Since graduation, Dr. Luther has practiced exclusively in small animal, emergency hospitals, and specialty clinics in the Madison, Milwaukee, and Chicago areas. She became involved with Cat Care Clinic many years ago and over time, assumed ownership of the clinic. In 2018, Dr. Luther opened Cat Care Clinic’s second location in downtown Madison and in 2019, To Your Door mobile veterinary care was added to the organization. Today, the team is proud to provide a wide variety of veterinary medical services for cats in Milwaukee as well.
Dr. Luther loves interacting daily with long-standing Cat Care Clinic clients and friends, and welcoming new patients into the Cat Care family. She enjoys being actively involved with community organizations and local animal shelters. “I enjoy mentoring staff and visiting students and helping them reach their goals as many of my own mentors have helped me throughout my career. We have veterinarians and students from all over the country come to spend time in our clinic, due to its long-standing reputation for exceptional veterinary care and management,” she says.
Dr. Luther founded and is also active with Guardian Whiskers Inc, a non-profit organization that develops community wellness and literacy programs to help people, particularly children, by utilizing the human-animal bond experience. “Thanks to our collaboration with local rescues, other veterinary hospitals, vendors, and local business organizations, we have a great network to use for making a difference in our community, uniting people with the proven health benefits of pets.”
What does Dr. Luther love about Cat Care Clinic? “I never have a doubt that every CCC team member is looking out for the very best interest of each patient, as well as each client. We have a truly special caring, skilled team. With longer appointments and a focus on the whole picture of each cat’s health and home environment, we really get to know our clients.”
In addition to her love for nurturing grumpy cats, she harbors a deep-seated passion for travel. Exploring new cultures, sampling unfamiliar cuisines, and embracing the diversity of the world excites her. In February, she and her husband embarked on a three-week adventure to Kenya, an experience she describes as nothing short of extraordinary. The opportunity to observe lions, elephants, giraffes, and cheetahs in their natural habitat was profoundly affecting. Although their next destination remains undecided, the anticipation of another journey fills her with excitement.
Recently, she decided to install a bird feeder to entertain her cats, a decision that swiftly escalated. Now the owner of five bird feeders, she has also acquired a bird identification book, begun crafting her own suet, and invested significantly in birdseed. She insists, humorously, that all these efforts are solely for the enjoyment of her cats.
Her household includes three unique cats: Seymour Toes, a 16-year-old polydactyl long-haired orange male; Marvie, a 10-year-old three-legged tuxedo and a formerly feral cat still shy around his own shadow; and Stevie, a 7-year-old Sphynx. Seymour and Marvie were both orphaned kittens she took under her care. Stevie, known for her spicy demeanor, was adopted from the Denver Animal Shelter after being surrendered due to aggression. Despite her challenging behavior, Stevie simply required an understanding family willing to respect her space, which she found in her new home. Dr. Shere says, “three doesn't seem like enough cats, but the ones who need me always find me.”
In her spare time, Dr. Shine and her husband enjoy spending time with their six children and four grandchildren. They also are avid boaters and love to enjoy the beautiful Great Lakes.
Outside of work, Lorie enjoys spending time and having fun outings with her 2 children and 7 grandchildren. She also likes attending church functions, reading, doing word puzzles, cooking, and taking long walks.
Megan has 3 cats, Pinky (Sphynx), Gertrude (Persian), and Ivan (Sphynx). When she’s not at work, she enjoys spending time with her family, cats, and friends. She also enjoys traveling and scuba diving.
