Am I biased because I work here? Maybe, but somethings gotta be said for a place that keeps its employees 3, 6, 7 or like myself 10+ years. I have many cats of my own and have had many a scare and sick kitties, from acute kidney failure to stray cat diabetics that I took on the task of medicating every day. To losing cats to the fatal FIP. And always I feel confident in the treatments and diagnostics we did on my pets. Finding the problems, and even some we weren't expecting, quickly. Treated and got my pets relief and back to feeling good. Read Less

When my 12 year old cat was crying relentlessly day and night I took her to her previous vet and was repeatedly brushed off with the advice to "just play with her". Finally I decided to bring her to Cheshire and she was quickly and properly diagnosed. After treatment and a lot of support from a great staff she is finally happy and calm. Seeing my little buddy able to snuggle up and sleep through the night again is more than enough to earn this group five stars! Read Less

My poor fur baby wasn't feeling well and I was worried after many failed attempts with other vets. I found Cheshire and they got my tweaky baby in the following business day. (Called Saturday got him in Monday) the staff listened to my worries and concerns and showed compassion and understanding to my worries about my furbaby. I wasn't judged for becoming emotional in regards to his health. They told me what they thought could be the cause and what they wanted to do with a full detailed printout of cost and treatment. Was more then I was expecting when I first walked in but after hearing what they believed his illness to be I found it very fair and reasonable. They were gentle with my scared tweak and very reassuring that he would recover well. During the time they had his in the back away from me there was another very angry cat yowling shortly after a staff member come in to let me know that it was not my kitty making that noise and that it was an angry kitty getting his nails cut. I am very happy with the care that tweak received and the kindness of the staff. I was assured that my kitten was in the upmost of health other then the concerns I took him in for. I consider myself the crazy cat mama and am highly protective of my fur babies, and I would highly recommend Cheshire Cat hospital to anyone with a sick or hurt kitty. Read Less

Highly recommended! My cat had a bad abscessed tooth, got her in, pulled the tooth and back home the same day. My girl is back her own self again. Awesome, caring staff. Excellent service and didn't cost an arm and a leg. Thank you so much! Read Less

Our cat Tee Tee is 15 years old. At the beginning of the week her face started swelling. We had an appt. with a different vet for this morning and they called me an hour and half before her appt. time to cancel because the vet had the "flu". After making quite a few phone calls I found an opening for the afternoon with Cheshire Cat Hospital. We arrived for the visit, filled out the required paperwork and within a few min. we were able to see the vet. Our TeeTee is quite a special case of an old cranky cat so she had to be sedated so the vet could get a better look at her jaw. I also want to say that they did nothing without checking with us first and being sure we were sure with what was going on. Everything was done efficiently, professionally and with Tee Tee's comfort in mind. Turns out she had an infected root and the tooth would have to be pulled. It was a molar so they actually had to drill to be able to break the tooth apart. Within an hour and a half our girl was ready to be picked up and brought home. They made sure we understood the directions and everything that had to be done. They thoroughly went over the bill with us and made sure we knew if we needed anything else we could call. Tonight Tee Tee is doing very well, although I do think she's a little wobbly still :) but she has eaten and drinking water very well. We could not have been more pleased with the care she received and the compassion they showed her and us as well. She's very much one of our girls and we were super worried we might not be bringing her back when we left the house this morning. Thank you Cheshire Cat Hospital! Keep up the great work! Read Less

Love this vet! It was a very comfortable environment for my cat who usually fears car rides and new people. The staff are very friendly and helpful. They called my cat by her name. Since they are a cat only facility, there's no need to fear a random unleaded dog will come charging your cat when you walk in the door. And as a bonus, every year around Christmas time they send you a Christmas card with some homegrown catnip in it. My cat was rubbing her face in it before I even got it out of the envelope. I highly recommend Cheshire Cat for all your veterinary needs! Read Less

I have been trying to get a handle on my cat's chronic sinus issues for years. I don't feel like any vet has given me a good answer until I met with Dr. Nicole. They also ran a full blood panel on my cat and found some red flags and Nicole did an excellent job of explaining everything to me. I will definitely change over to Cheshire for my cats' veterinary care. Read Less

I took my cat in for a visit and the vet treated us both with such respect and kindness. When the vet first entered the room she let my cat hang out in the sink where he felt safe and allowed him to get used to her before she went over to look at him. When she did go over to him she allowed him to stay in the sink and didn't do unnecessary touching and holding. This made the experience so much easier for us as my cat was much calmer. I asked that she lay out the possible treatment options along with cost beforehand as I am a college student and on a budget she gladly did with great respect and understanding. This place is clean and even have a few "house" cats of their own that they have taken in. I know the Cheshire Cat Hospital truly wants my cat to get better and is not there for just the money and that is the first time I have felt that from a vet's office. I highly recommend Cheshire Cat Hospital! Read Less

First visit, now a life time customer - amazing. Had taken are Cat to other Vet's closer to home or work & have been disappointed with the service or Lack of care for our Little Family member. Everyone at Cheshire listened to our concerns & took notes - Actual Notes. From the Exam, Diagnoses & Treatment - quick. They even trimmed her nails. Our Cat had an immediate response to the Anti-Biotic & Anti-Inflammatory.  I am thrilled with our new extended Family Doctor. Thank You. Read Less

This was our first time to Cheshire cat clinic, bringing in our Munchkin cat for possible UTI. Front counter lady friendly, very personable, great attitude. The Veterinarian also very professional asking all the questions that needed to be asked. Did the test for UTI came back as a positive was given the medication and anti inflammatory shot for my Tiny pew cats comfort. My cat since we've been home is now back to her normal loving self, which is the complete opposite of where she has been. I am extremely impressed with this Cats only vet clinic and this is where we will be going from here on out. Read Less

I have been bringing my two kitties here for about two years now, and know they're in good hands with Dr. Masterson. About a year ago, she discovered a heart murmur in my boy kitty, Sid. She and Dr. Starcevich did a great job of explaining possible dangers and next steps for us. They are also great about filling prescription requests quickly. I have several visits ahead of me with Sid, but i'm so happy to bring him and Brody to a place where they're so well cared for. Read Less

I have been bringing my cats to Cheshire Cat Hospital for about 8 years now and am completely happy with their services. The Doctors and staff are super helpful and detailed. I love that it is quiet, there are no dogs barking (no dogs allowed) and the atmosphere is kept super chill. Read Less

I am so thankful to have found this cat clinic! Our vet here is phenomenal and has a true love for cats that you can see right away.The vet and staff are very friendly and helpful, I totally trust their judgement and feel safe to leave any of my 4 cats in Chesire's care.All of my cats have felt comfortable while visiting , and the vet was super gentle with all of them.If you're a cat guardian and are looking for a top notch clinic to care for your loved ones, this is it.Thank you Chesire cat clinic, I have been looking for you for years now, glad I finally found a vet I trust!

I couldn't have been more pleased with the care my cats receive at Cheshire cat. Many times I felt like general vets lacked knowledge and understanding of felines. The ladies at Cheshire love cats as much as I do,  and treat your little fur balls like members of your family, not just pets. I took my cats for annual checkups and dental cleanings. The day after each visit they always give me a quick call just to make sure that the kitties are feeling well and did not get adverse reactions to vaccines or anesthesia. I think the costs are quite reasonable. Dental cleanings run around $300-380, $52 for an exam, and $10-20 for vaccines. Read Less

This clinic is the best!. The doctors and staff are very knowledgeable and caring. I have 4 special needs cats and the doctors here have literally saved their lives on more than one occasion. One of the things I especially appreciate is that I am included in on treatment decision. They respect my knowledge of my own cats and we work as a team to meet their health needs. I have recommended this clinic to many friends and will continue to do so. Read Less

We are so grateful to have found Cheshire Cat. They are so caring, so considerate, and so respectful. With everything from neutering our kitten to helping us through the final moments with our 18-year-old, the staff and the doctors here have been outstanding. They explained everything so well. They even demonstrated some at-home procedures we would need to do for our cats in a manner we could truly understand. We also found their prices very reasonable--the meds were cheaper here than two other vets we used previously. Thank you, Mary and Dr. Nicole, for all you've done for us! Read Less

The entire Cheshire Cat family is the absolute BEST! Everyone from the Doctors to the vet techs to Mary at the front desk are so knowledgable and LOVING. I couldn't ask for a better place to care for my kitties who are family to me. I truly trust them and find comfort in knowing that anytime I have to leave my cats they couldn't be in better hands! Read Less

Cheshire is the best option for excellent care for your cat. We have been customers of Cheshire for several years and have always received excellent service. We have had annual checkups done, special needs like upper respiratory infections and recently an emergency involving an injured eye of one of our Bengals. They are great. Read Less

I've put off writing this review for a while because I really don't like writing bad reviews.  I moved to Colorado from Massachusetts last year and this was my first vet visit since living here.  I'll admit that my cat isn't too easy to deal with - she's super anxious and cranky, but this is a vet that's supposed to specialize in cats.  Anyway, I've taken my cat to the vet every single year of her life, with no major issues.  This time, as soon as they saw my cat's anxiety, they said they'd put her under anesthesia (for just a yearly physical). I know anesthesia doesn't come without risks but they didn't explain that to me, nor did they talk over the costs with me.  They whisked her out of the room to administer the anesthesia and give her physical, while I paced anxiously around the office.  They also mentioned doing some blood work (outside of the usual stuff) and didn't explain the details or costs of that either.  I will spend money on my cat, obviously.  That's my  responsibility as her owner (and servant).  I was not comfortable with the way they handled this there. I felt that any procedure out of the ordinary should have been discussed with me - the risks, benefits and costs. I went in expecting a normal $50-$75 visit and left paying around $200 - only finding out when I went to pay. Read Less

Cheshire Cat Hospital is the only place I would take my cats. I've been going there for the last 15 years, I wouldn't go anywhere else. Dr. Jill and her staff are warm. knowledgeable, supportive and they truly love and understand cats. It shows in everything they do. They provide top notch care, never "bully" you in to high priced tests your cat doesn't need, and they explain everything thoroughly. Their building is so cat friendly, lots of windows, toys, beds, you name it. I'm sure cats appreciate no dogs allowed, so they don't have that added stress. If you need a vet, Cheshire is where you should take your cat. You'll never get better care anywhere else! Read Less

If you don't take your cats to Cheshire Cat Hospital, then you're not giving your furry family member the best health care. It's just that simple!I have taken all my cats to Cheshire for the last 15 years. I wouldn't even consider taking them anywhere else (unless it's an emergency in the middle of the night of course!). Dr. Jill and her staff truly love and understand cats - it's obvious in everything they do; from the way they talk even to the angriest cat (probably one of mine) to handling them to boarding them. Many years ago I brought in my aging and sick kitty when it was "her time" to put her down. Dr. Jill came into the room and cried with me. It affected her almost as much as it affected me, and that meant more to me than I can express.Yes the cost may be a little high, but the treatment, the thoroughness and the care they provide is worth every penny! Mary, Becca and Chandler (and everyone else that I haven't learned your name yet) take every concern seriously, they are friendly and knowledgeable and go above and beyond for cats and their owners. If you have a cat, bring it to Cheshire for veterinary care. They are the best thing that ever happened to cats (after catnip of course)! Read Less

The Cheshire Cat Hospital is absolutely amazing. My 2 year old kitten got into my sewing thread and we just about lost her. They performed some very complicated surgery and monitored her day and night, keeping me informed of her progress. They let me visit with her as often as I wanted and wouldn't send her home until she was healthy enough that I wouldn't worry when she got home. The staff are the most amazing and caring individuals I have every met when it comes to my four legged feline friends. I only wish I could find a vet and staff that were that good with my dogs. I highly recommend them for the most routine to the most complicated care that your cat may require. Read Less

I am a HUGE fan of the Cheshire!I have 2 cats...one of which is diabetic.  When Foxy fell extremely ill while out of town for Christmas, I had to take her to a general veterinarian.  The instructions they gave me seemed a little odd, but I followed them hesitantly.  Once I got back to Denver, I called Cheshire and told them my situation.  They were ASTOUNDED at the instructions the vet gave me...and not in a good way.  I was able to bring Foxy in that following morning and they kept her all week.  Turns out, she was dehydrated, had a severe case of pancreatitis (which jacked up her blood sugar levels) and had a killer infection.The staff took fantastic care of her and I thank them for saving her life.  They even taught me to take and test her blood at home.  I love the fact that they specialize in felines only...which reassures me that my cats will get the best care possible!

I wasn't impressed with them the first time I went there...however, I had to go back and put one of my cats down...the vet was VERY KIND and understanding and sympathetic.   They helped make a horrible day a bit less horrible. Read Less

I have taken my cats to Cheshire since I moved to Broomfield in 1993 - They are the absolute best. Things have changed over the years from when I first visited their offices however I have found them compassionate each and every time. When I've had to visit another after-hours emergency office - they have promptly called the next day to check to make sure everything is alright or if a follow up visit is needed. Are they the cheapest? No - but I like that they only see Cats and that is their focus and expertise. I have recommended many of my friends to go here for routine and sick visits and will continue to do so. Read Less

They know about cats on a level that non-specialist vets don't.  When my mother-in-law's cat was sick, we took the cat to a Boulder general vet who told us that we'd have to have a ridiculously expensive procedure and that the cat would likely die anyway.  So instead, I suggested we go to Cheshire.  The vet knew exactly what the issue was and how to treat it, and it cost a fraction of the price that the other vet quoted us.  Kitty is happy and healthy now. Cheshire Cat also saved my cat's life when he had the "blocked Tom" syndrome.  They let me come in to see him frequently, and gave clear instructions on how to help him heal.  They are also friendly towards alternative health, though they are not "holistic vets."I live in Boulder now, but I still drive down to Arvada to take my kitties to Cheshire.   Oh, and the previous reviewer is right about the catnip.  That's *strong* stuff and they LOVE it.

I have taken my cats to Cheshire Cat Hospital for more than 10 years. I appreciate Dr. Jill and her staff for their deep expertise on cats and the little touches that make the cat more comfortable - like feeders outside the window so kitties have birds to watch while being weighed and examined. The map to the right is whack, by the way. Cheshire Cat Hospital is in a renovated house just north of 92nd Avenue on Old Wadsworth Boulevard. My cats don't mind going there. NO REALLY. It's such a cat-friendly place, with wide windowsills to sit on and toys to play with, no noisy dogs, and people who handle them gently and really understand feline health.I'm always a little startled at the bill, but health care is expensive no matter how small the patient. They give free new-kitten exams, which is nice - both my new kitties were shelter cats with various issues and critters on board. I recommend Cheshire Cat all the time to friends with felines.One warning: At Christmas, they send cards with catnip in them, and the cats can smell the stuff a mile away and will attack your incoming mail to get their fix. I have had important mail chewed and slobbered on in the process. Cats will never admit this, but under the influence of 'nip, they lose all dignity. Read Less

I was new there and thought it was going to be a good experience but my red flag should have been when i was not even able to talk to the doctor. THe 'manager' who i unfortuantly had to speak with often, who i guess was a nurse too?? was the most uncaring person i have met, and seemed to be bothered everytime on the phone or in person. Will look elsewhere Read Less

I would not recommend anyone use Cheshire Cat Hospital. In my opinion they are incompetent, and are too busy to provide effective follow up care. phone calls are not returned in a timely manner, or not at all. After using them for my sick cat for one week (And spending $500 in vet bills), they could not diagnose the reason for his illness. My cat finally got so ill he could not stand, so I brought him to another vet (On a Sunday since they are closed on Sunday) who diagnosed the probable cause in a few minutes. However by this time the cat was too far gone, started having massive seizures, and was put to sleep. Read Less
