Very happy with my experience at Blue Pearl. It truly was an emergency, and they took my cat in right away. Everyone was very kind and thoughtful. I'm glad Blue Pearl exists.

Can’t say enough good things. My Boxer ate a rib bone and it got logged intestines. The staff was very good with him and very upfront about the costs. They took great care of him and had us on our way home that evening.
