Why Cats (and Cat Parents) Love Home Visits

Eve the vet with her cat
I’m Eve, a veterinary surgeon — and a cat mum to Beans and Toast. Even my own cats hate the vet trip. Toast won’t even go to the toilet at the clinic — he waits until he’s home, where he feels safe. I also believe great veterinary care should never feel rushed.

That’s why I started VetNearHome — so cats can get calm, unrushed, thorough care right where they’re happiest. We tailor every visit to your cat’s personality — shy hiders, lap-lovers, and every character in between.
