Subject: Check-Ups
Oh vet time, this terrifies me! Been through it
ALOT with Sash. Sometimes probably weren't necessary but me being the worried
mom over everything I probably rushed him in alot of times when nothing was
found wrong anyway, thank god. I try to not do that anymore for fear of the
stress it causes him. Only once a year if I can help it. Sash is a real
sweet boy, but he certainly doesn't take well to being there, although he
doesn't mind the car ride at all. I also always give extra vitamin C and his
vita-mineral mix for stress and take some cat treats to put in his carrier and
a jacket/blanket too in carrier with some catnip doesn't hurt. And of course
pray there are no dogs there! Lisa
General question
for the group, how often do you take your positives for check-ups and how
thorough are they? Also, if you don't vaccinate, how do you protect from
airborne or countertop bacteria and viruses?
I think Franklin
should get a check-up, but I'm leery of illnesses he might contract at the
vet's. Thanks.
