With Dexter being 12 years old, trusting someone with his surgery was not something I took lightly. Dr. Effie went above and beyond with his care and It was clear that he was in the best possible hands.
She truly stands out from any vet I have ever encountered. She is thorough, patient, compassionate, and genuinely invested in the animals she treats..
I’m incredibly grateful for the quality of care she gave Dexter. Thank you for treating him with the same care and attention you would treat own. I will never be able to thank you enough

How can you reduce cat shedding?
Most shedding is normal, and a few simple habits can cut down on the fur around your home and help keep your cat’s skin and coat healthy.
1️⃣ Support a healthy coat. A balanced diet and plenty of fresh water help your cat grow strong fur and keep their skin healthy, which can mean less loose hair.
2️⃣ Brush regularly. Brushing on a set schedule pulls out loose fur before it lands on your couch. It also reduces hairballs and gives you a chance to bond with your cat.
3️⃣ Watch for changes. When is cat shedding a concern? If you notice bald patches, constant itching, or red or irritated skin, talk to your veterinarian. These can signal allergies, parasites, or other health problems.

How do you stop a cat from scratching the carpet? Redirect the scratching; don’t punish it. Scratching is natural: it keeps claws healthy, marks territory, and stretches muscles.
– Offer a better place to scratch. Put sturdy sisal posts or cardboard scratchers right next to your cat’s favorite carpet spots. Choose a post that’s stable and tall enough for a full stretch.
– Protect problem areas. Doorways, rugs, and carpet edges are common targets. Cover them with secure mats, carpet protectors, or double-sided tape.
– Reward good scratching habits. When your cat starts on the carpet, gently guide them to a scratcher. Reward them right away with treats or praise.
Is the scratching new, excessive, or not stopping even with consistent training? Talk to your local CityVet veterinarian! It can sometimes point to stress, anxiety, or another underlying issue.
