Welcome to Affectionately Cats veterinary hospital. The doctors and staff share a passion to nurture the bond between cats and their owners, through veterinary excellence, compassionate care, wellness education, and high ethical standards.
We are a cat only vet hospital and boarding facility so there are no loud noises or dogs barking to frighten your cat at our facility.
The doctors and staff at Affectionately Cats strive to provide the highest quality care for your cat. Every human-feline relationship is unique and we wish to tailor our care to each family's needs.
Dr. Denise Kessler Dr. Kessler earned her doctorate in veterinary medicine in 1990 from the College of Veterinary Medicine at Michigan State University.

With a vision to provide a hospital in the embrace of warm and comfortable surroundings, Dr. Kessler founded and opened Affectionately Cats in 1993.
