Cat Parents Rejoice: Why in-home visits are a win for Cats!
Does your cat hate the carrier, car rides, or the vet’s office? You’re not alone—most cats experience extreme stress when taken out of their home environment. That’s why more cat parents are choosing in-home care for everything from routine wellness checks to post-op recovery.
At Purpose Paws, we specialize in stress-free in-home cat care, so your feline friend stays calm, safe, and healthy—without the dreaded vet visit drama.
Why Cats Do Better With In-Home Care
No traumatic car rides – 80% of cats show signs of stress during transport.
Familiar environment – Less anxiety, no exposure to other animals’ smells/sounds.
More accurate health monitoring – Stress can mask symptoms at the vet.
In-Home Cat Services That Reduce Vet Visits

Why drag your cat to the clinic when we can:
✔ Check weight, hydration & coat condition
✔ Monitor appetite & litter box habits (key for early disease detection)
✔ Administer flea/tick prevention
✔ Provide senior cat mobility assessments
📌 Perfect for: Routine health tracking between vet visits.
2. Post-Surgery Recovery Care
Cats heal best at home, but need monitoring for:
Incision checks (no licking/chewing)
