Cat Care Clinic

Cat Care Clinic, founded in 1991 by Dr. Sue Swanson (DVM, University of Minnesota, 1988), provides holistic veterinary services for cats, dogs, and horses through house calls, telemedicine, and phone consultations. The practice integrates traditional Chinese medicine modalities—acupuncture, herbal medicine, and dietary therapy—alongside Western herbs, nutritional consulting, homeopathy, flower essences, and behavioral counseling, with chiropractic available by referral. Dr. Swanson's approach evaluates each animal's complete health context including diet, lifestyle, medical history, and emotional factors to develop individualized treatment plans. The clinic limits conventional Western medicine to vaccinations, laboratory testing, and pharmaceuticals when indicated, focusing instead on integrative therapies and offering referrals for surgery, dentistry, and other specialized care.
