| That reminds me. Would any decent cattery accept cats who weren't up to
date with their vaccinations? I doubt it.
Goldy.

| Nope, they shouldn't.
We found one out Hook way that did and I pity any kitty
who stays there, we rang and tested out whether or not they'd put up
a non-vaccinated couple of month old kitty without papers and they would,
the kitty in question I was asking about is definately a cat flu carrier
and my guys still needed treatment after having come into contact with
her when she was stressed out (which being put in a cattery does to most
cats) even though they had their jabs. Cat flu innoculation only
reduces the chances of a cat dying from it, it doesn't stop them getting
ulcers all over their mouth and throat and nose and being unable to eat
and getting dehydrated etc etc and basically going through a lot of pain
and suffering unecessarily.

| I found a dog that had been hit by a car leaving it with a
nasty gash on its hind leg visabily down to the bone, about
6 or so inches long.
A lady who came by recomended her vet, we took it to him.
Although he did give it some anti-biotics without charge
he would do any more because "who is going to pay for it".
I then phone my vet who was on call and he agreed to see
the dog. When we arrived my vet I said that the dog wasn't
mine and asked who would pay for it. The vet told me that
the RSPCA would pay towards the bill and they would foot the
rest if the owner couldn't be found. Th evet thought that
the dog would loose its leg, but luckily that wasn't required
and is fully recovered now.
By chance I was walking past a house later that day and found
the person who was looking after the dog. It bolted when he
earlier opened the door.
Give the poor dog its dues, only once did it bark when being
lifted to or from the car, mostly just quietly wimpered, but
didn't really appear to be in shock.
The moral of this story;
The more expensive vets can aford to take in cases where cost
is not going to be completely met and owners can't be found.

| 1383.15 | maybe the property is more expensive in reading than in old basing :-) | KERNEL::COFFEYJ | La Feline Flooz - a unix cat | Wed Apr 16 1997 21:31 | 15 |

Hmm, not necessarily, if you noticed I was saying my vets are very
reasonably priced, just clearly staffed by people who are in it for
the animals too not just the money. They actually turned me down when
I said I'd cover the bills for the cat who was brought in if the owners
couldn't be reached and they needed cover for surgery, they said it was ok,
said they or the RSPCA would cover it anyway.
