Overview

Our doctors and staff are committed to providing compassionate, quality care and advanced veterinary medicine for your cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, chinchillas, rats mice and gerbils. By catering to these small animals, our hospital is calm and quiet: an ideal place for pets who might otherwise be stressed by the presence of dogs, birds, and reptiles

Dr. Jennifer Saver graduated from Michigan State University in 1994. She was in private practice until 1999 when she left to do emergency medicine. In November 2000 she opened Catnip and Carrots in order to specialize in cats, rabbits, and other small mammals. Dr. Saver felt it was extremely important to provide a quiet, low stress environment that would cater to the natures of both cats and rabbits. In order to expand, Catnip and Carrots moved to its present location on Jericho Turnpike in September 2013
