Cat Hospital

As I am a veterinarian myself I especially appreciate the expert and thorough care given to my cats at the cat hospital, both in Irvine and in Marina Del Rey!

I recently found T.H.E. Cat Hospital right here on FACEBOOK. I took my Cat Spring for some Orthodontic care to extract two front canine teeth. He is a much happier Cat 🐱now‼️ They handled my Fur Baby with expert care. But, I had a problem when he got home 🤨. Summer didn’t want to have anything to do with Spring anymore 🤔. I called T.H.E. Cat Hospital for advice 🤓. They told me that Summer didn’t recognize Spring anymore because of his scent‼️😱. They told me to rub the clothes that Dennis & I have worn on one Cat, then the other for a few days 🤔. Presto‼️it worked🤗🤗🤗. We took them in together for the follow up visit to avoid that smelly situation again. This is a fantastic place to take your Cat when Veterinary care is needed 💯%%%♥️❤️♥️❤️‼️

My cat has been a patient of Dr. Elston’s for the last three years. He is always exceptionally patient with her extreme antics inside the waiting room and the hospital staff & techs are superbly professional. My phone calls are received promptly and I’m always greeted with a smile. My cat is a handful, so I bring her in to get her nails trimmed. The techs always do a nice job with her trims even though she is not a happy kitty. I appreciate all of their patience, professionalism and chatting with the front office staff while I wait for Princess (not her name) to be finished. Thanks for always making my visit memorable and enjoyable when I come in even though she is beside herself with anxiety. Please keep up the good and appreciated work!

I am a kitten foster mom and joni and the staff always seem to have the right answer for me.

I've been coming to THE Cat Hospital since 2004 and have always been pleased with the amazing care my kitties get there. Dr. Elston is gentle, kind and compassionate, as are his staff. His facility is state of the art with a clean and warm feel. With no barking dogs, it is quiet and serene. The boarding facility is like no other and the care is amazing. The merchandise and food choices are well thought out for customer convenience. The staff is knowledgeable, friendly and go the extra mile. This is the place for our most precious feline family members life long care❤️

I would definitely say I'm a better cat owner and my cats live better lives because of the advice I have received from Dr. Elston at T.H.E. Cat Hospital. His expertise truly makes me feel more at ease when navigating my cats' health issues. Dr. Elston is gentle with cats as well as their humans. He takes the time to explain everything and answer questions thoroughly. The practice is quiet and spacious. The staff is kind and caring. T.H.E. Cat Hospital is the #1 place for my kitties!

If you have a kitty in the OC, this is the vet for you - they specialize in cat’s and they have a 5-star rating for their customer service. I was dreading the cost of the visit, labs, x-rays and meds. The vet said Kiko was stressed, no UTI - he palped him thoroughly - his bladder was empty.... He got a shot of an antiinflamatory w steroids and pain meds. I got his script, paid and came home. I had called 4 other vets in the area and was told they’d need labs and x-rays. One place quoted me, I kid you not, $586 to find out he’s stressed?!?! It cost me $110. Hehehe 😜

Dr. Elston and his staff have all been wonderful to my four cats over the 12+ years I've lived in OC. Have helped me ease my seniors to a kind and compassionate end when the time came. Could not recommend more highly. 😸
