How to Save Money at Cat Care Center
Schedule Regular Vet Visits
One of the best ways to save on vet bills is to prevent expensive health issues before they develop. By scheduling regular wellness checkups, your vet can detect health issues early, helping you to avoid costly treatments and surgeries down the road.
Price Shop for Pet Prescriptions
Oftentimes our fur babies are prescribed human drugs off-label. Your vet is apt to charge more for these medications than you would pay at your local pharmacy. In fact, big-box or chain pharmacies can offer steep discounts. So it’s best to price shop.
Pet Insurance
Most pet insurance providers will pay between 80% and 90% of the vet bill. You can even get coverage for routine care and things like vaccinations and dental cleanings. If you do the math, you’ll most likely find that pet insurance makes financial sense in the long run as well as gives you peace of mind.

Get Quotes & CompareGetting to Know Your New Vet: Essential Questions to Ask
Choosing a new veterinarian is an important decision for any pet owner. You want to find someone who is competent, compassionate, and a good fit for you and your fur baby. To help you get the most out of your first appointment, here's a list of essential questions to ask your new vet:
Tell me about your experience with [pet type].
Different vets have different areas of specialization. Some are experts with cats, some dogs, some pocket pets, and some horses. Knowing that your vet has vast experience treating your specific type of pet can bring you peace of mind.
How do you handle emergencies?
You must know what to do in case of a pet medical emergency. Inquire what after-hours policy the clinic has, whether they have on-site emergency care available, and if they have a relationship with any nearby emergency animal hospitals.
How do you communicate with pet owners?
Good communication is key to building a trusting relationship with your vet. Ask how they prefer to communicate (phone calls, emails, online portal) and how often you can expect to hear from them.
Are there any breed-specific health concerns I should be aware of?
Some breeds are predisposed to certain health conditions. Knowing what to watch out for can help you catch problems early and get your pet the treatment they need.
Do you have any questions for me about my pet?
This is a great question to ask because the answer will show that the vet is interested in getting to know your pet as an individual and is willing to listen to your concerns.
Bonus question: Can I take a tour of your facility?
Getting a feel for the clinic's environment can help you and your pet feel more comfortable during your visits. Remember, you’re not just looking for a veterinarian, you’re looking for a partnership. Do not be afraid to ask these questions and any others you can think of. Any vet worth their salt will be happy to answer them. Because the more informed you are, the better equipped you'll be to make decisions about your pet's care! And that should be every vet’s top priority.

Dr. Lacie is caring, and honest and has devoted most of her to life to stay current on the latest advances in cat medicine. She is able to make sense of complex medical issues to give our more fragile fur babies a fighting chance. She is also able to handle cats that other vets have labeled as “dangerous.” I feel absolutely confident in her abilities to diagnose and treat my cats. Also, her staff is always professional and courteous.

I’m so happy I found this vet!!! The last veterinarian told me to bath my cat and that salmon was bad for cats?? Yikes. But Lacie Lee is just goes absolutely above and beyond for my baby. Diagnosed her with gingivitis and put together a comprehensive plan to help her. Thank you so much😭💕🙏🏻💗😭💕 (=^ェ^=)

I don’t have enough words to describe how grateful I am for this amazing clinic and Dr.Lacie! Without this amazing team I wouldn’t have two of my fur babies with me today. During my most anxious times waiting to hear about results of surgeries or procedures, everyone was INCREDIBLE at keeping me updated with terms that I understood during a time where I was so stressed out. I know that everyone here genuinely cares for what is best for my pets as if they were their own!

I have never had a vet and staff treat my Bella as their own. Dr. Lacie and staff go above and beyond to make sure not only your precious fur baby is comfortable, but that u too are comfortable and completely understand every procedure, every step of the way. I wouldn’t trust any other clinic with my baby girl. They are the real deal. Clinic is beautifully appointed, state of the art equipment and quiet…no dogs barking…cats only! I love that!

After having to bring a couple of our cats here I realized there is no better vet than Dr. Lacie. She truly cares and takes her time to properly diagnose your cat the first time. We went two years somewheres else prior to CCC being told our kitten had hip dysplasia when in fact both knee caps were displaced from a birth defect. Dr. Lacie referred us to have surgery on her and now she is living a pain free life and getting stronger, healthier everyday. A BIG shout out to all the staff and especially Dr. Lacie for the “5 star” care your facility provided during her recovery period.
