Cream City Kitty Clinic

Dr. McDonald and the team at Cream City Kitty Clinic are truly exceptional. Scout, a stray kitten, showed up on our doorstep in Chicago severely injured, and we quickly discovered she had multiple pelvic fractures and a broken hind leg. We found a vet surgeon in Chicago to perform the surgery but needed to get Scout established with a vet for primary care. None of the vets we saw in Chicago could match the expertise and care she received from Dr. McDonald. Although the clinic is in Waukesha, WI, we gladly make the 1.5 hour drive from Chicago because Dr. McDonald is simply the best. Her depth of experience as a feline-only vet is unparalleled. Dr. McDonald has taken care of several generations of cats in our family, including those of my mother and late sister. She is the only vet we trust, and her dedication to their well-being gives us immense peace of mind. If you’re looking for a vet who truly understands and cares for cats, I can’t recommend Dr. McDonald and Cream City Kitty Clinic enough. Thank you, Dr. McDonald, for taking care of our rescue kitten Scout and for all the cats who’ve been fortunate enough to be under your care! 🐾

The vets here are knowledgeable. I gave 5 stars since they are experienced and know what they are doing. I would not describe them as compassionate. One thing to remember, I know you see a lot of cats in a given week and it seems to be the same thing daily to you. However, to a pet owner this is likely the first time experiencing this when this could be your 100th...please always remember this ❤️. There is also one particular lady who works at the desk who is not very nice. I am not sure if it's in malice but go where you don't have to work with people....seriously. The rest of the ladies are wonderful.

Rude vet tech,doctor doesn’t give any advice or information that’s helpful. Been a cat owner for 25 years. I know a good place to take my cats,and this is not it. Wish I could drive down to my old one in Chicago ( oh yeah, the doc made a rude comment about Chicago,under the guise of ‘joking.’ But Wisconsin hayseeds don’t have high brow humor so…🤷🏼‍♀️😆),but it’s not feasible. Unprofessional,and don’t seem like they actually care about animals very much. Also, heard the staff at the desk talking smack about a pet owner,after he left. Right in front of me. I should’ve walked out then.

If your cat is a pet this place is okay but if your cat is family maybe not. My cat had issues swallowing and breathing and I didn't get the impression the vet was at all concerned about it let alone listening to me that he was choking on his food. I repeatedly asked about his throat for the several visits he had over a couple months. The vet just kept pushing Science Diet food completely ignoring my concerns. Turns out he had a mass blocking his esophagus, I had to take him to the ER when he stopped eating completely to find that out and he was dead a week later. I'll be finding a different vet for my other cats.

They really spent some time with me and my cat; they didn't just rush me in and out. They looked at the past history that I brought in ad well. They have lots of nice cats hanging out in the lobby to greet you. Very knowledgeable and friendly doctor. It was a great experience and I will be taking my cats there from now in. 1 yr Distemper, 3 yr rabies and exam was $113
