I cannot recommend this vet highly enough. 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

Jim is amazing. I don't know what we'd have done if not for him and the loving staff at Cat Lover's. Our sweet boy Wookie was in serious trouble and Jim worked tirelessly over the weekend to save his life. The fact that he specialises in just cats is a beautiful thing. I honestly would not trust my cats with anyone else now!

I had the pleasure of meeting Jim when he was at Croydon and followed him to Frankston when he moved there. I now live in Gippsland, and whilst the local vet is fine for vaccinations etc, I will definitely take my fur babies to Jim if I think it is more serious. He is so good. I remember years ago taking my very sick cat to him one evening when he was at Croydon. He needed to be put to sleep, so you can imagine how upset I was. When I got there, Jim had guests but I was told that "cats are more important than anything". I will never forget that. Such a caring, wonderful person.

Cat Lovers Frankston is the best vet clinic i have ever been to anywhere!

The young lady on reception was very nicely presented had great customer service and was very organised and informed!
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!

Extremely skilled and caring vet, the staff are all wonderful and extremely caring. Our cat Charlie would not be alive today when he had his leg, tail and pelvis fractured after he was hit by a car. My family will always be very grateful to Jim and all the staff at Catlovers Vet Clinic for saving Charlie's life and his leg. Very reasonable fees and the best and most experienced care you can get for your pet!

Jim is an incredible vet. He specializes in cats and it shows. He has been spot on with his diagnosis, often identifying things over the phone that other vets did not pickup even after physical examination. He has been right with every diagnosis so far. His website ( http://www.catloversvet.com.au ) shows his location. Its a bit tricky to get to.

DE sexed all 4 of my cats, even 1 who was a stray and very feral, they were able to catch her when she escaped from her cage after I left and desex her while I was there waiting.

I took my cat here when we couldnt get into our usual vet and I wasworried about her not eating, the vet here was very thoughough, explaining everything to me along the way and made us comfortable during the exam. we would definately go back!

Excellent vet, specialist in cats. Wouldn't take my cat anywhere else as the service here is fantastic. Such a small place with such a lot of clients, shows how good they are as they have been there for years!
