Absolutely Horrific Inhumane and Traumatic !!! If I could I'd give this awful place -100 for how my…read morehusband and I were treated and what they did to our cat Rocky !!! We took our cat Rocky (8-9 yrs old) here because he seemed to be having some trouble breathing and had refused to eat for the past 24 hours , he was still active and running around , jumping up onto his chair and using his litter box before we took him here . After getting him to this place and signing him in and oddly having to pay before he was even seen , a vet assistant came and took him out a door into what looked like a garage , they wouldn't let me stay with him (I've NEVER left any of my pet's sides when at a vet) after about 45 minutes a tech came out with an estimate saying the vet wanted to do all kinds of tests , the estimate was over $800 !!! Then she tells me his heart is barely beating , (it was beating fine actually a little fast before we got him there due to the anxiety of being in the cat carrier and car ride) , we definitely couldn't afford $800+ dollars and Stupidity believed what the tech said , so we chose to let him go peacefully and have him euthanized . After another 45 minutes we were brought into a tiny room and waited almost another HOUR without being told ANYTHING , then a tech brought Rocky in and he was unconscious and gasping for air !! I want to know what these people did to him when they took him into that garage or whatever it is !!! When the vet came in she NEVER said a word to either of us , and when I asked her what happened to my cat , she just said oh he's in shock !! Well he wasn't when I brought him in and he wasn't when they took him from me at the front , he's been to different vets throughout his life and that's NEVER HAPPENED !!! Then she put a needle into him and he started screaming and twisting !! I've had to have cats euthanized before and that never happened !! Then she said something about the needle not being in the vein right and stuck him again and again he screamed and twisted ! Then she picked him up roughly and took him out the door saying something about having to get the needle in properly , so I was just left sitting there waiting , cause my husband couldn't stay and see this woman torturing our cat !! I sat there for about 20 minutes before I finally asked the girl at the front what the hell was going on with my cat !? She went out the door and came back 15 minutes later and said I could come back , Rocky was layed out on a table and the vet just shoved the needle into him , , when his breathing stopped , she didn't even look at me she just said , there he's dead . I will NEVER forgive myself for taking my Sweet little Rocky to this Horrible place and I'll never forget or unsee how he looked when they brought him into that room and how he was treated and tortured by these Awful people !! Then this morning, they responded to my review trying to defend what that horrible woman did to him , with excuses and lies I WAS THERE !!! I SAW WHAT THAT HORRIBLE WOMAN DID TO HIM !!!!!! If you Love your pets STAY FAR AWAY FROM THIS PLACE !!!!! This is the BS they sent me this morning (fyi they mention Rocky not being up to date on his rabies shot , Rocky has NEVER been outside and never once tried to get outside , our regular vet said she was fine with him not getting his rabies vaccine due to that fact) My Best Friends Animal Hospital (Owner) 7 hours ago I am truly sorry to hear about your experience with us and the distress it has caused you and your husband. It's clear how much you loved Rocky and I deeply empathize with the pain of losing a beloved pet. Clearly your review is very emotional but we would like to make some clarifications. You called asking for Rocky to be seen because he was having difficulty breathing and the doctor had put one of your other cats down so could you bring him in. It was explained that the doctor was in surgery but to bring Rocky over now. When you arrived the doctor was still in surgery and there was a 15 min wait. The technician took Rockys history and you indicated he was not current on his rabies vaccine and could not provide us with previous medical records. Rocky was brought through the food room, not a garage, to the treatment area for evaluation. A pet who is not current on a rabies vaccine puts everyone at risk and extra precautions need to be taken which extends the exam and evaluation time. If an unvaccinated pet bites someone, the pet's head needs to be sent to Trenton for testing and the person bitten will need six shots at once for possible rabies exposure. Once the exam was done, It was explained that he had a low heart rate and we would need to perform diagnostics to find out the cause. You were given an estimate for the recommended diagnostics. I am sorry for the cost but in today's economic climate prices are high. You declined ALL diagnostics. Without diagnostics we are unable to formulate a treatment plan, expected recovery or

​This place is a complete nightmare, and the way they treat people and their pets is downright…read moretraumatic. ​When your animal is suffering and you are standing there terrified, desperate for someone to help, the staff at Absecon Animal Hospital do not see a living, breathing creature in pain--they just see an opportunity to bleed you dry. ​It is profoundly upsetting and deeply cruel how they operate. They actively prey on the love you have for your pet, knowing you will do whatever it takes to help them, and they use that vulnerability to financially destroy you. The price gouging is so severe, so calculated, and so shameless that it feels like outright extortion. ​This is especially true with their medications. It is absolutely sickening how they hold your pet's health hostage by charging astronomical, unjustifiable markups on life-saving medicine that costs a fraction of the price anywhere else. They know your animal needs it to survive or be out of pain, and they use that exact desperation to line their own pockets. Every single basic necessity is marked up to a disgusting degree while they casually tally up a bill that leaves you gasping. ​You go to a vet expecting comfort, compassion, and urgent medical care. Instead, leaving this place just leaves you feeling completely hollow, sick to your stomach, and utterly robbed. It is a devastating realization that the people you trusted with your helpless animal couldn't care less about whether they live or die, as long as the invoice is paid. ​They are a soulless, greedy operation running a racket on terrified pet owners. Please, I am begging anyone reading this, do not take your animals here. Save yourself the heartbreak, the trauma, and the financial ruin. Go to a vet who actually has a heart.

Even when they're naughty and get into the trash or have a little accident, everything is in order when I get home and my dogs are happy and loved. **Need to add an update because of one visit in particular. It has taken me a while to be able to write this. Over the Summer, I had the amazing folks from Paws First watching my dogs while I was away for the weekend out of state. My senior dog's health had been in decline for a while, but it didn't seem to be cause for too much concern- just typical old dog stuff. One night, her health took a very sudden and dramatic turn. It was clear that if she were brought in to the the vet that she would not be returning. I didn't want my old girl's last moments to be spent someplace unfamiliar. The staff at Paws First went above and beyond to provide extra care and comfort to her when she needed it most so I could race home to be with her. I am forever grateful for all they did for her.

Her vehicle was spacious and clean, her timing for pickup was punctual and she sent me photos and location information all along the way.

I wish I could give her more stars because she went above and beyond any expectations I or my family had. I'm also physically disabled and she helped me handle the cages with no problem or questions asked. She made it all very easy and stress free when I hired her and I highly recommend her company.

The first time we brought her, I almost didn't leave her because she looked so sad and scared when I was leaving. The second time I brought her she still looked back at me but it wasn't as bad. By the third time, she was pulling me into the building and did not look back at me at all when I left. Tail wagging and wiggle butts every time now!

They responded quickly and reassured me that a biologist inspects each turtle before it's cleared for shipping. They also explained that the turtles are packed appropriately for the climate they're being sent to and shipped overnight to minimize stress. Shipping ended up being delayed by about three weeks, but CBReptile kept me updated with weekly emails, letting me know that their biologist hadn't approved the turtle for shipment yet. I really appreciated the transparency and the fact that they prioritized the turtle's health over speed. I'd much rather wait a bit longer if it means a healthier animal. When he finally arrived on 4/30, he was alert and active right out of the box. He's tiny, about a 1-inch shell, but full of energy, an excellent swimmer, and has a healthy appetite. He seems very happy and is thriving. Their communication was excellent throughout the entire process, and the care they show for the animals is obvious. I wouldn't hesitate to order from them again. Highly recommended.
