Cat Clinic of Cobb Staff

	Dr. Patricia L. Lane, D.V.M. Dr. Lane is a native Georgian and a 1980 cum laude graduate of the University of Georgia College of Veterinary Medicine. After ten years of experience in a general practice (yes, she even worked with cows and horses) and three years as a veterinary nutritional consultant with Hill's, she was able to realize her lifelong dream of a feline practice. In 1994, Dr. Lane opened the Cat Clinic of Cobb. Why cats? "Cats are unique in all the world. They purr like people sing, just to make a joyful noise. They love you enough to share a mouse with you, then distrust you enough to hide their illnesses. I feel privileged just to hold a cat, because you're always holding a little bit of a tiger, too. Treating them is both a pleasure and a challenge."

	Dr. Lynn Bahr, D.V.M. Dr. Lynn Bahr graduated from the University of Georgia College of Veterinary Medicine in 1991. Her interest in feline medicine began in 1980, when she was adopted by a gray and white cat named Rudolph. It was Rudolph who inspired her to become a veterinarian with the goal of improving and enhancing the lives of cats and their owners. Dr. Bahr lives in East Cobb with her husband, their son, and three dogs.

	Dr. Meghan G. Maasen, D.V.M. Dr. Meghan Maasen is a 2010 graduate of Auburn University's College of Veterinary Medicine. Since a young age, Dr. Maasen has had a special love for cats (despite her allergy to them!) and dreamed of becoming a veterinarian at a feline-exclusive practice. She is thrilled that her dream has become a reality at the Cat Clinic of Cobb and can't wait to meet you and your cats. Dr. Maasen is a native of St. Louis, Missouri, but moved to Madison, Alabama in 1997 and quickly grew to love life in the Southeast, especially the college football. She shares her home in Marietta with her two cats, Dane (the definition of a mama's boy) and Darby (her wild child).

	Sylvia Fowler Sylvia has been in the veterinary field since 2001, starting out as a kennel assistant, working as a veterinary assistant, then moving to our receptionist position in 2006, and finally becoming our practice manager in 2011. She enjoys many aspects of the veterinary field, but prefers the felines because of their diverse personalities and very special ways of letting you know that "I am not getting enough attention!" Sylvia is married to husband Matthew with two beautiful daughters, Arielle and Gabriella. And of course the other family members include Stripes, Sadia, Chispa, Pez and Reeses (the kitties), and her doggies Hannah and Belle.

	Jan Jacob Jan Jacob became our office manager in 2007, but she joined Cat Clinic of Cobb with many years of experience. After over ten years in the human medical field, Jan spent sixteen years at Cats at Delk Spectrum, the first feline practice in Cobb County. "It has been very exciting for me to witness the changes that have taken place in veterinary medicine, and in particular feline medicine", says Jan. ?Indoor, well cared for cats can possibly live into their early 20's now, thanks to some of those advances in feline diagnostics. I find it very rewarding to assist not only the veterinarian, but also the owners and their special feline friends.? At home, Jan has four demanding cats ranging in age from four to fifteen years. They have her well trained in combing, petting, watching TV, and playing laser tag.

She is a 1999 graduate of Auburn University and a 2004 graduate of the Veterinary Technology Program at Gwinnett Technical College.

When Stacey is not caring for kitties (hers, fosters, and those at CCC), she is often reading about animals, medicine, or history, attending concerts, playing trivia, or spending time with friends and family.
