OUR STORY — WHY WE EXIST
The Cat Clinic was created to redefine feline healthcare in the Philippines. Before we opened our doors in 2021, most veterinary clinics treated cats and dogs the same way — noisy environments, mixed-animal waiting areas, stressful confinement, and limited understanding of feline behavior and medical needs.
We believed cats deserved better.
So we built the country’s first true feline-exclusive veterinary hospital, designed from the ground up for cat comfort, safety, and specialized care. Every detail — from our hospital flow to our medical protocols and environment — was intentionally created to protect cats and provide the level of care they truly require.
What began as a vision has now grown into a multi-branch hospital network trusted by thousands of cat parents across Metro Manila.
The Cat Clinic and Kiki’s Story:
In 2020, our beloved cat, Kiki, fell critically ill with FIP. We brought him to a traditional mixed-animal clinic where he was exposed to barking dogs, stress, and a lack of infectious disease separation. Despite our best efforts, Kiki’s condition worsened.
Soon after, three more of our cats contracted parvovirus from the same clinic. We cared for them at home to keep them safe — and thankfully, they recovered. But Kiki’s loss changed everything.
That moment revealed a painful truth:
Cats needed a hospital designed specifically for them — quiet, clean, organized, and safe.
Kiki’s story ignited our mission.
His memory continues to guide every decision we make and every cat we care for.
Meet the Founders
The Cat Clinic was founded by Sherry and Cris, whose shared love for cats — and a deeply personal experience — led to the creation of the Philippines’ first true cat-only hospital.
Their journey began with Kiki, a beloved cat whose struggle with illness revealed the limitations of traditional mixed-animal veterinary clinics: stressful environments, constant noise, forced proximity to dogs, and a lack of proper infectious disease separation. After witnessing how these conditions affected Kiki’s ability to heal, Sherry and Cris knew that cats deserved better — a hospital designed specifically for their needs.
Motivated by this experience, they built a new model of feline healthcare centered on safety, cleanliness, medical excellence, and a calm environment where cats could truly recover. What began as a mission to honor Kiki has since grown into the country’s leading network of feline-exclusive hospitals, serving thousands of cat parents and setting the national benchmark for specialized feline medicine.
Today, Sherry and Cris continue to lead The Cat Clinic with the same purpose that inspired its beginning:
to create a world where every cat receives the specialized, gentle, and high-quality veterinary care they deserve.
OUR VISION
We envision a future where every cat in the Philippines has access to world-class, specialized veterinary care. Our goal is to be the country’s leading beacon of innovation in feline healthcare — setting new national standards and making high-quality feline-focused services accessible to cat families across the nation.
We aim to strengthen the bond between cats and their owners through education, medical excellence, and compassionate care. By advancing feline medicine and elevating the standard of veterinary practices, we hope to build a world where cats live longer, healthier, and happier lives alongside their human families.
