Cat Nail Trimming

The majority of cats require regular nail trims. Otherwise, they are at risk of having their nails grow so long that they puncture and grow into their feet. To avoid this, we recommend nail trims every 8-12 weeks depending on the cat. Some cats also require grooming services. For this, we recommend bringing your cat to a groomer. In cases that the groomer is unable to handle the cat, we can discuss sedated grooming in the clinic, but this is only done as a last resort.

What grooming services does the clinic provide?


We offer nail trims to both dogs and cats. Some of our staff are comfortable offering grooming services. However, we are not groomers.
