One of our last interactions with Catlovers was a few months ago when our 14 month old kitten was bitten by a tiger snake (we have 5 cats and had been to Catlovers a few times while living in the area, but have since moved house).
In a panic we rushed him to the closest vet to our new place, who basically told us he had no chance and would have to be euthanised, but if we left him with them they would "try" to do their best and they would give us a call the following day! Our gut feelings told us to get the hell out of there and take him to Dr Jim (even though it was about an hour's drive away) and we did.
Needless to say, Dr Jim saved his little life and after taking him back for a few fluid top-ups/shots (and round-the-clock love from us) he's bouncing around these days like nothing bad happened!
We're so grateful to Dr Jim and his lovely staff and can't recommend him enough. Definitely worth the drive for their proper care and compassionate service. read lessYou couldn't ask for a more informative vet jim will tell you anything you want to know and knows what he is doing best for your cat wouldn't recommend anyone... read moreYou couldn't ask for a more informative vet jim will tell you anything you want to know and knows what he is doing best for your cat wouldn't recommend anyone else he has been wonderful with my cats highly recommend cat lovers even the staff are wonderful. read less

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

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

His experience means he can recognize and identify ailments without you having to pay $$$$ for unnecessary tests. If you are recommended to get a test then it's because he genuinely thinks you need one and not "let's do one to see" Very happy with the service here and I trust my Persians lives to him implicitly. And they also cater to dogs on specific days! 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.Definitely the best vet around. 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

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 lessJim and his team have excellent service.

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