in recently to get my cat a routine check up and shots.  I was not aware the business had sold, but it was very different when I entered this time.  Staff in the past were very helpful, kind, and courteous. The reception gals were not very friendly and I had to finally ask them directly for my invoice, they were ignoring me as I stood there...  The vet was nice enough, but seemed new to her practice and was not very thorough about the exam.  It felt like she was afraid to take a closer look at my pets teeth, and she took my docile 9 pound female cat in the back room to have a tech hold her while she looked for ear mites with a scope, huh? I did not recognize any employees from the previous ownership, not a good sign.  It feels run down and tired inside.  I will probably take my cat elsewhere the next time, just not feeling the love I have in the past.

Dr Salinas and his staff was great!! We are out of towners and woke us this morning to our dogs right eye swollen shut! We were scared and couldn't imagine going wine tasting knowing our little one might be hurt. So we called Alley Cat and they were able to see us right away. Dr Salinas was so caring and gentle with Papa even though he wasn't out normal vet. He said it wasn't anything to worry about and could be either Papa bumped into something or a sting... Nothing serious that needs medication. He asked about Papa's general health and we told him Papa takes glucosamine and without trying to sell us anything, he told us to look up information on essential fatty acids. We just felt like he really cared for Papa's overall health. If we lived in Napa, this would definite be our fur doctor. Thank you! Read Less

We have been clients of Alley Cats for 20 years. The practice was recently sold. Yesterday I took my poodle in for an ear infection. I was there 2 hours the doctor was nice. The service was extremely slow. Last night the dog cried all night. I waited until they opened at 8 am and called the answering service answered until 8:15. So I drive to Alley Cat the receptionist was there 8:20 answering phones and asked me to wait. I did I explained the problem and my frustration with the phones not being answered she didn't respond . She told me to take a seat. They would fit me in they were booked. I asked when does the doctor get in "oh 8:30 or 9;00." I left it's no way to run a business Read Less

This is the 1st time I went to see them. Excellent care for our 8 month old Lab/Beagle mix, who had a severe ear infection. Who knew those dangling big flaps would be  an impediment..Excellent care! Was a process to administer meds, but worked.Fast forward: 2 months later, my spry 10 , nothing escapes my curious and insatiable needs pup, chewed up a 50 pill bottle of Pro Biotic vits! Found this out 1/2 hour later...no destress on my puppy but  panicked. She apparently pulled her 3'-1/2" length body onto a desk and took opps to grab this seeming curious impenigible bottle. Destroyed the bottle and the pills were digested. Fortunately I called 8AM, spoke to the vet and took her in. 6 hours later...she was fine...again Excellent care! Read Less

It was a very thorough initial appointment with Dr. Salinas.  I was happy to hear him say that he prefers not to medicate animals unless absolutely necessary and gave me several other options for Enzo's itchy back.

I took in a stray cat about a month ago....it was love at first sight.  I named him Hamilton and he is now out "outside" cat.  I noticed him tugging on his ear one day and itching and just not acting like himself. I looked inside and noticed he had ear mites and maybe an infection.  Alley Cat fit me in for a same day appointment and were absolutely wonderful.  It was very traumatic for Hamilton being in a crate for first time and even more traumatic for me.  He was very violent and stressed and I was in tears by the time we saw the vet.  Everyone was so sweet and patient and by the end of the visit, Hamilton was purring and lounging on the table with ease.  I got all his meds and some vaccinations and hopefully he will start feeling better soon.  Thank you to the staff and the Dr for helping me and my young one.

Hi, we just went to Alley Cat and were treated amazing! Their visit is $49 and they are extremely reasonable with prices. We learned the other day that our dog likely had lung cancer at only 4 years of age. Thanks to them running tests that every other vet voted against, we learned he actually has a fungal infection. They spent a long time walking us through our options, educating us and even got on the phone to speak to other family members to discuss the case. That was the first time I had met the vet and she already felt like family. She even got tears in her eyes, got down on the floor with my big dog, and held him. I HIGHLY recommend them. Read Less

Very nice staff and Dr. Lamp was awesome! I am on a budget but my blue nose pitbull needed to get a suspicious lump checked out and sure enough it was skin cancer. I had no idea how much it would cost and they were very accommodating when I told them I didn't have all of the money upfont so they told me to sign up for Care Credit so I could spread out the payments and that helped me out a lot (I wanted to help my baby girl no matter what but I have a low salary and care credit made the surgery possible). The staff remembers my girl and she loves all of them, and Dr. Lamp did a beautiful surgery that is healing great!

Dr Salinas has to audacity to blame me for not bringing him in on Saturday really you said he was just constipated. Now they want another 250$ to put the Kitten down. Are F$&@ing kidding me. Took my dying kitten to another vet who said should have been put down on Friday. She only charged me 58$ and was very compassionate unlike Dr Salinas who is by far the worst vet ever zero compassion for people and their animals only wants money. Only if you can give negative stars Yelp. Trust me posted my experience on Facebook and it seems I'm not the only one who feels this way about Dr Salinas AKA Dr give me your money. Worst experience of my life so please don't give this ahole one cent. Read Less

New owners.  Will not cut our cat's nails.  They prefer organic solutions when it comes to trimming nails on kitties who don't like to have their nails done.  We took our cat their for years.  Maybe, the vet clinic is going thru growing pains.  They are making financial mistakes as well.  Good luck.  Napa is a small town with good vets.  We are taking our kitty else where.  The new owner could have announced change of ownership.  Disappointed after using this clinic for several years.

I have been bringing my cats here for many years.  I went in recently to get my cat a routine check up and shots.  I was not aware the business had sold, but it was very different when I entered this time.  Staff in the past were very helpful, kind, and courteous. The reception gals were not very friendly and I had to finally ask them directly for my invoice, they were ignoring me as I stood there...  The vet was nice enough, but seemed new to her practice and was not very thorough about the exam.  It felt like she was afraid to take a closer look at my pets teeth, and she took my docile 9 pound female cat in the back room to have a tech hold her while she looked for ear mites with a scope, huh? I did not recognize any employees from the previous ownership, not a good sign.  It feels run down and tired inside.  I will probably take my cat elsewhere the next time, just not feeling the love I have in the past.

Dr Salinas and his staff was great!! We are out of towners and woke us this morning to our dogs right eye swollen shut! We were scared and couldn't imagine going wine tasting knowing our little one might be hurt. So we called Alley Cat and they were able to see us right away. Dr Salinas was so caring and gentle with Papa even though he wasn't out normal vet. He said it wasn't anything to worry about and could be either Papa bumped into something or a sting... Nothing serious that needs medication. He asked about Papa's general health and we told him Papa takes glucosamine and without trying to sell us anything, he told us to look up information on essential fatty acids. We just felt like he really cared for Papa's overall health. If we lived in Napa, this would definite be our fur doctor. Thank you! Read Less

We have been clients of Alley Cats for 20 years. The practice was recently sold. Yesterday I took my poodle in for an ear infection. I was there 2 hours the doctor was nice. The service was extremely slow. Last night the dog cried all night. I waited until they opened at 8 am and called the answering service answered until 8:15. So I drive to Alley Cat the receptionist was there 8:20 answering phones and asked me to wait. I did I explained the problem and my frustration with the phones not being answered she didn't respond .

This is the 1st time I went to see them. Excellent care for our 8 month old Lab/Beagle mix, who had a severe ear infection. Who knew those dangling big flaps would be  an impediment..Excellent care! Was a process to administer meds, but worked.Fast forward: 2 months later, my spry 10 , nothing escapes my curious and insatiable needs pup, chewed up a 50 pill bottle of Pro Biotic vits! Found this out 1/2 hour later...no destress on my puppy but  panicked. She apparently pulled her 3'-1/2" length body onto a desk and took opps to grab this seeming curious impenigible bottle. Destroyed the bottle and the pills were digested. Fortunately I called 8AM, spoke to the vet and took her in. 6 hours later...she was fine...again Excellent care! Read Less

I took in a stray cat about a month ago....it was love at first sight.  I named him Hamilton and he is now out "outside" cat.  I noticed him tugging on his ear one day and itching and just not acting like himself. I looked inside and noticed he had ear mites and maybe an infection.  Alley Cat fit me in for a same day appointment and were absolutely wonderful.  It was very traumatic for Hamilton being in a crate for first time and even more traumatic for me.  He was very violent and stressed and I was in tears by the time we saw the vet.  Everyone was so sweet and patient and by the end of the visit, Hamilton was purring and lounging on the table with ease.  I got all his meds and some vaccinations and hopefully he will start feeling better soon.  Thank you to the staff and the Dr for helping me and my young one.

Hi, we just went to Alley Cat and were treated amazing! Their visit is $49 and they are extremely reasonable with prices. We learned the other day that our dog likely had lung cancer at only 4 years of age. Thanks to them running tests that every other vet voted against, we learned he actually has a fungal infection. They spent a long time walking us through our options, educating us and even got on the phone to speak to other family members to discuss the case. That was the first time I had met the vet and she already felt like family. She even got tears in her eyes, got down on the floor with my big dog, and held him. I HIGHLY recommend them. Read Less

Very nice staff and Dr. Lamp was awesome! I am on a budget but my blue nose pitbull needed to get a suspicious lump checked out and sure enough it was skin cancer. I had no idea how much it would cost and they were very accommodating when I told them I didn't have all of the money upfont so they told me to sign up for Care Credit so I could spread out the payments and that helped me out a lot (I wanted to help my baby girl no matter what but I have a low salary and care credit made the surgery possible). The staff remembers my girl and she loves all of them, and Dr. Lamp did a beautiful surgery that is healing great!
