Let's set the stage a bit. I've got a domestic medium hair cat that's five years old. She is a strictly indoor cat and she's been with me since she was about two weeks old. That being said... although she's not a fat cat, there became a point where we could not groom her ourselves anymore. Add that to the fact that we are not from Louisville, it was convenient to have a location where we could not only leave her while on our trips home but also get to a veterinarian in case of any type of issue while we were gone. Ill be honest --- this location was not the first vet or even lodge that I looked into when we were looking for a vet or preparing for our first trip. HOWEVER.....I am so l glad we finally landed here.Grooming Services --Lilly (the cat) is not accustomed to other people and does not behave well when she is exposed to other people or not in the home. Now if you come by the house and visit, she'll come let you pet her, smell you, and keep doing what cats do, but the groomer is a whole other beast. Add to that the trauma of getting a bath, your nails cut, ears cleaned, teeth...blah blah. You get the point! So, I wasn't surprised when the first time she went for grooming they told me she's not the easiest to manage. Nevertheless, they completed the grooming and had my furr-baby back to me in tiptop form. Marina (the groomer) personally took the time to speak with me and talk about her behavior, what made her most anxious, and what I could do to help calm her before arriving the day of services. While it hasn't been easy on them, they continue to work with me and Lilly to ensure she is properly groomed and healthy.Veterinary Services --In the few years we've been here we have had to visit the vet for her yearly vaccines as well as for one issues that concerned me and needed to be checked out immediately. A quick call to the office and they were actually able to fit me in that day. The vet was timely (we weren't anxiously waiting in the front room too long) and she also tried to console Lilly because she could see that she was not feeling well and uncomfortable. She prescribed medication for my furr-baby that I administered two times a day, provided explicit directions on how to give her the medicine, and also personally called me in a few days to see how she was doing. Yes...she called me. Not a receptionist or any other staff - the vet called me directly!!! I'm not sure what other things people look for in a vet, but I have not one complaint.Lodging Services: Bed n Bisket --Last but not least, I have uses their lodging services for both short and long trips. They are great with Lilly even though she's not so great with them. They also have a separate cat condo area that gives her a little room to stretch her legs. They've also always allowed me to call and check in as many times as possible and have called me abroad with any issues.I really don't want for anything. Appreciate all they do! Read Less
