Help more cats get the care they need
Cats are wired to hide discomfort, and most aren't seeing their vet often enough. Sylvester gives cat caregivers a science-backed read on their cat's comfort at home, built on recognized feline pain science, so they can notice changes sooner and act on them. For your clinic, that means more cats getting care and a clearer picture of how they're doing between visits.
There are three ways to bring Sylvester into your practice, whichever fits how you want to grow.
Connecting at-home comfort and veterinary care
1. Simply share Sylvester
Simply recommend Sylvester to your cat caregivers. It gives them a simple way to run Cat Comfort Checks at home and keep an eye on their cat's comfort between visits.
An easy way to get started. There is no cost and nothing to set up. You simply point caregivers to the app, and they take it from there.
2. Clinic Partner Program
Give your caregivers a simple way to monitor their cat's comfort at home, and see what is happening between visits from your Practice Portal. Your team can view connected cats, track Cat Comfort Check activity, and follow up with caregivers whose cats are showing signs of discomfort.
Partner Clinics also get discounted annual subscriptions to share or bundle into wellness plans, plus a done-for-you marketing content kit with ready-to-post social media, a newsletter blurb, and a caregiver blog with a pain-awareness infographic reviewed by our behaviourist, Frances Valentine, PhD.
3. Reach caregivers before they know they need you with Connect to Care
Let us bring new caregivers to you with Connect to Care, a done-for-you acquisition program built for cat clinics. We create, launch, and manage geo-targeted ads that reach cat caregivers in your area, including the ones who aren't searching for a vet at all.
When a caregiver runs a Cat Comfort Check and the results suggest their cat should be seen, your clinic is right there in the app with a direct booking link. Their activity flows into your Practice Portal, so new caregivers arrive with comfort history already attached.
You get monthly reporting and a dedicated campaign manager, and your team doesn't lift a finger on the marketing side. Connect to Care works on its own or layered on top of your clinic partnership.
How it works:
We run geo-targeted Ads that reach local cat caregivers, including the ones who'd never think to search for a vet.

The Sylvester Cat Comfort Check uses patented computer vision trained on validated feline pain cues to help caregivers notice when their cat needs your care.

Your clinic is the one they associate with that moment of awareness. Caregivers arrive informed, motivated, and ready to talk.
How Sylvester closes the feline discomfort awareness gap
Cats are well known to mask discomfort. By the time a caregiver realizes something is wrong, things can already be serious. The Sylvester Comfort Check helps close that awareness gap, giving caregivers a clear read on their cat's comfort and a way to know when it may be time to see a vet.
30% of Comfort Checks motivated a vet visit,
with 80% of those visits resulting in diagnostics/treatment.
For your clinic, that means caregivers who come in already engaged, already aware of what they're seeing, and ready to follow through on the care you recommend.

Why Sylvester?
Cats are instinctually wired to mask discomfort. By the time something is obvious, it's often been present for a while, and 70% of cats don't receive regular veterinary care*
Sylvester bridges the gap between home and clinic. Using computer vision and the same validated pain assessment methods your practice relies on, Sylvester translates subtle facial cues into clear comfort insights for cat caregivers and gets cats back through your door when they need attention. Based on user data, 30% of Comfort Checks motivated a vet visit, with 80% of those visits resulting in diagnostics or treatment.
When caregivers feel more confident in what they're noticing, they reach out sooner and arrive at your clinic with better context.

How veterinary clinics are utilizing Sylvester today:
Earlier detection of discomfort between vet visits
Better-informed client conversations during appointments
Increased client engagement with their cat's health
Proactive rather than reactive care
Why not just use Chat GPT?
Purpose-built for feline medicine. Unlike general AI tools, Sylvester's computer vision is trained on expert-annotated datasets of cats with various health conditions, the kind of specialized data that doesn't exist anywhere else. That means caregivers and clinicians are working from a foundation no general tool can replicate.
