Cat Allergy Doesn't Have to Mean Giving Up Kitty

Many of my clients are allergic to cats to varying degrees, but it's important to know that allergy to cats does NOT mean you have to give them up. This recent article in HealthDay discusses the problem and how many cat owners cope.

For years I have been recommending that my clients get a copy of the National Allergy Supply catalog, and now I have a link to their website (since paper catalogs are so passe). They have a very helpful air cleaner comparison chart here.

About Cat's Meow Veterinary Clinic

Cat's Meow Veterinary Clinic opened as the San Fernando Valley's first FELINE-EXCLUSIVE practice in 1991. For the safety and comfort of our feline patients, we are a DOG-FREE environment, so please keep the pups at home.

We are located at 19909 Ventura Blvd in Woodland Hills, CA, three blocks east of Winnetka Ave on the north side of the street.

Phone: 818-346-7161

Office hours are 8 AM - 6 PM Monday - Friday and 8 AM - 1 PM Saturday. Please call to schedule an appointment. We are a one doctor practice so our ability to accommodate walk-ins is limited. Cat's Meow Veterinary Clinic is closed on major holidays.

After-hours emergency care is available at ACCESS Critical Care, 20051 Ventura Blvd (NE corner of Ventura and Winnetka) in Woodland Hills - 818-887-2262
