A few years ago, Dr. Will Powers woke up to find his house on fire. He managed to escape without getting hurt, but he and his wife lost their whole house and their two loving cats. It took him over a year to recover from this. After deciding to get his life back on track, he wanted to focus on the things that made him happy - helping people, cats, and video games. He decided to open a new family practice that was video-game and cat themed, with two in-house therapy cats that are hypoallergenic.

People doubted him, saying that the clinic would close, but they were wrong. After six months, the clinic is fully booked with 1000 clients, and even has a hefty waiting list. This kind of inspirational cat story is just the kind of wholesome thing we need to turn on our smiles and feel good for the day. Scroll down for a virtual tour of his cat and video game clinic below!

We can't imagine how tough it must have been to go through all of this. But you know what they say, from the ashes a phoenix can rise. And a phoenix certainly did rise, look at how much good this doctor is doing for his patients, and his cats!

They even have arcade games in the clinic?! We might be calling in sick a lot more once we change to have him as our doctor. Do you think we're too old to have a family doctor? We're still a kid at heart.
