After taking one of my 19 cats to the emergency pet clinic on Durango St and having them tell me my cat has FIP (feline infectious peritinitis), there's no cure & there's nothing they can or will do, I set out to do something ... anything! I just wasn't ready to lose my sweet Tater Bug! That's when someone mentioned the Tacoma Cat Hospital (I had forgotten all about it in my "upsetness"). What a great place! As I stood there bawling, asking him to perform a miracle and save my kitty, he not only calmed my cat but me as well! Dr. Smith and his staff are so very kind and considerate and understanding! What a great team his nurse and he make. He & his staff explain things thoroughly, yet simply enough making it easy to understand (especially when you're a bawling basketcase like I was). The compassion they all show is unmearsureable. He was willing to go that extra mile for my sweet Tater Bug, giving me almost 4 more cherished weeks with him and for that I will be forever grateful.
