Kelly H. - Clinic Manager Emeritus
Kelly started out as a client with a very sick kitty. The more time she spent at the
clinic, the more she decided that she loved the environment. Kelly left the corporate setting
she was used to and became part of the vet world instead — and loves it.
Kelly lives in St. Louis Park with her husband and two Pomeranian dogs.

Laurie - Clinic Manager
Laurie grew up in the Brooklyn Center area and has always loved animals. She started working in a Veterinary office in 1979
where she worked as a receptionist, assistant and technician. She worked there on and off for the next 30 years while her 4 children
were growing. She settled in the front office as it was easier to reduce her hours in the summer at that role. In 2008 she moved to
a clinic in St Louis Park as a receptionist, before taking on the Practice Manager role. She is very happy to become part of the
City Cat Clinic family this year, 2023.
Laurie lives in Maple Grove with her husband, her son, and dog named Mauer.
