At Cat Hospital of Metairie, we provide a broad spectrum of feline-focused veterinary services and diagnostic procedures through in-house testing and the use of external laboratories. We also consult with local veterinary hospitals and specialists when additional diagnostics or treatments are warranted. Our facility includes a well-stocked pharmacy, an in-hospital surgery suite, in-house X-ray capabilities, a closely supervised hospitalization area, and indoor boarding kennels.
