Andrews Veterinary Clinic Review

Recently Dr. David Ackerman and his assistant came out to do a home check on our cats and to administer our annual rabies shots to cats that were due. We did 38 -3yr rabies shots this year (2014) and had him check any kitties that we thought might need checking. They really liked our set up and wrote us their annual review of our rescue.Check out their letter below.
Andrews Veterinary Hospital is a wonderful place. Dr. Ackerman has always done a wonderful job taking care of our cats and has done his best to keep costs down for us. All their staff is very professional.
I highly recommend them to anyone who has a pet.

Casey's Cats
RIP Casey you are missed.
This is a sweet letter a man wrote to us after we helped him with paying his vet bill for his little dog. We had overheard him talking to the lady at the desk and he seemed clearly upset that he was short on what he would owe to get his precious dogs teeth fixed. We pulled the lady aside and told them that whatever he was short we would pay it. In the end the vet waived most of the extra fees (he had a large portion of the bill) as we paid the remaining $26 he owed for medicine but didn't have. We were glad to help pay it forward. We never told him we did it and never expected anything. We quietly left hoping for the best for this man and his dog. You never know whose lives you might effect if you just pay attention and do what you can to make a difference. I thank God our rescue had the funds to do this through your kind donations. It wasn't much but it clearly meant a lot to this man. I wish everyone would take the time to help a stranger. What a wonderful world it would be!
Nice visitor Casey Costigan happened to see us and stopped by on her way home to TN and had a great time! She also rescues cats and rehomes them!
Here's just a few of the comments off Facebook after watching our video of our sanctuary.This is what keeps me going on bad days!
