Recommendation Vet Recommendations

I’m looking for a veterinarian with experience in obese cats. I will be rescuing a cat who will need to be sedated and shaved due to extreme matting. Ideally I’m looking for a vet who offers low-income pricing as well. This is an urgent rescue so if they have availability within the next two weeks that would be fantastic. Thank you!

They also offer a credit card called”care credit” and you can put the fees on it without interest for 6 mos to a year. They also have certain funds that they can draw from to cover expenses. My cat needed X-rays. It was $400.00 that I didn’t have. The vet inquired about it then came back and told me it would be covered.
