Doctor Visits

If you have traveled by air or cruise in the past 14 days or if anyone in the house is ill, please let us know. We will ask you to find someone else to bring your cat Parkview Cat Clinic. We need a healthy staff in order to remain open to care for your cats.

 Your cat MUST be in a carrier. We will not enter your vehicle to collect your pet that is not contained. If you do not have a carrier, we do have some here that you can borrow while you're here for your appointment. It is getting cold, please cover your carrier with a towel or blanket.

    1. When you arrive at Parkview, please call the clinic to let us know you are here for your appointment. Please keep your pet with you until instructed.
    2. Our Techs will call you to get a history on your pet.
    3. We will then ask you to place your carrier on the stand we have by the door and return to your car. A technician will escort your cat into the clinic and you may return to your car.
    4. A doctor will examine your cat and make a plan.
    5. A doctor will call you to discuss a plan, treatments, diagnostics and explain the next steps.
    6. Once your pet is ready to go, we will call you for payment. We will take credit cards over the phone.
    7. We will then return your cat to the carrier stand outside the clinic for you to pick up.

Medication and food

  If there are multiple cars in the parking lot you may have a bit of a wait while we are helping others.  If you call and we don't answer the phone right away, give us a few minutes before calling back, we may be treating a patient.


Animal Emergency Referral Center

The St Paul location will be closed until further notice.  If you need emergency care please call the Oakdale Location at 651-501-3766.

  • "I so appreciate Dr.Fenske and the awesome techs and happy I found a clinic that specializes in cats. They take good care of our senior kitties and go above and beyond. I have never had a cat examinated with such thoroughness and expertise.They are all so gentle, kind and caring."
    Gabrielle
  • "Great care for the kitty cat in your life."
    Emily S.
  • "Dr. Elizabeth Fenske and the staff at Parkview Cat Clinic are phenomenal. If I could give them a ten star rating I would. Dr. Fenske is very thorough and clearly loves cats. She resolved an ongoing nasal problem Oscar had in one visit. The last vet I went to (who shall remain unnamed) was suggesting all kinds of things after the first line of treatment didn't work. Kudos to Dr. Fenske and the amazing staff at Parkview."
    Jani O
  • "Dr. Grant has been great at letting us know how to keep our family healthy and comfortable.

    Dr. Grant and his staff have helped us through the difficult years with our aging feline friends. Over 16 is tougher for some cats than others, but Dr. Grant has been great at letting us know how to keep our family healthy and comfortable."
    Christopher
  • "I came across this gem of a place by chance. One of my kitties was sick and her regular vet was closed that day. From my first phone call to the clinic to the follow up that they did after our visits, the staff was so kind and brought peace of mind during a stressful situation. I have never felt so comforted and confident that she was actually being CARED for and it never felt like we were just being put through and on to the next. Thank you again Kelly, Gabi, Michelle and Dr. Fenske - Dori and I really appreciate you and all of your care! 7/13/2018"
