The Cat Hospital — Local services in Northampton

Best place to bring your cats! The staff are friendly and helpful and Dr. Ricksgers is just great. She takes time to speak with you directly and answer your questions which is something you don't get at a lot of other places. I always feel like my cats are given the best care when I bring them. They're even great with my super fractious cat which is so wonderful as he has been treated poorly at other hospitals. Additionally, they always seem to fit me in if we have an emergency which is so appreciated. Hands down recommend this clinic! 2 years from my original review, I would like to add that 5 stars does not seem like enough. I recently had to make the difficult decision to let my previously fractious and aggressive 17 year old boy cross the rainbow bridge, and both the doctor and staff were great. I called and moved the appointment more than once and the staff that helped me were patient and understanding. On the day of the procedure, the staff ensured that we were the only clients present and created a peaceful atmosphere for my husband and I to say goodbye. My boy was given a cozy little bed to pass in, and I was allowed to hold him as he moved on. We were not at all rushed. The most touching aspect of this appointment was the emotion shared with us by Dr. Ricksgers herself. She even shed a few tears for my sweet boy, even though he was not the easiest to handle over the years. I know that she really cared about him and I will forever be grateful I have chosen this practice...

We moved to the area a few years ago, and our kitty transitioned from being an indoor city cat to a romp-through-the-yard country cat. We had to find a nice vet when she picked up a parasite (she's a good mouser/chipmunker, what can I say?), and heard nothing but great things about the Cat Hospital. They were all right. Absolutely the best vet experience I've ever had, and I've had pets my whole life. We walked in, Bear, the big black cat, came out and greeted Lula (who was not quite sure what to think of such a big friendly other animal). The staff was absolutely lovely, and Dr Whiskers is by far the most gentle, wonderful person. Explained everything very thoroughly, and was so kind with my little buddy. I'm SO happy we found these folks. I recommend them to anyone with a furry...

I cannot believe how lucky I got! I moved here from the West Coast just as my cat was being diagnosed with a chronic illness. The treatment is intense and I wasn’t hopeful about the prognosis. Dr Ricksgers is amazing. My cat’s one of those guys who gets super freaked out at the vet and is usually sedated. Dr Ricksgers has all these tricks up her sleeve for scared kitties. He had the whole exam without sedation and with no cratches or bites. She taught me how to treat his condition and has been really encouraging. The office’s hours are convenient and the cost is wicked reasonable. I can’t say enough good things about my all-time...
