Also, can anyone recommend a good cat vet on the north side of
Chicago? My old vet was North Avenue Animal Hospital, and I found this practice to be very incompetent (missing diagnosable illnesses several time in my cat-lead to an early death) Any advice would be great! Thanks! Here's two that I recomend: Chicago Cat Clinic 5301 West Devon Cat Hospital of Chicago 2851 West Irving Park These are both on the northwest side so City Cat Doctor, which is downtown on Wells, maybe closer for you. And I also recommend you ignore the flak you will get here for adopting a purebred cat. Aww, gee, Yngver. That would be me you're speaking of. Honestly, I don't mean to get so hydraulic. Kitten season will do that to you. But I'm very equal-opportunity with the flak. My grand-cat is purebred. Sherry |

Thanks for the vet recommendations! I have seen the one on Devin
mentioned before, and I have heard of the wone one Irving Park road but it has never been recommended before. Do you have firsthand experience with these places? Any specific doctors? Also, do you think that for cats it is generally a better idea to go to a cat doctor rather than an all small animal doc? Thanks so much for your help! BTW, I understand the reasons why people want to push adoptions. It is something I have definitely considered, and I have visited many centers, although I havent connected with any cats. I think it always something important to think about. I have also been kind of offended at some of the attitude I have recieved from some of the adoption coordinators. I must say,I am the ideal cat owner! I work at home, we dont have kids, I am good with the vet appts and very attentive. It has really been making me mad! These people are passing up some good prospects! |
