Feline-Friendly Clinic for Meriden and Wallingford Cat Owners
Cats are commonly thought of as needing less veterinary care than dogs. While they may be more independent by nature, their health care requires as much diligence as their canine counterparts.
At Meriden and Wallingford Veterinary Associates, we pride ourselves on the level of care we administer to our feline patients. Since opening our doors in 1971, we have provided our doctors and staff with ongoing training on the various medical needs of cats. We believe it's our equitable dedication to both felines and canines that sets us apart from other clinics.
No matter if your pet is a kitten, an adult, or senior cat, there is a general course of action appropriate for his or her optimal wellness.
For kittens:
- Comprehensive physical exams
- Core vaccinations
- De-worming
- Viral testing (leukemia and feline AIDS)
- Spay/neuter
- Monthly prevention for fleas and other parasites
For adult cats:
- Comprehensive physical exams
- Appropriate vaccinations
- Dental cleaning
- Closer monitoring for diabetes, kidney and urinary tract diseases, parasites, and fleas
- Monthly prevention for fleas and other parasites
For senior cats:

- Appropriate vaccinations
- Dental cleaning
- Closer monitoring for the aforementioned issues, as well as obesity, heart disease, and dental disease
- Monthly prevention for fleas and other parasites
While the above courses of action serve as general guidelines for your cat's wellness and care, it's important to note that every cat is unique and requires a plan specific to his or her lifestyle and needs.
