Play Paws & Claws Pet Vet Online

Paws & Claws Pet Vet is one of those GBA games that feels oddly relaxing, even when you're rushing to figure out why a virtual dog won't stop scratching. You start in a small clinic with just a few basic tools, and the first few patients are simple—maybe a cat with a cold or a parrot that won't eat. The real challenge comes when the cases get weirder, like a hamster that somehow swallowed a key.

The pixel art is charming in a way that makes even the sick pets look cute, though the interface is a bit clunky by today's standards. I remember misdiagnosing a rabbit because I clicked the wrong tool, and watching its health bar drop while I scrambled to fix my mistake. The game doesn't hold your hand, which makes the small victories feel earned.

If you're into slower, methodical games where you actually have to think through problems, Paws & Claws Pet Vet has a weirdly satisfying loop. Just don't expect it to be as deep as a full simulation.
