We adopted a kitty from a shelter after we moved into our new place that allowed pets. He had been declawed by previous owners, and was relinquished because he developed litterbox issues after they got a new puppy (was fine before that).
He developed a UTI in the shelter apparently that might...
... I just found this site and this thread....
I definitely wouldn't go to that vet ever again! Poor Cindy!
As for the vet's office that called asking if they wanted him neutered while he was under anesthesia .... I guess I can agree with that since neutering is such an important operation...
