★★★★★ Our cat Tadpole that we adopted from an animal shelter for Christmas became deathly I'll. Care Animal Hospital did all they could to help him. We ultimately decided to send him over the rainbow bridge and chose their cremation services. I'm SO grateful for the fur I was given in an adorable glass bottle. When we brought him in it wasn't 100% certain we weren't taking him home we needed a final opinion. And in the midst of all the crying and heartbreak I forgot about fur and whiskers I'd and paw prints ... but they took care of that. THATNK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!!!!!

The staff have always been so kind and prompt. Love it here!Rateira D.Rateira D. ★★★★★ Dr. Hobson is exceptional. Very educated, personable, and thorough and explains things any dummy can understand. A little on the expensive side in my opinion in comparison to other vets in the city but not unreasonable and i think you get what you pay for and if you truly love your pet it is well worth the expense. Has made our dogs end of life struggles much more comfortable while other vets in the area were much more dismissive. Staff is just as competent and helpful in their duties and Muncie residents are fortunate to have such an establishment for pet lovers.D LD L ★★★★★ Dr. Hobson is great! Have been coming to CAH for many years. Thanks!Scott P.Scott P. ★★★★☆ Personnel were friendly, my dog was having some anxiety issues but they calmed him down and he took his shots like a trooper!Julayne M.Julayne M. ★★★★☆ The vets and staff are kind and friendly. However, they like you to pay before they see your pet 😏. That is a bad experience. Especially if you have a pet who is critically ill that you have to put down.Lori Ann D.Lori Ann D.js_loader
