I’ve always used the same vet for many years but two years ago I began a small community and feral cat rescue. I recently used Critter Care for a young colony cat that had been hit by someone speeding through a neighborhood.

Dr. Portugal is dedicated and caring. She performed emergency surgery on our cat and saved his life. Then she did the same for another of our cats. The staff is wonderful. Hands down the best, no contest.

Dr. Lori has treated our pets for close to 30 years now ! She is like a part of the family to us and treats our pets like they are part of hers! We would not trust anyone else with the care of our pets.
