Bluegrass Veterinary Specialists and Animal Emergency

They saved my boy Apollo’s life!! After a week of rapid decline, 2 visits to our regular vet, and one overnight stay at Metro in Louisville we continued to be sent home with no answers and “let’s just wait and see if he gets better.” Made a snap decision to go to Bluegrass one night around midnight and I’m so thankful we did. They admitted him and were able to give a diagnosis that same night. I was so relieved to finally at least have an answer, even if the diagnosis wasn’t great. He stayed for a few nights for the supportive care he needed and I went to pick him up and he was a whole new cat!! We’ve been home with him for almost 3 weeks now and he’s doing amazing, (and he looks adorable with his fur boots). I don’t know what would’ve happened if we hadn’t gone to the right place at the right time but I’m so glad we did. The staff is extremely knowledgeable and kind. I will recommend Bluegrass to anyone looking for the best care for their babies.

Words aren't good enough to express my appreciation for everyone who works at this clinic! My son and I brought in our precious little girl April on Sunday September 1, 2024. The care she received was so wonderful. The doctors explained everything to us in a professional and personable way. I appreciate you all for the great care and love and understanding and sensitivity with which you took care of our little girl. She was the perfect dog for my entire family!! You helped us to make the horribly painful but necessary decision to make sure she didn't suffer. Thank you for ALL you did!! I very highly recommend this clinic to anyone who has a pet emergency!! They will treat your pet with love and care and give the best care possible in any situation!!

My experience with this business was EXCELLENT. We brought my elderly cat in, she was immediately taken back, and I was barely through the paperwork when the vet came to talk to us. My cat had passed away before they could do anything further, but the staff handled it very professionally and empathetically. We were taken back to a room and had as much time as we wanted with my cat, and they wrapped her up so sweetly in a blanket and pet bed, so it just looked like she was asleep. After that, we were given the options for cremation, which were explained in a lot of detail and very gently. Overall, I'm very glad this is where we took Callie to be taken care of, even if she couldn't receive the full care they could provide. Thank you for treating my sweet girl like a part of our family.

I took my rabbit here with GI stasis and drove over an hour. As soon as walked in, they remembered from when I called and got her right back. I knew going into this it would be expensive, but I was not judged at all for turning down the more aggressive treatment as I could not afford it. I saw Dr. Whitney Jones and she quickly formulated a different outpatient care plan to give my bunny the best chance. With the medicine she was given at the vet and the medicine we were sent home with, my bunny is back to her old self and doing well! They have even called to check on her. I appreciate the girls at the front desk and Dr. Jones for being thorough and considerate.
