About CatsOnly
We didn’t adapt a model. We built a new one.
CatsOnly exists because the standard of care that Cats receive has never been built around who Cats actually are. We are changing that.
Nearly 46 million U.S. households share their homes with cats, the most common pet in the country. And yet veterinary care, from how clinics are built to how visits are run, has been designed almost entirely around dogs.
The result: Cats who arrive already overwhelmed, get handled in ways that don’t suit them, and go home more distrustful of care than before. Cat Parents feel it too, and dread the visit just as much. CatsOnly was founded to build something different from the ground up: a complete care system, grounded in feline behavioral science and designed to strengthen the bond between Cats and the people who love them.
“We center the Cat in everything we do and design care and experience around the Cat and Cat Parent bond. We act with intention so every visit feels safe, kind, and clinically excellent.”
