Sylvester.ai Launches Connect to Care to Help Veterinary Practices Grow Feline Visits

Sylvester.ai has launched Sylvester Connect to Care, a client acquisition program built to help veterinary practices engage more local cat caregivers and bring more cats in for timely care.

The need is clear. Roughly 70% of cats do not receive regular veterinary care, even as cat ownership climbs and overall clinical visit growth is forecast to stay flat or decline through 2030. Feline visits are one of the strongest growth avenues available to practices today, and Connect to Care is designed to capture them.

Through the program, Sylvester.ai builds, launches, and manages geo-targeted digital advertising around each participating practice. The ads invite local caregivers to run a Cat Comfort Check, which uses patented computer vision and established feline pain science to detect subtle facial cues tied to comfort and discomfort. Caregivers can then book directly with the clinic, and their Cat Comfort Check history is waiting in the Practice Portal before the appointment.

Early results are strong. 30% of Cat Comfort Checks motivated a veterinary visit, and 80% of those visits led to diagnostics or treatment.

"Our Connect to Care program drives substantial financial returns for veterinary practices by significantly increasing the number of engaged caregivers and feline patients served," said Susan Groeneveld, founder and CEO of Sylvester.ai.
