Hospice & Palliative Care for Cats
If your cat has a chronic illness or declining quality of life, our hospice and palliative care services focus on comfort and pain management in their final days. We work with you to:
✔ Assess quality of life and recognize when medical intervention may no longer be beneficial
✔ Provide pain relief and supportive care to keep your cat comfortable

If your cat is experiencing discomfort, difficulty moving, or a loss of appetite, we can help ensure they spend their remaining time in peace and dignity.
Gentle & Compassionate Cat Euthanasia
When a cat is suffering, and medical treatments are no longer providing relief, euthanasia is a final act of love that prevents further pain. Our veterinary team provides:

✔ Sedation beforehand to ensure comfort and relaxation
✔ Unrushed, compassionate support for you and your family
Your cat will be surrounded by love, care, and dignity as they peacefully cross the Rainbow Bridge.

After saying goodbye, deciding how to honor your cat’s memory is a deeply personal choice. We offer:
✔ Private or communal cat cremation with options for ashes returned
✔ Guidance on cat burial services for those who prefer a traditional resting place
✔ Memorial keepsakes & paw prints to cherish their legacy
We are here to walk you through all available options so you can make the best choice for your family.
Honoring Your Cat’s Memory
Grieving the loss of a pet is never easy, but there are many ways to celebrate the love and joy they brought into your life. Consider:
✔ Creating a photo album or memory book
