KITTEN CARE AT KINGSBROOK ANIMAL HOSPITAL

Welcoming a new kitten into your family is an exciting time, but it can also bring up many questions and concerns. During your kitten’s initial visit, we will not only perform a thorough physical examination and parasite screening, but also help you work through the maze of information available regarding litterbox training, nutrition, behavior and how to help your new kitten adjust to other pets and family members (and vice versa!).

Your kitten’s first exam will include:

A comprehensive physical examination
Vaccines customized for your kitten’s lifestyle
Intestinal parasite (worm) screening and prevention
External parasite (flea/tick) screening and prevention
Diet and nutritional counseling
Note: All initial kitten visits are schedule for twice the length of regular appointments (at no additional charge to you) in order to make sure that you and your new family member start out on the right paw together.

YOUR KITTEN’S FIRST VISIT

In preparation for your kitten’s first visit with us, it is helpful to bring the health information provided to you by the seller or shelter. This information should include a previous history of vaccines and deworming. We also ask that you bring a fresh stool sample, and bring your kitten in a secure carrier.

Everyone at Kingsbrook has been wonderful with our pets! They have immense patience with our huge, SUPER excited, black lab puppy. And the care they took when our cat passed away last year was amazing...though they had only met her a few times, they were visibly shaken by our loss. It was touching and helped make the transition a little bit easier for us!

Dr. Cook, the techs and front desk team are amazing..always! They are extremely thorough, they take their time and get and give every detail needed. The follow up is impeccable, they literally follow up just to see how my babies are feeling or if I have any questions. Dr. Cook does not pressure me to get a lot of testing or procedures.

I can not thank this office enough for all they had done for my dog, he was not scheduled to see them for another week, but due to an injury they got him in the same day. From calling in and speaking to Blake, who got me in in a promptly manner. Once there, Kayla was ever so kind and gracious to assist me with what needed to be done...keeping at a social distance, also to Julia who happen to handle the payment process quite seamlessly...

I cannot say enough about Kingsbrook and the entire staff! They take such great care of my fur babies and are always so friendly! You can tell they truly care about their patients. I know my dogs are in great hands, we are so happy we found them!

Receive 5 stars all the way. Excellent vet for all your pet care needs. I love the fact everyone takes their time to work with my dog and then thoroughly review everything with me. It's been a while since I've had a dog. Recently got one and knew exactly who i wanted his vet to be (Kingsbrook). Great job everyone!

Dr. Riley is fantastic as are the techs. I was a nervous dad taking Anna in for her first appointment for shots etc. but Dr. Riley did a phenomenal job with Anna, explained everything, engaged me in conversation and left me with a sense of calm. I cannot speak more highly of Dr. Riley and her staff!
