I've grown up with kittens and adult cats my whole 39 years on this earth. As a child I went with…read moremy parents to the vet to take our cats (and dogs), witnessed our cat (that we had from the time I was Kindergarten-college) that got hit by a car when I was in the 4th grade and had to get his tail amputated. I wanted to adopt a kitten for my son and we checked out Princeton's Meow, it was filthy, it reeked of cat urine and feces. The lady with the short brown hair and glasses and almost every other person in there working were sneezing and sniffling the entire time and she seemed not to be able to form a complete sentence without stammering over herself because she didn't know anything about any of the cats we asked her about. There were boxes all over the floor that made it hard to get by to each room, that was a safety hazard. Some of the cats had sores on their noses as if they had been mis treated or neglected. I told them I'd be interested in declawing my cat like our old veterinarian and Petsmart did for us several times back in the early to late 90's and 2000's and so forth. This place began sending me harassing emails saying if I do that to a cat then xyz will happen. I told them to please leave me alone since they turned me down for adoption, but they continued to send me harassing emails from their agency. Then got an email from an "Alara Krown". I'm not sure if that's an alias or someone's actual name who works there. I then told her if they continued to email me then I'd report them for harassment. Next thing I know they send me an anonymous letter in the mail stating the same thing. That's not a good look. You already run a shady business with very weird hours, but you all continue to harass me?? You turned me down, so why continue to bother me? I don't want one of your old kittens anyway. I do however feel bad for them because of the improper way you all are treating them. Very unsanitary and harmful. Poor kitties.

My husband and I saw some cats in 2020 on the Princeton's Meow website and facebook page who caught…read moremy eye. I corresponded with Vanessa about 1 specific cats' personality before we drove the 2 hours to visit. She was a wealth of information as I used the chat box to correspond with her and ask questions from their facebook page. My husband and I visited and ended up adopting a lovely 5 yr and 8 yr old cat. There were sooo many friendly cats in the cageless (cats walking around rooms) atmosphere! Staff and volunteers were friendly to us and let us move easily throughout the building's rooms, checking cats out. We are in love with our 2, these two years later. I used to be a vet tech and as one reviewer wrote, I did see a few of the cats appear to have upper respiratory symptoms including the 8yr old I adopted, but having worked at an SPCA myself years ago, it's just one of those common things that happens when you have cats living in close quarters in most any cat shelter or rescue. It did not deter me nor phase me. Most of the cats looked just fine and were running and jumping about and playing with toys and engaging with us. We saw mostly adult cats that day. And the staff were great about knowing the cats histories and answering questions about their behavior. They knew their cats! I commend this rescue for what they offer these cats and we are thrilled with Bianca and Mya (original names from the rescue). They are delightful girls. And they are older, yes, which is what I was preferring as with older cats, 'what you see is what you get'. Plus, I was looking for more subdued cats who would do well with our senior dogs. We made out great with our 2 girls and I would go back to this rescue and adopt from them again, if we had the space or desire to do so. Both cats were spayed already and were current on vaccines. We took them home the same day we met them. We had been told to bring proof of rabies vaccines for our other pets, which we brought with us. It was an easy adoption process and I was very happy to pay the adoption fees for both, knowing the money would help other future cats.

The practice administrator is toxic. Gaslighting and blaming me for looking after my best friend and wanting answers about his tumors/cancer and stating "it was an easy fix if you'd let us" after telling me they would deny future services. That's fine, I don't want to know what it would have cost just to get to the $1600 quote to remove a tumor on his tail. This is not the establishment it used to be. They have completely lost their way. They will charge you through the nose for every little thing, not give you feedback or consultation and scare you over unrelated issues just to charge for more procedures. They aren't the same, all the good vets left.

You pay ALOT of money up front for very little coverage when something happens and then they hold you until you pay the contract (yearly) off before they allow you to transfer from them. BAD! Met Dr. Uekele and Team here. AWESOME! I felt at home right away. They are a newer staff currently, but all very warm and willing to do whatever to accommodate our fur babies (and we have 4 rescues). The vet technicians are extremely knowledgeable and offer many different options for our then stressed feline and they all helped once home and we are good now. Was able to get 3 cats in on an emergency for rabies shots so that we could adopt a puppy from a local foster who required updated vaccines...Banfield would not release our records and we couldn't put our hands on the tags, Dr. Uekele said bring them in and a tech would give the shots and we can work from there...Now we are a happy family with 3 felines and 1 canine. I also got wind that they will be adding to their staff shortly with a Vet that is absolutely as amazing as Dr. Uekele and we are super excited about this. About 5 months ago we had to say good bye to our 13 year old Golden Retriever, husband's first ever dog and the dog that grew up with our kids. It is always hard to say good bye and the loss is real!!! Dr. U gave us an extra year by helping us understand what she may have going on and allowing us to make the decision to chose treatment or let her go, giving us all the options in detail. It was a devastating day to say the least, but the staff and Dr. U never left our side throughout the process...Can't say enough about that and how much it matter to us, especially my husband. I have read many of these reviews and it saddens me because I've seen first hand how they care about your pets. Dr. Ueleke is now the NEW owner of ACC. He is working hard to make sure that owners and their babies are taken care of with empathy and patience and more than that, good veterinary care! Anytime a business changes hands, some staff depart, new staff steps in and change can create a little bit of chaos and folks don't always like change. But please I ask that you give them another chance. Privately owned vet clinics are a dying breed, many have now been gobbled up into the huge corporations such as Banfield. I could have stayed there, paid my 1000.00 a year contract fee for normal pet care (included 1 annual visit, vaccines and that was it!) and not been able to see the same vet twice. I care much more for my pets that to do that. I've seen some of the comments about the costs here as well, like I stated above, 1000.00 or more a year for a contract of care (no choice, you had to accept this) and currently for all I've had done with Dr. Ueleke and Team, I am not even CLOSE to this amount over 2 years now. How much is the care for your pet worth to you and better yet, WHAT ARE YOU GETTING FOR WHAT YOU ARE PAYING FOR????? Banfield won't work with you, but clinics like ACC will! Please give them a second chance. I promise you won't be disappointed.

Dr. Karla at Whiskers and Paws is truly exceptional. I…read morecannot say enough wonderful things about the care my 19-year-old cat, Goldie, received from Dr. Karla and her team. From the very first conversation, Dr. Karla was compassionate, patient, and incredibly thorough. She took the time to explain everything clearly, answered every question without rushing, and treated Goldie with such gentleness and respect. Goldie required a dental procedure that felt overwhelming given her age, but Dr. Karla's expertise and calm reassurance gave me complete confidence. The procedure went smoothly, and Goldie is already home, comfortable, and even eating -- which speaks volumes about the quality of care she received. What also truly stood out was how fair and reasonable the pricing was compared to other veterinary practices in the area. Exceptional care is often paired with overwhelming costs, but Dr. Karla provides top-tier, thoughtful veterinary medicine at a price that feels honest and accessible -- which means so much to pet owners, especially those caring for senior animals. Most of all, Dr. Karla truly listens. She understands how deeply we love our pets and treats them like the family members they are. I never once felt dismissed or brushed off -- only supported and informed every step of the way. If you are looking for a veterinarian who is knowledgeable, compassionate, and genuinely devoted to animal well-being, I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Karla and Whiskers and Paws. We are so grateful to have found her. -- Amber

After waiting in the car for over 40 minutes, a call was made to confirm both dogs and what they needed. The tech even told me she didn't know how much longer because the vet arrived late. Once I heard that, I decided to leave and go elsewhere. While waiting in the car, I went on Yelp and noticed other people complaining about the same issues as mine. Walk-in clinics are great, and I have used them especially for vaccinations but in this case, waiting in the car and being at the mercy of a person who isn't very efficient is not saving money or time. I would advise to do your homework and find a vet who is reasonable with charges, and cares about people and pets, especially with waiting.
