hi everyone,

i'm adopting a kitty this week, and i was wondering if anyone can recommend a good vet in the davis sq or nearby area.

thanks!

Porter Square Vet. They're actually nearer to Davis Square; at the beginning of Summer, near the Rosebud, across from the Dilboy VFW Hall

Seconded! All my cats, past and present, have seen all the vets there at least once; they're all fantastic.

Dr. Leavey is my favourite.

Thirded!

And congratulations!

Check out [livejournal.com profile] yangelina asking the same question (http://www.livejournal.com/community/davis_square/196726.html) on October 20.

Thanks again for the tip

I really appreciated the staff at Porter Sq. Vet--they were professional and friendly. We ended up with Dr. Aaron Cohen and he's fantastic. Sadly, no good news for Goober, my cat--this morning we had to put him to sleep, after being diagnosed for FIP two weeks ago. But Dr. Cohen was wonderful with us and really made sure that Goober went well.
We will definitely stay with them when/if we get more cats in the future.

I saw a vet that'll visit your home, too.

We take our cat to Mill Brook Animal Clinic on Mass Ave in Arlington, and have been very happy there! :)

Everyone there is so nice, my cat even licked the vet after she gave her a rabies shot. :-) Really!

Also when my older cat died they were absolutely wonderful and even sent me a sympathy card later.

It doesn't even matter which vet you choose, they are all good as is the rest of the staff.
