The Boston Cat Hospital

Do not bother calling to set up any appointments if you don’t have medical history. It’s ludicrous they won’t take a cat and try to force you to conjure up medical history that simply cannot be provided. Not worth the headache or hassle when all you need is a darn vet.

Very happy to have found Dr. Widman and this cat hospital in JP after we moved back from the West Coast. They were knowledgeable about the issues my cat has, caring towards our cat and also had low prices (for Boston) and excellent availability (able to see our cat the day we called for an appointment). Glad we found a vet for our cat!

My cat Marcel had an abscess; I called first thing on a Wednesday morning and the staff at the Boston Cat Hospital made him an appointment for that day – even though he was a new patient. The care that Marcel received was truly phenomenal. He ended up needing to have anesthesia to get the abscess drained, and Dr. Widman went above and beyond to fit Marcel into her schedule for the day. The staff here is knowledgeable, honest, kind, and patient. I would highly recommend this vet!

Dr. Widman is the absolute best. She has been our cats’ vet for over three years. She is caring, professional, and understanding. Her vast experience was evident when she quickly diagnosed and treated two of our cats for special conditions. She is excellent at returning phone calls, and does not rush through the conversation, truly answering any and all questions. Office staff is friendly. Free parking available in hospital lot. With Saturday hours, you simply cannot go wrong!

Dr. Levine and team are great. We have been taking our cat to see Dr. Levine since we moved to Boston in 2010. We started going there becuase they were close to our apartment in Allston at their old location (near fenway) and have had no regrets. Other than that they moved to JP! We still go there even though we have to get a Zipcar to get there! Dr. Levine is so great with our cat Q-​Tip, very patient and kind. We have never had a problem. We highly recommend them!

Professional, kind, thorough. Excellent diagnosticians. Ethical, thoughtful. They will talk to you on the phone at length when you have problems or questions, and listen to your theories and concerns authentically and respectfully. I highly highly recommend them.

Wow, Julie D., what a coincidence ! I came here to write a positive review of the receptionists at the Boston Cat Hospital since they are so sweet and super helpful when I stop in to get my boyfriend’s cat’s food and I saw your review. You must have been the person in the waiting room the last time I got food ranting about how a hospital should not charge to treat any complication after a surgery whether it was their fault or not. What world do you live in? I don’t even know you and it was clear to me that you were a professional victim who expects the rest of the world to pay their way. I feel sorry for the staff for having to deal with you. My opinion of them is even higher since they were so nice to me while having to hear your whining.

The only reason I am even giving one star is that the
actually surgery was very good. Other than that I am completely
disappointed by my experience. My kitten got an infection after a routine
Spay procedure. Initially she was called in after surgery because she was
not eating and feeling bad. Not only was I charged for the follow
up appointment, the vet did not treat her for tell tale sign of infection.
Then I bring her in a week later with a huge infection and open incision site.
And the vet blames the kitty and owner on infection, says I should have used E. collar which I was not given or told to use. Said I should have checked earlier for infection. And then charged me a huge amount for another surgery to clear infection.
Charged for additional pain meds too.
Over all a simple spay procedure ended up costing me over 1,000 $ and vet would not take responsibility for their poor diligence and communication.
Vet also refused to complete treatment of taking out staples due to my upset and actually not only blamed me but said I am lying when I said I was not given an E. collar post spay surgery.
Over all I am outraged!!! Clearly for prophet vet means charge at all costs despite
any complications post surgery! I give them an F for poor ethics and humanitarian care of animals. And I give an F for poor human relation skills.

These people care about your babies and want to help you. From the techs, to the vets and even the front desk staff, they are all knowledgeable and ready for your questions.
We took our Blue there after he went on a midnight stroll and these lovely vets give him the best care. Testing for everything and doing a full check up, even making sure he was okay with a phone call later.
They are pricey but don’t forget that this is a cat only location. They love what they do and they love your babies.
