    My sweet Romeo, in the oxygen enclosure with his IV for fluids
    Bethany S.

    Our sweet cat Romeo was suddenly sick. We rushed him in and Veterinary Emergency Group acted quickly and with so much compassion. They got him comfortable, ran tests and took such good care of my senior boy. Unfortunately, it was Romeo's time to go. The staff let us know in the kindest way. They gave us time and space to say goodbye and I will forever be grateful for that opportunity. As someone that's regularly involved in rescue and foster I'm far too familiar with loosing animals and I know that you're not always given the chance to hold, love and cuddle them when they pass. I couldn't have asked for a better place to be, in a quiet room, petting his soft fur as he moved on very peacefully. I'm heart broken but so very thankful for this clinic and the care and compassion they showed when my husband and I needed it the most. If you need Emergency care for your pet I whole heartedly recommend this Veterinary clinic. The clinic is a huge open space so you can stay with your baby the entire time. You can be with them through everything they need done. This alone makes this clinic so worth going to. I cannot possibly find enough words to describe how thankful I am for the wonderful staff here.

    The compassion and care that the team at VEG gave to my sweet Lucy, was over and above. I cannot say enough about how passionate these people are. Dr. Lee me through some very tough times. Knowing my Lucy had an aggressive form of cancer, and that she was beginning to suffer with her breathing, broke me down. But they loved on her and held my hand through the process. Three days later, they gave strength to my family and I , as we said goodbye to Lucy and the rainbow bridge. Thank you, Dr. Lee, and your wonderful staff.

    I cannot recommend this place enough! We brought our beloved hamster in on his last day to help put him out of his misery because he was and so much pain. These people didn't laugh at me about bringing in a hamster, they treated me so respectfully and lovingly! We were offered tissues and private room snacks coffee anything we wanted and they were so compassionate! I would never go anywhere else if I had to go through this again with my next pet. Every single one of them in there was beyond kind and loving and totally reassured us we were doing the right thing and helped us through every moment of it! And then to receive this card a week later I was just so amazingly perfect and brought tears to my eyes. God bless everyone of these workers!

    See all

I didn't know if it was just cotton or if part of the stick was lodged in her ear as well. I took her over to Blue Pearl and everyone was absolutely fantastic. I was in and out in less than an hour. The Vet successfully removed it in just a few minutes & thankfully, it was only cotton, no stick. I was afraid it was going to be hundreds of dollars for an emergency room visit on Thanksgiving but they were kind enough to only charge me for a tech visit, less than a hundred bucks! Awesome place, awesome people, and I can't recommend them enough. Thank you, blue pearl for helping me and my little girl!

They could not treat my cat humanely or examine her without doing MRI's Scans, etc, when I brought her in for not eating or drinking for 5 days and, before we left the facility they gave me two meds that had to be taken with food or water. I did not know this until I got home and read the directions. Hello? Cat was not eating or drinking. Why did Blue Pearl not tell me this before I left? Then we could have discussed alternatives. My cat was home euthanized a few days later by a private company, and the attending vet, after sedating her, was able to do a physical exam. Obviously Blue Pearl was not smart enough to do this. Instead, they wanted to perform many expensive tests. As a former Navy Nurse, I saw what was happening. Stay away from Blue Pearl!

    Wishing I did not have to write this review, but I do want to share my honest experience of our…read morerecent visit to Capital Vet Specialists. I called the clinic at 1:30am after we found our sweet girl so sick. It is a 24/7 ER and the first one that picked up their lines. They were upfront on costs from the start letting us know they it is 188 for the vet to evaluate here. We rushed to the hospital and as soon as we arrived they jumped into action. The nurse came charging out and carried my baby girl back. They immediately started doing what they could to help. Throughout the 18 hours my girl was in their care they exhibited clear, honest, and transparent communication. From the start, the gave us an estimate on what we could expect cost wise. I appreciated how they gave us the highest range, so we could get the worry of cost out of the way. They do this so that they don't need to keep calling asking if they can do x,y,z. Anything they don't need, they refund to you. When health tragedy is at hand, no one wants to be worried about cost and I think they have a great system for maintaining a clear process on payments. I want to give special thank you to the night Vet Dr. Izeman or Eisman ( i dont know the proper spelling). He showed us great empathy and compassion and treated my girl with the utmost care. I am heartbroken to share that we lost my bestfriend, but I do want to acknowledge that Dr. Izeman and his nurses gave us the the space we needed and helped us each step of the way. Although I hope you never need to, I would certainly recommend brining your fur babies here for any overnight emergency.

    Jacksonville Humane Society - Kitten adoption

    I've supported JHS for over a decade but finally had my first experience as an adopter with them,…read moreand it went wonderfully. My spouse and I decided we were ready to bring a cat into our home a couple years after our senior cat passed away, and we headed to JHS to start seeing if any cat felt like a match. The facility is beautiful and clearly designed to minimize stress as much as possible for the animals. The front desk employees were friendly and told us to look around, so we did. We wanted an adult cat, and we found that -- at least on this visit -- they were all in a special "citrus suite" that required accompaniment by a counselor since cats can be a bit spicy. It was about 30 minutes before closing at this point, but we were assured that we wouldn't be rushed out with closing and to take as much time with the cats and counselor as we wanted. Once our lovely counselor Charly was ready, she took us into the suite and started talking to us about the cats. She had detailed information about each and talked to us about what we were looking for, what our home was like, whether we had children or pets, and whether we had experience with cats. It felt very friendly but also like a good two-way evacuation (us of the cats and JHS of us), which I appreciated. One cat ended up showing interest in us pretty quickly, and we spent about 20 minutes with her. Spoiler alert: she's sitting on the couch with me now at home. Back to that day: we said we wanted to adopt her, and Charly got her into a travel box and had us wait for a few minutes at the front while she got paperwork together. She brought us our new family member and a big folder with important dates for follow-up vaccines, medical information, and even some coupons. Once we got home, they even sent us some more photos that had taken of our new cat during her time at the shelter, and the online tool they partner with was useful, too. It was definitely a great experience, and it reaffirmed my belief that the work of JHS is one of the best things about this city.

I offered these a**holes a deal, you rename the pet on the plan to my other cat and ill keep paying to end it amicably or i pay you nothing, cancel the card and, you can stick your "remaining balance" and the collection where the sun don't shine. They were unwilling, didn't care that their office traumatized my cat, and didn't care that the local clinic lied about what the "plan" really entailed.
