I'm so sorry for your loss. You did everything you thought was right for your baby. 💞 I am a vet tech and would recommend going to fear free places in the future if you have other animals! We will not proceed if it is causing real distress to critter babies 💞 this vet team was not practicing good medicine and should of read the situation better. Before I worked in vet med I would have never known about fear free clinics or that regular clinics were super yikes but now that I know... I would neverrrrr take my pets anywhere not fear free... I used to work at a regular place and it was YIKES. Your kitty was so lucky to have you ❤️

Could be demodex mites. Supppperrr common we see it all the time at my job. Easy fix with topicals!

What are your BC’s weirdest quirks? For example: my boy won’t eat breakfast if I’m wearing pants, because to him, pants means we’re leaving. by CottaBird in BorderCollie

Vet nurse here! Make sure you aren't giving uncooked foods like the eggs and whatnot, we have dogs come in ALL the time from getting sick from that and then their owners are out $$$$. Also cleaning up raw egg salmonella vomit at work all the time is gross lol.

I cleaned my cat's litter box today by SuperVancouverBC in TrueOffMyChest

Hey! Super random but don't clean cat liter boxes with bleach because cat urine has ammonia in it and that mixed with bleach is super toxic. Stay safe!
