How to Save Money at St. Louis Cat Clinic
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.

The StL Cat Clinic was the first vet to diagnose my cat, Jack White, with diabetes after years of health and behaviour struggles. That alone solidified my commitment to them. The care we received for the next several years through the end of his life was exceptional. I strongly believe it is because of the Cat Clinic that he lived to nearly 17 years, healthy and happy. In the end, age and the health issues became insurmountable. But he had a wonderful life thanks in no small part to the care we received with the St. Louis Cat Clinic.

Dr. White and my vet tech, Evan, have been so helpful to me and have helped me be informed through my cat's sickness. They offer everything they can to help and make sure you understand what's going on. They have been especially caring toward my cat Alfred and I am very appreciative of their care with him. The whole staff is very helpful and they have been quick to communicate with me when needed. Wonderful staff, great communication. I recommend them to people with cats in their family.

I wish I could give them 10 stars! Everyone there is amazing, from staff, tech and last but not least Dr Howard. I have never had such a passionate vet and so knowledgeable. She spend an hour and half doing the most detailed examination. She found out my cat has a genetic gum condition that kills cats teeth. My other "vet" didn't even bother to look my cats mouth. I am forever client to this clinic. Please take your cat here. They will receive more care than a generic vet. Their proces are very reasonable.

This was my first visit and I am so very happy I found Dr. Howard. She was thorough, positive, and so incredibly knowledgeable. She was patient, took the time to answer my questions, and I left there have a clear understanding of my pets medical needs. I would highly recommend St. Louis Cat Clinic to everyone with a Fur-Baby.

I booked an appointment for my cat Raphaelle some odd weeks ago to get his yearly check-up, vaccines, and a couple of other things. My appointment was scheduled for 4:30 PM. I arrived around 4:20 or so. Around 4:50 PM, a tech comes to speak to me and let's me know an appointment ran over and a different doctor would be seeing my pet. I thanked her for letting me know and told her no problem. It was our first visit, so I'm not attached to any particular doctor. Roughly five minutes later, the receptionist tells me both doctors are busy and I would be waiting an additional 20 minutes or they could re-book me for another time. I opted to not wait nor reschedule and just go to another vet clinic. I paid the required $20 deposit and requested a refund, to which the receptionist quickly obliged. The system they used charged me, the client, a fee of $1.00 and some change for the refund, so I ended up losing money on an appointment I showed up for on time and wouldn't be seen for. This is the most unprofessional veterinary experience I have ever had. What they don't know is, I used PTO to leave my job at a certain time, go home, pick Raphi up, and make it to his appointment on time. ON TIME. What I know is that you will lose your deposit if you don't call them to cancel within 24 hours. However, there is no remedy for the client who is on time and expected to wait 40 to 50 min for their scheduled appointment. The clinic is clean, nice, no smell, and the staff is friendly. The receptionist is wonderful, friendly, offered me a bottle of water when I came in, and was very apologetic when everything went down. The vet tech was friendly, kind, and explained to me what was going on. The non-veterinarian staff is top-notch. However, the veterinarian who came to the front while I was getting my refund, was none of those things. No apology, no hello, no nothing. As a matter of fact, she interrupted the receptionist who was processing my refund to ask if the receptionist sent records for another client's cat, and walked off. I'm highly disappointed in this experience. I would hope the owner of the clinic would be disappointed in it, too. I'm sure one of the vets owns this clinic and cares at least a little bit. If it was the veterinarian who ignored me, I'm sure she doesn't.
