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

Five years on I still thank my lucky stars she sent me to Catlovers.
I trust Jim 100%.He has both uncanny instinct and experience when it comes to diagnosis and offers a range of treatment outcomes to support both your pet and yourself.
I can only say amazing things about every aspect of the service here and the empathetic staff. read lessVery much a fan of this vet clinic.Jim is a very down to earth vet who doesn't mess around.His experience means he can recognize and identify ailments without you having... read moreVery much a fan of this vet clinic.Jim is a very down to earth vet who doesn't mess around.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 "just in case"Very happy with the service here read less

The vet was excellent with my cats! I only had pet carriers for my 2 older cats and the kitten escaped the cardboard box i had her in and knocked everything everywhere, Without a second thought the vet grabbed a pet carrier in perfect condition he had out the back, put her inside and told me i can have it free of charge! I mean WOW how amazingly kind! My (desexed) male adult cat is very skittish and usually doesnt let anyone touch him except me, I think because he was scared he pee'd all inside his pet carrier, when the vet was taking him out of the carrier pee went all over the place, I felt so bad but the vet was professional in dealing with this, quickly cleaning away all the pee and offering me a place to wash my hands and joking about sometimes getting a "Trifecta" Pee, Poo and vomit! hahaha Vet visits are usually something i fear because of the price and i often end up paying alot more than quoted! Not at Cat Lovers Frankston! The Quoted price was much cheaper than the other vets in the area and i didnt pay one cent more than i was quoted, Less actually! I could not fault this vet clinic in any way was a very pleasant experience and i will be a returning customer from now onwards! Cant recommend them enough! Thank you so much Cat Lovers Frankston! read less

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 less

He does a magnificent job in desexing my kittens, and my husband -who is a vet himself- is very impressed with his work, especially on female kittens. His incisions are tiny and the kittens are back up very quickly. I never had any wound infections either. Jim is always happy to share his knowledge and give advice. On top of that his fees are very!! reasonable. I can recommend him to any cat owner and breeder. read less

My darling boy had been in pain with a second bout of pancreatitis and was recovering only to go downhill quickly again.He’d been in the vet hospital in Mornington two weeks ago where they’d done countless scans blood work and tests, nothing showed up other than an inflamed pancreas and liver, he was given pain relief and my vet supported the diagnosis when I took him for follow up appointments.I knew it was odd for him to go downhill so quickly and so soon again after almost recovering fully and by the fate of the universe my vet was unavailable so I went to cat lovers who had been recommended to me. In no time, the vet had noticed the bloodwork that had been done showed signs of cancer which wasn’t picked up by the Mornington hospital vets or my usual vet in main ridge. The vet knew to check for tumours and unfortunately found a tumour on my boys pancreas and multiple tumours elsewhere which were again not picked up in previous scans by the hospital or my vet. Unfortunately, there was nothing else I could do as he had cancer and tumours and was in pain. He is an older cat, and it was just his time to go 😭The vet and the vet nurses couldn’t have been more compassionate or kind. They supported me, reassured me I was doing the right thing and gave me as much time as I needed to say goodbye to the light of my life and my constant companion for many years. They understood how much he meant to me.To top it off, they made prints of my baby’s paws and nose, gave me a vial of his hair and didn’t charge me a cent.I’m so glad my vet wasn’t available today because this could have drawn out longer with my baby in pain and stress, I thank god I went to cat lovers because I now have answers and know I did the right thing by my boy. The vet was so experienced and professional and found answers to his condition that the hospital and my vet couldn’t find over weeks in a matter of minutes.Thank you cat lovers for making such a horrible experience and such an awful time that much more bearable and for honouring and caring for my boy. I’ll be forever grateful 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 🙏 read less
