DAVIS, Calif. — Two experienced veterinarians have opened a new feline-only veterinary clinic in Davis, California, aiming to transform how cats receive medical care. Dr. Julie Cole and her husband, Dr. Chris “Shac” Shacoski, launched Cat Tales Feline Health Center to provide expert, stress-free treatment tailored specifically for cats.
Located at 606 W. Covell Boulevard, the clinic combines advanced veterinary services with a calm and welcoming environment. With deep roots in feline medicine, the couple brings a wealth of expertise to northern California’s veterinary scene.
Dr. Cole, a board-certified specialist in theriogenology (reproduction), and Dr. Shacoski have also built partnerships with institutions like the UC Davis School of Veterinary Medicine. This collaboration helps ensure their feline patients can access even more specialized care when needed.
Services at Cat Tales Feline Health Center include:
-
Wellness and preventive care
-
Diagnostics and surgery
-
Dentistry
-
Behavior and lifestyle counseling
-
Nutrition guidance

The clinic focuses on longer appointment times to allow for thorough exams that address both physical and emotional health. It also offers efficient online scheduling and personalized treatment plans. The environment is designed to be peaceful and low-stress, and the clinic has earned both Cat Friendly and Fear Free certifications.
“After years in traditional veterinary practices, I saw the need for a more calming experience for cats,” said Dr. Cole. “We want them to feel as comfortable as possible while receiving care.”
Adding to the center’s unique offerings, Cat Tales also houses Tabby Tea Cat Lounge & Adoption Center — the first cat lounge of its kind in Davis. The lounge offers a relaxing space where visitors can interact with adoptable cats.
With a blend of cutting-edge care and cat-focused design, Cat Tales Feline Health Center is redefining veterinary standards for feline patients in northern California.
