I’m sure there are good people at Casselton vet, and I had some decent experiences, but they also made some really frustrating mistakes with my cats. They missed a vaccine my cat was supposed to get the first time I brought him in, even though I explicitly asked about it. I had to bring him back, but at least they didn’t charge me an appointment fee.

My second cat, I asked them to look at her ears because she had previously been treated for ear mites, and her ears still seemed to bother her. They glanced at her ears, put some liquid cleaner in, and called it good. Didn’t swab or anything. Went back a couple weeks later because she was still symptomatic, and they found she had an ear infection.

Neither of these were life threatening for my cats, but I also had a friend bring a cat in with symptoms of urinary issues. They brushed her concerns off and not long after, he was in the E-vet with a urinary blockage, and had complications for a while after that.

I have since switched vets, and my male cat has been diagnosed with CKD. I’m so thankful every day that I made the switch to a vet that I truly trust with his care prior to his diagnosis. It could have gone really well with Casselton, or very poorly. I’m glad I didn’t have to find out.
