How to Save Money at Paris Hill Cat Hospital

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.

Getting 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.

I bring both my cats Mateo and Juice to Paris Hill and I have nothing but great things to say about them. They always can get me in (usually same week) and when I have something emergent they do their best to get me in same day. Mateo is 3 years, Juice is 8 months and they’re both sensitive boys so they’re seen often. I highly recommend Dr. Keegan. He is so sweet with the cats, takes his time to understand them and explains things easily.

All the staff at Paris Hill Cat Hospital are amazing, from the vets all the way down to the front desk staff! I have been taking my cats there since 2015 and I continue to come back even though I now live over an hour away. I have had appointments with all of the vets and I'm happy to see any of them because they are all great. I have had several of the techs and assistants as well and they have all been great. Their prices are reasonable and no one tries to up-sell you. They do not shame you for the missteps you make as a pet owner and are very compassionate in their care. I would recommend them 100%!

I was with Waterville for almost 20 years but watched them go downhill rapidly and after a final horrendous and traumatic experience I knew my cats would never return. So, on the advice of trusted friends I finally made the switch to Paris and it was the best decision I've made for my pets health. Our first visit was just yesterday and I was absolutely happy with every aspect. The vet was incredibly thorough, compassionate and knowledgeable. In just one visit I feel they (including the amazing front end staff) cared more for our cat than Waterville ever did.

I have used this facility for my cats for many years. The ownership changed and I had two very bad experiences a couple of years ago. I started going to Waterville. One of my cats needs her nether region to be shaved frequently. She has to take medicine that makes her overweight. Therefore she cannot clean herself properly and she has very long hair. Waterville quoted $350 for the shave. I decided to call around. I didn't know Paris Hill cat hospital had changed ownership again and moved. They quoted me $40 for the shave and $68 for an exam. The doctor was wonderful. He actually caught something concerning no one else has before and we have had our cat for 6 years and she had had this same problem for the whole time. After the exam, the doctor did the shave with the help of a tech. They allowed me to stay in the room the whole time. They were gentle and made sure my cat was never hurt or alarmed through the whole process. I will definitely be switching back to Paris Hill cat clinic!
