Dr. Erik Ask’s destiny as a feline only veterinarian was decided very early in life by his first Siamese cat, Flicka, as his crib was her preferred sleeping spot.  Since those early months, Dr. Ask’s life has been cat oriented.  His cat preferred life was made official in 2004 when he received his Degree in Veterinary Medicine from Cornell University.  He has practiced feline exclusive medicine since graduation in several exceptional feline hospitals.  During this time, he had the unique opportunity to hone his medical and surgical skills and incorporate the latest veterinary technology into his medicine.  He became the owner of Cats Only Veterinary Hospital in 2008 after purchasing the hospital from Dr. Carolyn Wooley.

Dr. Erik Ask lives with three cats (Gizmo, Abby and Zoe) and two dogs (Brittany, Prince).  When he is not practicing medicine, he enjoys cooking, camping, hiking and reading.
