Jessica Fine, DVM, MS
Feline Veterinarian
Feline medicine has always been Dr. Jessica Fine's passion. As a young adult, she read the book “All My Patients Are Under the Bed – Memoirs of a Cat Doctor” by Dr. Louis J. Camuti, and a dream was born. Being an integral part of the Uniquely Cats team is her dream come true. She has high hopes of continuing to push the boundaries of conventional veterinary medicine and nutrition.
In Dr. Fine's early career as a vet technician, she had the good fortune to work with Dr. Sally Haddock, a pioneer among women veterinarians and author of “The Making of A Woman Vet.” Working in Dr. Haddock’s clinic, the St. Marks Veterinary Hospital in Manhattan, gave the not-yet-Doctor Fine five years of rich experience with diverse pets—and their families—and crystallized her desire to become a full-fledged veterinarian.
In 1996, Dr. Fine moved to Fort Collins, Colorado, to pursue a degree in Veterinary Medicine at Colorado State University's College of Veterinary Medicine and Biomedical Sciences. She received her Master's Degree in Anatomy and Neuroscience in 1999, then went on to earn a Doctorate in Veterinary Medicine in 2003.
Dr. Fine has been practicing small animal medicine, surgery, and dentistry since 2003, collecting the best practices and honing her expertise in feline medicine along the way.
Dr. Fine is owned by her three cats: a Cornish Rex named Kashi, a Sphynx named Squidward (thank you, SpongeBob!), and her newest addition, a Sphynx named Fleur whose middle name is ‘gravity’!
When she is not working, Dr. Fine enjoys spending time with friends, entertaining her cats, running, hiking, doing yoga, camping, reading, watching movies, biohacking and longevity research.
