Welcome to ZenCat

Thank goodness for Dr. Phoenix and ZenCat vet! Taking our older cat (18 years!) to the vet has always been a stressful nightmare ... but not anymore! Dr. Phoenix examined and treated our cat in the comfort of our home, and the experience was much less stressful for everyone. Our cat used to "punish" us after each visit to the vet, but now she is back to her lazy, happy self once the in-home exam is over. 

Dr. Phoenix is a pleasure to work with. We really appreciate that she can communicate about our cat's health in a way we can understand. She has helped us with a range of concerns for our cat including finding healthier food options, alleviating arthritis pain, and managing long-term kidney issues.

We won't be putting off vet visits now that we have ZenCat vet!

 I was concerned that a visit to the vet would be too much for our 17-year-old, anxiety ridden cat, so the mobile option was a godsend!  I am always conscious of cost and  was amazed that the service was comparable in price, and in some respects less expensive, than a traditional vet visit.  The cost and convenience alone would call for five stars, but I need to add another five stars for Dr. Phoenix.  She is knowledgeable, professional, and she provided valuable information that allowed us to make informed decisions about our cat's diet, health regimen, and psychological foibles.  A follow up email restated all we had discussed and provided links  to various helpful sites.  My cat demands that I add another 5 stars for Dr. Phoenix's gentleness and cat-pleasing personality.  Kitty has taken a few bites out of vets during her many years of visits to vet offices, but she had nothing but purrs for Dr. Phoenix.  FIFTEEN STAR REVIEW!

 I'm a new mommy with a small baby and an old cat!  Such a huge convenience to have found a mobile vet.  I mean, it's hard enough getting my cat to the vet, but with a baby in tow, it's impossible.  

I can't recommend Dr. Phoenix enough - she's a cat expert. Dr. Phoenix came to my home to do a physical on my 12-year-old fur baby, Moxie.  I've been worried about her lately as since my son was born I haven't given her much attention and she's developed some bad behaviors.  Dr. Phoenix brought all the equipment with her and she did a full examination in my living room.  Dr. Phoenix was patient, professional and Moxie was a lot more calm than she would have been if I'd brought her to a clinic.  

During the visit Dr. Phoenix addressed all my concerns and gave me practical advice how to help Moxie adjust to the new baby.  

We have future appointments already scheduled so Moxie will get all her shots when needed.

100% recommend Zencatvet! Dr. Watt is awesome, she was so gentle and patient with my cat Suni.  It's by far the best experience I have had with any cat and the vet. To have your vet come to you in your own home removes the anxiety of a car ride, waiting room, etc.  The last few trips to the vet were horror stories, and this visit with Dr. Watt was a complete turnaround.  Suni was relaxed and calm.  Dr. Watt is professional and it's obvious she cares deeply about her patients. We are never going back to the vet again!  We are committed to the positive experience of Zencatvet and Dr. Watt.

I've known Phoenix for years and now her dream has come true of becoming a vet. She's the kind of vet you want, caring compassionate and honest. She specializes in cats, but my dog Apollo loves her so don't hesitate to call her if you have dogs!!!
