Cats are complex creatures. At Care Animal Clinic in Brookfield, WI, we offer veterinary care services that respect the unique biology, behavior, and health concerns of your feline companion. From subtle signs of pain to changes in appetite or litter box habits, we know how to read between the lines and we know how to help.
As a holistic veterinary clinic, we take the time to identify the
source
of any discomfort your cat may be experiencing, not just the symptoms. We aim to treat the whole cat, body, mind, and lifestyle, through integrative therapies, nutrition-based care, and gentle, informed handling that minimizes stress.
Local Veterinarians Who Knows Cats Don’t Always Show Pain
Cats are masters at hiding pain. That’s why our veterinary approach begins with observation, careful handling, and deep diagnostics. We don’t rush your visit or write off concerns as “just aging.” If something is off with your cat, we dig into the “why” and guide you through a solution that supports long-term comfort and wellness.
Our veterinarians brings decades of experience diagnosing subtle feline health problems, from early kidney disease to chronic joint pain and neurological issues.
Holistic Veterinary Care Services for Cats
Whether your cat is playful and healthy or withdrawn and uncomfortable, our veterinary hospital offers a range of cat-focused services designed to improve quality of life and minimize invasive treatments.
Feline Acupuncture and Herbal Support
Our veterinary clinic offers acupuncture and herbal therapies as part of our integrative approach to wellness. These treatments are ideal for cats experiencing chronic illness, GI issues, neurological conditions, or stress-related behaviors.
Laser Therapy, Massage and Vibration Therapy for Cats
For cats experiencing arthritis, soft tissue injury, or general inflammation, we offer low-stress laser treatments and massage therapy to ease discomfort and promote healing. Vibration therapy is also available for certain conditions, helping boost circulation and reduce stiffness.
Pain Identification and Mobility Support
Cats rarely limp or vocalize when in pain. Instead, they may become withdrawn, irritable, or avoid jumping. We identifying hidden pain through targeted exams and palpation techniques. Once we locate the source, such as a nerve, spine, or joint issue, we create a care plan that’s as gentle as it is effective.
Nutrition and Food Therapy for Cats
What your cat eats matters, especially when managing health conditions like diabetes, IBD, or urinary tract issues. We’ll evaluate your cat’s diet and guide you toward a food therapy plan that supports their system and reduces inflammation. There are also new diabetic medications and nutrition protocols for cats we can discuss that are changing the way feline diabetes is managed.
Behavioral Shifts That Indicate Deeper Problems
If your cat has become withdrawn, aggressive, or is urinating outside the litter box, we evaluate for underlying pain or discomfort. Many behavior changes stem from physical issues, and once we identify the problem, we can often reverse it with targeted care.
