Anicare Veterinary Clinic Wangsa Maju

Last Saturday, I decided to take the guard's cat to Anicare for a checkup and vaccine in preparation to get her spayed.

I turned up around 11:30am and was surprised to see so many people waiting! I must've been 5th or 6th in the queue while I waited for an hour. I had no idea how busy Anicare gets during the weekends - Right Angle Animal Clinic only seems half as busy during weekends. But then again, perhaps it's because Anicare is run by only 1 vet, Dr Chris, assisted by 2 aunties - 1 to help with cleaning and holding the pet, the other to serve at reception. Anicare is usually very quiet when I come on weekdays.

Despite being busy, Dr Chris was very attentive with the guard's cat. She double-checked sample crusts from the cat's ears for mites before declaring the cat's ears mite-free. And she was careful to space out a general physical examination with the more stressful temperature check (thermometer in the cat's butt) and vaccine, so as not to stress the cat out. She even praised little Comot for being so patient with her.

All in all, I'd recommend Dr Chris if you're a pet owner living around Wangsa Maju area. However, Dr Chris doesn't really handle spaying / neutering for the moment as she would need to arrange for her vet friend at another animal clinic to come over to assist her. So for now, she would normally recommend going directly to her friend's clinic (run by husband and wife) if you're in a hurry.

  2. Anicare fees are nominal and reasonable.
    I used to bring my cat to her while I was still residing in Setiawangsa. I had also lodged my cat at her clinic when I had to go off for vacations or home for Raya. Her kind assistant will make a call about a month before Raya and Christmas to enquire if you want to lodge your pets so that they can reserve a space or spaces

    required. Your pets will be looked after very well and even have complimentary bath and grooming if you lodged for more than a week.

    Dr Chris just love animals and she is a good natured person too....Her former partner, the late Dr Yogeswari was also a very gentle person and loved animals very much.

    Back home here in Tawau there are very few animal doctors in fact too few. when my cat, Leenie went into rapid spasm and pain , I cried so much because the vet available couldn't give me the exact cause of suffering or what ever was wrong with my cat. A day after my Leenie died. That was when I realised I missed the services I used to received at Anicare Clinic very much.

    Most of all we missed Dr Yoges too may she rest in peace.
