We have taken multiple cats to this vet for shots, treatments, etc. We have received great prompt care at affordable prices and adore the workers and staff there.
HOWEVER, I must press that you get a second opinion on putting animals down, from this office.
We brought in our cat, who had breathing issues, from what we assumed were allergies from the winds. The Temp Vet that weekend, did an xray, and told us she had cancer, and showed us 3 locations of 'cancer' in that xray. She recommended we put the cat down, because she was going to die before the week was over. We brought the cat home, it was my brother's cat, and decided to take it to the Veterinary Medical and Surgical Group (VMSG) to put our cat down that next day (since costs were about the same to do it at Cottage and VMSG) I had the forethought to send over the xrays of the cat to VMSG. The Vet (@ VMSG) looked at the xrays, and simply stated the cat was FAT and that 'cancer' on the xray was fat and slightly asthmatic lungs. After about 400 dollars of blood tests and medications at VMSG, our cat was perfectly fine that following week.
If you are told to put your pet down, from Cottage, please get a second opinion. I am certainly glad we did. This is a case of an extremely simple assumption gone wrong and could have been worse if we did not get that second opinion. Read Less
