    At Petfocus Vetcare, we offer various services, some unavailable outside major capitals. Our vet with a special interest in feline medicine and surgery, together with our dedicated cat nurse team, provides expert care for your feline friends. Our separate cat area ensures your kitty can relax in a stress-free environment without interacting with dogs. We believe in communicating regularly with our clients and treating every pet individually, providing personalised care tailored to their needs.


    Our state-of-the-art facilities and highly qualified veterinary team ensure your pet receives the best possible care. We also have visiting specialists, including dermatologists, ophthalmologists, surgical specialists, and other specialists who come in regularly. We cover everything, from routine checkups to antivenom treatments or more specialised services such as radioactive iodine treatment for cats.


    As a responsible pet care provider, we work closely with local councils to offer subsidy programmes for responsible pet ownership, including subsidised desexing and dentistry. We also partner with the Albury Animal Shelter for cats and dogs. To make life easier for our clients when their beloved pet needs our help, we have Afterpay, Zip Pay, and VetPay options to make pet care more affordable and accessible. At Petfocus Vetcare, your pet's comfort and security are paramount, and we provide outstanding care for your furry family members.


About Us

Our team at Petfocus Vetcare comprises five skilled veterinarians and eight highly qualified vet nurses, with more talented professionals set to join us soon. Dr. Renee Pigdon, a border area-born-and-bred vet and owner and founder of the clinic, is the most highly qualified cat vet between Melbourne and Canberra. She leads a dedicated cat nurse team, incredibly knowledgeable in cat medicine and surgery. Together, our team is committed to providing exceptional care to your pets professionally, compassionately, and personally.

    In 2019, Petfocus Vetcare was honoured to be awarded the Excellence in Innovation award at the Albury-Wodonga Business Awards for our state-of-the-art species-segregated clinic and hospital. This new facility was designed and owned by Dr. Renee Pigdon, who has been practicing veterinary medicine in the area for 27 years. Dr. Pigdon's vision was to bring city standards of care to the pets of the Border in a nurturing and professional environment.


    Petfocus Vetcare proudly offers specialised and modern services, including hydrotherapy, a cancer centre, and visiting specialists, including surgical specialists. Our Petfocus Cat Clinic and Hospital is the only one of its kind outside a major capital city and has achieved gold accreditation with the International Society of Feline Medicine.


    We understand that pets don't keep regular business hours, so our veterinarians are available for consultation seven days a week and are always on call for emergencies. Our team is committed to providing exceptional veterinary care for your pet professionally and personally, and we look forward to serving you and your furry family members.

    This place is fabulous. I particularly love the layout. It's well thought out.

    I've only had two visits so far with two separate cats but we're making it our regular now for the dogs too.
