Buffalo Feline Hospital

We offer thorough Comprehensive Physical Exams for your cat, evaluating all major organ systems, vital signs, behavior, appetite, and exercise habits during your visit. This exam serves as a critical baseline for ongoing health monitoring and early disease detection. Tailored recommendations for routine care and diagnostics may be provided based on your cat’s individual needs and concerns.

We provide Puppy & Kitten Wellness Packages, designed to support the critical health and developmental needs of young cats during their first year. Our packages include essential wellness exams, vaccinations (*Rabies, Distemper, Parvo*), deworming, flea & tick prevention, nail trimming, and dietary guidance. Our 2-, 3-, or surgery wellness plan packages also allow for bundling discounts to keep the costs manageable while prioritizing foundational care.

We administer Core Vaccinations including Rabies, Feline Distemper (FVRCP: Feline Rhinotracheitis/Calicivirus/Panleukopenia/Parvo), and Feline Leukemia (FeLV) following rigorous recommendations based on your cat’s lifestyle. Vaccines are a cornerstone of preventative care to safeguard against common infectious diseases. Our comprehensive vaccination protocols are customized during wellness visits to minimize stress for your cat.

While heartworm is less common in cats compared to dogs, we strongly advise Heartworm Testing & Prevention for all pets exposed to mosquitoes, or those sharing homes with infected dogs. Prevention includes monthly oral chewable pills or topical medications to ensure your cat’s health remains protected.

We provide Flea & Tick Prevention year-round through oral or topical treatments such as *Revolution*. As fleas and ticks persist across seasons, ongoing preventative care is crucial to protect against blood loss, allergies, anemia, and diseases like Lyme. A tailored plan aligns with your cat’s specific risk factors.

We offer Microchipping & Registration as a safeguard for lost or stolen cats. Our clinic uses the permanent *Res-Q microchip*, embedded through a quick and painless procedure. Registration is completed, ensuring any shelter or clinic scanning your microchip can swiftly reunite them with you.

As part of our kitten wellness programs and recommended annually, we provide Parasite Deworming (Intestinal) using treatments like *Pyrantel* or *Profender* (broad-spectrum dewormers). Indoor and outdoor cats benefit from routine screening and deworming to eliminate internal parasites, fostering long-term gastrointestinal health.

During wellness exams or prior to surgery, we offer In-House Bloodwork including CBC (complete blood count) and chemistry panels. These essential tests detect early-stage issues such as organ dysfunction, chronic illnesses, or blood disorders, enabling prompt intervention. Bloodwork is critical to determining overall health and anesthesia safety for older or high-risk patients.

Our clinic employs state-of-the-art Digital X-Rays (Radiography), providing instantaneous, high-resolution images with minimal radiation. Diagnostic imaging supports the evaluation of skeletal or organ abnormalities, such as bone fractures, foreign objects, heart or lung conditions, and gastrointestinal obstructions. Digital imaging enhances accuracy for rapid referral decisions.

We perform noninvasive Ultrasound Imaging to examine internal organs such as the liver, spleen, bladder, and heart. Preparing your cat requires only a shaved fur patch, and the ultrasound provides clear, real-time imaging for reproductive health assessments, organ function evaluation, and cancer screening. Reports assist your regular veterinarian in customizing a care plan.

As part of our dental services, we conduct Dental X-Rays to detect hidden issues below the gum line, such as root infections, fractured teeth, or retained roots. These radiographs guide treatment planning and address early-stage dental disease that may otherwise cause pain or systemic infection.

We offer routine Spay & Neuter Surgery for both kittens and adult cats, including pre- and post-surgical monitoring, IV fluids, and pain management. Surgical anesthesia protocols ensure safety while reducing complications, and advanced laser technology minimizes discomfort for faster recoveries. Cats are monitored closely to address any concerns during healing.

When hospitalization is required, we provide Hospitalization & 24-Hour Monitoring, including intravenous fluid therapy, oxygen support, and intensive care for critical conditions. Our skilled staff provides continuous observation, pain management, and diagnostic follow-ups, ensuring optimal recovery in a controlled, stress-minimized feline environment.

We offer Oxygen Therapy for cats requiring respiratory or cardiac support, such as post-surgical recovery or emergency treatment for conditions like feline asthma or pulmonary edema. Equipment includes precision oxygen cages or nasal tubes to ensure therapeutic levels while minimizing stress.

IV Fluid Therapy is administered in all surgical or acute medical cases to restore hydration, support kidney function, or deliver life-saving medications. We monitor fluid balance closely and adjust protocols for critically ill patients to ensure safety and efficient recovery.

We prioritize Pain Management, offering tailored strategies for pre-operative, intra-operative, and post-operative phases, including injectable pain relief, transdermal patches, and customized medication regimens to control discomfort. Specialized cat-safe medications are administered to ensure safe and effective healing.

Within new client visits or wellness exams, we provide Medical Grooming services such as safe nail trimming, anal gland expression, and sanitary shaves. These services alleviate common discomforts and prevent hygiene-related infections while minimizing stress in a calm, familiar environment.

Acupuncture, available through our affiliation with Wheatfield Animal Hospital, is offered for chronic pain, arthritis, and geriatric conditions. This therapy utilizes precise needle techniques to promote natural healing and pain relief, supported by personalized treatment plans determined by a licensed veterinary acupuncturist.

Our Cold Laser Therapy (MLS Therapy) accelerates wound healing, reduces pain, and decreases inflammation in conditions such as soft tissue injuries, postoperative recovery, chronic joint or arthritis pain, and back spasms. The non-invasive procedure requires no anesthesia and is typically completed in 3-8 minutes for each session.

During end-of-life care discussions or for geriatric patients, we conduct Quality of Life Assessments to evaluate your cat’s comfort, pain, and overall well-being. This structured approach helps guide decisions regarding palliative treatments, therapeutic interventions, or euthanasia options based on their individual health and emotional needs.

If requested, we facilitate At-Home Euthanasia Referrals to experienced mobile practitioners. This service provides a peaceful, familiar end-of-life experience in the comfort of your home, where our staff ensures seamless arrangements with compassionate partners.
