Feline Friday: Wait! This Is The Wrong Doctor
Hey Raena, wha’ch’a doin’? Me’s thought you and mommy already went to the doctor this month.
Yeah sissy, when mommy said we were goin’ to the doctor the other day who would’a thought she meant I’s was goin’ to the doctor?. I’s didn’t wanna go to the doctor. Trust me, I’s told her all ‘bout it the whole way there too. Seems mommy saw me makin’ faces when I’s bit mine’s lip, and decided it was time to try out a new V-E-T to see ifin they could tell her why mine’s breath stinks even after havin’ mine’s teethies cleaned. As most peeps know, we’re not all that purrleased with our regular V-E-T, so mommy hoped this new one at the Ardmore Animal Hospital would be better.
Well? Were they Raena?
Hmmmmpht Not by a longshot, sissy. Let me tell ya’…We passed by ‘em 3 times tryin’ to figger out how to get to ‘em. Once we furinally got there, mommy couldn’t find a ramp or any handicapped pawrkin’. Can you believe in 2019 somepawdy would build somethin’ and not be handicap accessible?
C’mon mommy, let’s just leave. I’s don’t feel sick.
Really Raena, they’re not?
Nope sissy, they’re not. After climbin’ 4 steep steps with me in the stroller to get to the door, mommy asked where their ramp was and got told they don’t have one. Then, mommy looked down at the floor while we stood waitin’ to be checked in and found she was standin’ in dried up smeared poop. Somepawdy had an accident and nopawdy bothered to clean it up. ‘Stead, they just let it smear all over the floor and dry up. Mommy said that should’a been her furst clue that we should have turned ‘round and left, but we were already there, so she decided to stay. After we got checked in, they put us in a room right away. Befur lettin’ me outta the stroller, mommy checked out the table and nearly gagged. Seems the poop offender must’ve been in that room, cuz it was all over the table too. Mommy found some disinfectant and paper towels and cleaned the table off.
Oooooooh Raena, that sounds disgustin’. Me’s can’t believe nopawdy bothered to clean the table in the room. What ifin whatever that kitty or woofy had was contagious?
That’s what mommy said sissy. Needless to say, the floor was filthy too, so I’s wasn’t allowed to get on the floor. When the doctor came in, she seemed nice enuff. That is till she wanted to take me to the opurratin’ room to knock me out to steal mine’s bloods. Mommy told her that she doesn’t let us out of her sight, so the only way I’s was goin’ anywhere was with her in tow. But, she didn’t want me knocked out just fur blood stealin’. So, the doctor said she’d try to do a blood draw in the room. That’s when things took a turn fur the worse.
You’re kitten? How could it pawssibly have gotten worse Raena?
Well sissy, the doctor purrtended to try to steal mine’s bloods while the tech purrpussly pinched me and made me jump. Mommy couldn’t believe what she saw till they did it a second time. That’s when mommy snatched me away from them and said we were leavin’.
Now can we leave mommy?
They pinched you?
Yep sissy, they were bound and determined to get me away from mommy. I’s bet they were gonna try to kill me or somethin’. There’s no tellin’ what goes on in the back where they won’t let peeps come. Mommy said based on the filth in the rest of the place, there’s no tellin’ what the back was like. And she doesn’t trust any doctor that be that secretive. And once they pinched me, mommy said she ought to have their license. She also exclaimed loudly as we left, “If you’re afraid of cats, you should have just told us that. You’re never going to have an easier cat to draw blood from than the one you just tortured.” Needless to say, we didn’t really learn anythin’. Altho’, mommy did find out that I’s got a tooth on either side of mine’s mouth that bites into mine’s lip and gums every time I’s chew. And I’s got a bit of gingivitis. All I’s can say is that I’s hope I’s don’t have to go back to the V-E-T any time soon.
We’re outta here!!!
Me’s sorry they were so mean to you Raena. Me’s glad mommy didn’t let ‘em take ya’ to the back tho’. You might not have ever come back. Unfurtunately, me’s sure mommy’s already searchin’ fur another V-E-T. Any time mommy thinks there’s somethin’ wrong, she does whatever she has too to get us better.
Ya’ reckon mommy’s pullin’ a fast one and she’s takin’ me to another V-E-T today sissy?
Nah Raena. Me heard her on the fone with the farmacy. Ya’ll are fur sure headin’ to her doctor today.
We better be sissy. I’s gonna link us up with Comedy Plus fur Feline Furiday befur I’s go. It’s s’posed to storm all day again, so are you gonna be okay here by yourself?
Yep Raena, me’s gonna take a nice long nap. See ya’ll when ya’ get back. Don’t furget to stop and get some treats now ya’ hear?.

That is awful. Is there somewhere you can report them to? I am sorry your state is lacking in decent vets. I hope Raena is OK, maybe the gingivitis causes bad breath? XO

You should report the unsanitary conditions. If you’re on your town’s Nextdoor dot com, you should warm people. Even Dr. D. can draw my bloods on the table in front of my peeps and I’m half feral.

That is a terrible experience. At our vet they get our blood in a minute or two, get our weight and we are right back into the room with Dad. We understand them drawing blood in another room as many people do get very nervous at that and pets can be calmer when not around their pawrents. I know Dad is always amazed at how well behaved we are at the vets and he cant get us to do anything at home MOL.
Miss Fitz says thank mew so much for coming to her pawty so we will come to your pawty fur sure. Purrs friends

Oh my whiskers, what a horrible experience at the place with the stabby people. I wish you lived close to us, we have the best v-e-t-s and if it wasn’t for The Female Human stuffing us in a carrier and making us sit in the metal moving machine, we wouldn’t mind going at all.
Sending purrs, head bonks and love to you all,

Always go with your first instinct is what we say. Should have turned around and left earlier. I never heard of a place so untidy as that. Hope you find a good vet soon.
