How to Save on Veterinary Costs at NOVA Cat Clinic
Preventive care
Routine wellness exams can help identify health issues early, often before they become more serious or expensive to treat. Regular checkups are one of the most effective ways to manage long term veterinary costs.
Compare prescription pricing
Some pet medications prescribed at veterinary clinics may also be available through local or online pharmacies. It can be helpful to compare pricing when appropriate to reduce ongoing medication costs.
Consider pet insurance
Pet insurance may help cover a portion of eligible veterinary expenses depending on the plan, including accidents, illnesses, and in some cases preventive care. Coverage details, reimbursement levels, and deductibles vary by provider.

I chose nova cat clinic because they were the only veterinarian practice in the area that specialize in cats, but what does that matter when an emergency occurs and they don’t help? I fully understand that this is not an emergency vet, and when my cat was in need, on a weekend, I took them to the emergency vet. However, first thing Monday morning nova cat clinic was not there to assist me. The emergency vet was able to stabilize my cat until Monday when more non-emergent options were available. Well NOVA Cat Clinic did not do anything I would expect as a “patient” experiencing an urgent medical need. They “took a message” didn’t get back to me in a timely manner and responded with a note that was not reflective of my needs. They expressed zero concern for my cat and provided no assistance, guidance or support. Don’t buy into the “cat only” pitch. Find a practice that is there for you when things are good and that can help in a difficult time. I have requested copies of my records and do not plan on returning.

Great people, Great prices, Great care. I'll be coming back! I've had my cat Rosie for almost 6 years and historically the vet has terrified her. She usually self-isolates for about 12 hours once we get home after an appointment. Not today! Dr. Torres was very kind and efficient with Rosie's examination and patiently answered all of my questions. I think the lack of dogs barking also helped Rosie stay calm. She's back to walking on my keyboard and being a nuisance immediately after our appointment instead of hiding for the day. :) Thank you Nova Cat Clinic!

Horrible communication. People don't respond to emails, don't pick up the phone. When they do decide to get off their butts to respond, they blame potential clients for the lack of communication, claim the they contacted you multiple times, left messages, etc and will go so far as to tell you to go to another clinic! Clearly they don't want or need the business. Will gladly be contacting my hospital to take care of my cat's needs.

I love NOVA cat clinic, the staff is wonderful. The service is great; the doctors and techs explain everything, and Sigmund is treated well. He dislikes all strangers, so he probably doesn’t notice a difference from other vets, but I do!

Nova Cat Clinic is the best experience at a vet both my cat and I have ever had! My cat, Hobbit, gets very stressed when she goes to the vet and normally we won’t be seen or she has to get a shot so they wrap her in a towel and send us home... At Nova Cat Clinic they were so patient with her and let her kind of do things when she was ready.. It was the first time we were in a lobby and she wasn’t loudly meowing/crying. Nova Cat Clinic is now m #1 place to go and will be my #1 place to recommend!!!! Thank you Nova Cat Clinic for helping Hobbit and I! We greatly appreciate it!!!!!
