I love cats! There are not enough words to describe the amount of joy these furry creatures bring to my life. I am lucky to be able to work in an environment where I can enjoy something that makes me so happy. It is impossible not to smile when a clumsy little kitten comes in for his first visit. I started at The Cat Doctor in July 2001. I earned my Veterinary Technician license in 2006 and have held dual roles as a Licensed Veterinary Technician as well as the clinic’s Practice Manager for several years. I believe in environmental enrichment for cats and would be happy to share some ideas with you when you come in!

Cats rule dogs drool! I've always had a passion for animals ever since I was a little girl but there was some thing about cats that I favored. I went to Milwaukee Career College for the Vet Assistant program in 2013 and was lucky enough to have the opportunity to get hired on after my externship. I fell in love with the cats so quickly and 5 years later, here I am. I live at home with my 2 wonderful children and 2 wonderful cats. 

My name is Lorie, after working 11 years in animal emergency and critical care, I decided to become a part of the amazing team at The Cat Doctor in October of 2017. As a receptionist, I meet and  assist clients daily, but I have to admit what I enjoy most is providing quality and compassionate care in a cat friendly dedicated environment and facility!
When I'm not working with my 'furry' friends, I enjoy reading, shopping, attending church functions and spending time with my family.

I joined the Cat Doctor team in 2017 as an Animal Care worker and have recently made the move to Reception. Animals, especially cats, have been a lifelong interest .  I love to learn about cat behavior, from kitten to senior.  There is so much they can tell us, just by a flick of a tail or certain sitting position. With each client I interact with, I strive to make the cat as well as their owners feel as comfortable as possible. Talking with clients and meeting their cats is the best part of my day. I live in Milwaukee with my husband and our three spoiled cats, Nemo, Gizmo and Lila Jean.   Outside of work I enjoy gardening, reading with a cat on my lap, travel and volunteering with Milwaukee Animal Control. I look forward to assisting you and your cat at The Cat Doctor.

I joined The Cat Doctor team October 2019. I love how devoted The Cat Doctor is to making clients and their cats as comfortable as possible. I also love that everyday presents a brand new learning opportunity. 

Currently I have a 9 year old DSH named Yang. I also have a Cane Corso dog named Cupcake and a 3 year old leopard Gecko named El Chapo. 

I love the arts and have attended school for Illustration and Graphic design. Occasionally, I freelance commission for those as well. I enjoy cooking and baking confectioneries.

I am a student working towards my CVT, but potentially I'd like to pursue a career as a farrier or large animal technician. Later in life, my ultimate goal is to open a cat cafe catering to senior or special needs cats! 

I started with The Cat Doctor August 2019. I love being around animals, so getting to work with them everyday makes this job fun. I have two cats, a bearded dragon, and three mice. I am an art student and enjoy painting and printmaking. Art is my biggest hobby. I plan on working in the museum industry, maybe also combining animals and art by doing scientific illustration.
