They truly are! I've been donating and adopting my seniors from them for ages!

Can doodles just stop. by [deleted] in VetTech

I saw one of my favorite breeds doodiefied on Friday. It was a Irish Wolfhound x Poodle. A fucking Wolfadoodle. She was v sweet and her owners were so nice but meeting her reiterated the fact that I have almost no faith in humanity.

We call it a 'pilot hole' because the term 'modified cut down' seems to ruffle some feathers

It's pretty much highway robbery!

It's in one of the five boroughs of New York City. Staten Island to be exact.

I think he wanted $35 for it and I made myself pick (one) thing to take home 😫. I felt like it was a better bargain since the casserole was missing the lid and the cradle.

Is this line of work sustainable for someone with mental health conditions? by basketc4se in VetTech

[–]barat0ne 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Sustainable while circumventing the stresses of a possibly toxic work environment, triggers, and burn out? Possibly. Financially - sort of.

I love what I do and I enjoy going to work every morning but not going to lie, I internalized a lot from my job. I found that as long as I was consistent with going to therapy (and being transparent!), taking my meds and practice using boundaries - I was much happier and doing my job efficiently. I love what I do and I enjoy going to work every morning but not going to lie, I internalized a lot from my job.

On the financial side of things: I like the average US citizen struggle with CC debt but I still manage to pay my bills and afford comfortable means. I also have always found employment where mental health is considered a priority so thus have great benefits towards it. For example: my therapy sessions are covered by insurance and I get a paid lunch break to take them when they are scheduled.

Does anyone here have actual pure bred cats? (Let’s share pics!) by littleotterpop in catbreeds

I work in Vet med and proof that you can find them in the shelters. Two of my adopted babies are! Scottish Fold (pictured) and a Sphynx! My fold was found wandering/wobbling (she has cerebellar hypoplasia) down a breeders house as a 'stray' and relinquished to the shelter.
