    Original email from November 1st from Urban Animal saying nothing was wrong with my cat who had internal bleeding and was dying.
    Nico C.

    Urban animal hid my review on google. They have never reached out to me or taken any accountability for their negligence. I have now spoken with several people who have had horrible experiences with this vet - even just last week.

    Steven L.

    These people LIED about me on my Google Review of them where I spoke the truth they lied and said I made a scene or was rude or nasty in their office which is a complete lie. After I left their office and paid my bill I got home and started thinking of all the ways they try to run my bill up with ridiculous over the top fear mongering- instead of trying a simple approach with dogs be prepared to have a pricey visit there. I won't stop posting about the way their manager LIED and tried to cover up their lies by making a salacious and slanderous reply to my review. BEWARE of THESE PEOPLE. I used to go there with my first two dogs but no more- they have too many locations in fancy schmancy high rises $$$ and they even asked me before I paid my insane bill if I would agree to pay 15% MORE to help others These people are a revolving door of clueless veterinarians just running up tests and bills. MY OPINION. I will only remove my review IF they remove their LIES and SLANDER. Nasty people- wouldn't help my five pound dog because they are PETTY SEE OTHE REPLIES AND READ THE ONE I SHARE BELOW- THEY KEEP MAKING EXCUSES IN THEIR REPLIES ANE LIES.

    i have been coming here for a few years now and they always go above and beyond in terms of care and affordable (for in the city of course) treatments. i have sadly had to put two of my pets down here (old age and medical issues) and they always showed incredible grace and tenderness in those moments that i will never forget. yesterday i took my dog in for his first ever dental appointment and i was really nervous about it but they made me feel so much better about having him go under anesthetic. its the day after now and my little dog is feeling so much better without those nasty teeth and the healing process has been smooth so far ! i truly appreciate and love this vet , the fact that they do emergency walk in's is a huge bonus !

    Title: Devastating Loss - Urban Animal Must Be Investigated

    Urban Animal Gave a Lethal Vaccine to My Healthy Dog - Justice for Gujy I'm one of the owners of Gujy, a young, healthy dog whose life was taken after a visit to Urban Animal. On May 9, 2025, Gujy was brought to the Capitol Hill clinic for a vaccination. He was completely healthy at the time. After that visit, he became sick, and within a few days--on May 14--he died. This was a preventable tragedy. Gujy was up to date on his vaccinations, and we believe the vaccine they gave him was not only unnecessary but deadly. When I called Urban Animal to request his medical records, I was met with resistance and delays. Despite being listed in their system, they initially refused to give me any information. Eventually, they claimed Gujy had only been seen on May 9 and denied any follow-up visit. It felt like they were trying to cover their tracks instead of being transparent and accountable. Gujy was born on January 23, 2024. He was happy, healthy, and full of life. His death should never have happened. Urban Animal's carelessness and refusal to take responsibility must not be ignored. I'm asking for an investigation into the vaccine they gave him and how they handled everything that followed. No more innocent animals should suffer the same fate. Justice for Gujy.

    I came home to find my new puppy with a bag of grapes. I checked with Animal Poison Control, but they wanted $80 just to tell me that grapes are poisonous. I called Banfield which is a half block away where I had taken my puppy before. They told me to call Urban Animal. I called and they said I might need to pay $300 dollars. We went there and they saw her immediately. They gave her anb injection to make her vomit and said they didn't see any grape residue so they did not recommend any blood tests. It cost $95, less than a third of what they told me.

    I have been bringing my senior dog here since I moved to Seattle two years ago. Because of my dog's age I have been there over 20 times in that short time span, so I have a fair amount of experience with the practice. My dog, and I, have always been treated conscientiously and well. A few weeks ago he had to be put to sleep (he was 14.5) and the staff was compassionate, both to him and with me. As to the complaints about having to wait, it is a rare and so busy walk-in practice. In other words, first come first served. I always arrived about 1/2 hour before they opened and my wait times were then often either non-existent or very short. Try and get an appointment at any vet service in Seattle and it you will find it to be at least a few days if not a week or more.

When we first walked in, what we noticed most was that it was quiet and peaceful. Our cat who is a nervous kitty out of the house seemed calm and just took in her surroundings. We sat in the waiting area with the clinic cat who was so open to belly rubs :) The exam room was small, but has a bench for sitting that can only fit 1-2 people comfortably. Our kitty immediately took to hiding, but the staff were very gentle with scooping her out from under for the exam. She received two vaccines and Dr. Aimee was quick and our cat seemed very comfortable hanging out in her lap during the exam.

I will definitely be going back for both my cats and highly recommend City Cat!

I started visiting this vet because they offered folks who work at Amazon a discount. Do not fall for that trap. I had a dog who had seizures. I needed to pick up levitiracetum and apoquel for her regularly. (1) this vet has an online clinic they probably have a deal with, for many drugs it's excruciatingly overpriced. Meaning I pay 1/5th of the price of the seizure medication at my local pharmacy. When I told this vet to call in my dogs rx they said by law they could not. This is false. You as a client are allowed to pick up your rx anywhere you want to. I actually reported this and a few weeks later I was called back by LUV indicating they could all of sudden call in my dogs rx. While I lost trust in them, I appreciated that they pivoted and admitted it. But the pain continues. My dog needs her bordatella updated. She had surgery about 6 months ago from the same vet, And her wellness is only a week past one year , we visit the vet regularly. The annual wellness law is to ensure the vet has seen the dog in the last year to ensure they are prescribing medications on an animal they've seen.....LUV examined my dog pre-surgery but they say none of the visits count to establish vet-client relationship and won't do the bordatella without an annual wellness exam. We were there 6 months ago for her pre surgery work. We are there regularly. Last year when I updated my dogs vaccinations I paid more than $700 they added on a bunch of stuff we didn't need. They code things their way and read the law their way to add as many things to your tab as possible.

I'm an established patient, they know me and my partner (and my cat!). Unfortunately, asking for an update on labwork yesterday culminated in an absolutely bizarre phone conversation with one of the receptionists that ended with "Look, we have lots of other patients. We can transfer your records to another vet if you're unhappy." And then hung up. That is, without a doubt, an insane thing to be ok saying to a client. I just wanted to know whether I needed to postpone my upcoming appt to wait for the labs! I no longer feel like there will be a good standard of care so I'm taking them up on the "find a new vet" threat. My 17 year-old cat gets to re-establish care elsewhere. This absolute catastrophe could've been avoided with the sentences: "Sorry about that, you should've heard back today but we are now expecting it early tomorrow. I wouldn't reschedule your appointment." Instead I got "I don't know what's happening with your pet. Do you want to reschedule the appointment or not?" Maybe things will work out for you here, for me they did for a while, but also maybe they'll rudely show you the door when you ask for an update on your pet. I won't risk that level of volatility in my pet's health care. I don't think you should either.

AND she was super pushy on getting him a vaccine that he was due for, and when I pulled up the previous medical history which I had sent to her and she was supposedly referencing, he was NOT due for it for another two years!! Then after saying a lot of nothing she said she was going to go make a plan with the nurse who came back and said, "since it's your first time here" and showed us a clipboard with a $300 bill including allergy meds and an ear cytology test which we did not agree to. Then as we were discussing with the nurse the fact that we didn't know we were doing an ear cytology test, the doctor opened the door and stood in the doorway just listening with RBF and then closed the door. We will not be going back here and I would never recommend them to anyone. I expect my vet to feel much warmer, and not like a money hungry business.
