He is able to conduct a blood test in real time, even as you wait. The reason why we go is because the Vet does not feel like a large warehouse of animals. This is unique when it comes to CATS, sometimes he needs to tell us what we need to know.I could never be a vet, but i'm happy to know where to go. HERE read less

If you have a cat that requires attention, Jim and his practice is the only veterinary clinic that you should visit.The very local clinic at Beach Street in Frankston is where we used to go until we realised that all we were was a money maker for them.We decided to try Cat Lovers vet and were amazed at the way the clinic was run.Jim's priorities were focused on the health of your cat and not just the money.Walking into the clinic instantly felt different from every other clinic we've been in.It's true that the only thing that Jim does is cats and he does it not because it's a way to make money but because he is genuinely interested in the health of your cat.A very real cat whisperer.A friend had a cat who was unwell and we sent him to see Jim. He also used to see the vets at Beach Street. No surprise that he was shocked at the service received by Jim.If you have a cat that requires attention, Cat Lovers should be the only place that should be on your mind.Thanks Jim for your dedication to the sick cats of Melbourne. read less

I couldn't have faulted any of the staff on both visits. But on the day of having to put him down in the mix of all the emotional grief myself and my son went through. They spelt his name wrong or they didn't catch every letter I said. No ones fault really. But can I get the certificate done again is my question? read less

We highly recommend Cat Lovers to everyone and anyone who asks for the best vet around. We cannot speak highly enough of Cat Lovers. 🏆
I don't understand the negative comments. Everyone I know that takes their cats there cannot speak highly enough of them. Prices are excellent, Jim doesn't talk much but tells you what you need to know. He's extremely professional.

The whole family really appreciate your efforts to helping Leo make the best recovery possible.You put the human touch to a very difficult task.When Jeff and Helen recommended us to you it was like a gift that we will never forget as the best recommendation ever. read less

We went for our first visit today after a traumatic experience at our usual vet and were beyond impressed. Our cat recently got his annual vaccines at his usual vet and things didn’t go as well as usual. They were pretty rough on him and it ended up in everyone getting bit and him accidentally relieving himself on the exam table. To make things worse, most of our questions were brushed off and we felt like we got rushed out the door. It was time to look for a new vet.After many google/yelp searches, we found the Vet Set. I had already called a few places but wasn’t impressed and really wanted to make sure we got him the best care. I couldn’t believe they had so many five star reviews...it sounded too good to be true! When I called to schedule his appointment, I spoke to a woman on the phone who I believe was named Brianna or Bri. She was incredibly empathetic regarding our cat’s last visit and answered all of my questions without hesitation. She completely sold me on their office and ultimately is the reason we chose to come here first. Dr. Truitt’s bedside manner is impeccable as well!! My husband and I joked as we left that we wish she was practicing in human medicine because we would love to be her patients!! What a friendly doctor, which we aren’t really used to! At his usual doctor, we feel like a burden when we ask questions and sometimes get brushed off. As a pet owner, it’s great to leave with all questions answered. This is the first time we’ve left the vet feeling so great. She was incredibly patient with our scared cat and we didn’t feel like a bother. I asked all the questions I could think of and she answered every single one. We were never rushed, ignored, or dismissed. My husband couldn’t believe how patient Dr. Truitt was, and neither could I. We can’t wait to come back in a year for his next visit. read less

The vet was quite insistent.
I took him and left there in tears.
I brought him to Cat Lovers at the recommendation of longtime client.
I hadn't heard of them.
Cat Lovers specialise in cats only.
This tiny friendly place took me in the morning l rang and gave Merlin a caring examination and checked out his tests.
I was elated to be told "This cat is not ready to go!"
I took him home and 3 weeks later, he is still enjoying his meals and daily walks in the sun.
I'm just so grateful to have confidence in knowing l made the right decision, when under pressure.
I've made Cat Lovers our vet now.
When in doubt, ALWAYS get a second opinion.
Thankyou 🙏
*Merlin passed away 3 months later, in my arms at Cat Lovers.
A love filled 3 extra months that l wouldn't have missed for the world.

I take my Chocolate piont Birman there for a shave once a year and it is always a perfect cut, with no Knicks.

Booked him into the same vet for them to groom him and after waiting 6 weeks to get him in they cancelled at the last minute and couldn't refer me to anyone else. I hunted around and rang a private cat groomer who referred me to Catlovers. Couldn't have asked for a better outcome as managed to get him in within 2 weeks. Reception staff/nurses were so nice and although i thought my cat looked very weird with his lion clip he's a totally different cat! 13 years old and like a kitten again. He did have to be sedated and was strange for a day or 2 but after that he's been fantastic. Will definitely be taking him back there. read less

If there is emergency, he is never overbooked enough to reject the cat. And I do not know how can he keep his vet prices so low. His skills have been invaluable. I travel min 45 minutes to his cat clinic, and wouldnt go to any other vet in my area. read less
