At Animal Emergency Australia, our hospitals and veterinary teams are dedicated to providing exceptional care for cats when they need it most, any time of day or night. That’s why we are thrilled to announce the opening of a new specialist veterinary facility in Brisbane, Cat Specialist Services (CSS). This state-of-the-art feline hospital is located right next door to our Animal Emergency Service (AES) Underwood location.
CSS is not just another veterinary clinic. It is a purpose-built, stand-alone facility designed specifically to cater to the unique needs of cats in a veterinary setting. Purpose-built with cats in mind with every design, this new hospital offers a comfortable environment tailored towards feline well-being.
What sets Cat Specialist Services Apart?
What sets CSS apart is their team of leading feline specialists and experts in surgery, cardiology, oncology, and more. With their expertise and the latest cutting-edge technology at our disposal, we are uniquely positioned to offer unparalleled care for feline patients.
One of the highlights of CSS is the exclusive iodine suite, the largest of its kind in the southern hemisphere. This suite offers luxurious accommodation for cats undergoing radioactive iodine treatment, with ample natural light, garden walls, spacious isolated boarding, and even televisions to keep cats entertained and comfortable during their stay while they receive treatment.
CSS also understand that medical issues can be difficult for cats when owners need to leave home for extended periods. That’s why they also offer medical boarding for pre-existing CSS patients and cats who have received treatment at the hospital. This special boarding facility provides a “home away from home” where cats can receive the medical care they need while their owners are away.
