I have a 12 y/o cat that won't eat canned food anymore. The problem seems to be associated with her chronic dental problems, but the vet can't find any reasons as to why the cat won't eat canned food. She only has a few teeth left, and there doesn't seem to be anything wrong with them. She had...

Awhile back I had a cat that died from what we believed was cancer. The vet offered to do a necropsy at no charge. I just looked at the cat's records and there's a note where the necropsy results were written that basically says that the owner declined a biopsy. That's not true. No one even...

There's this new vet clinic that's been open for several weeks. I saw on their website that they'll be having a Grand Opening Event soon. What in the heck is a Grand Opening? I understand when a shopping store has one because they have big sales and stuff. But what does a vet clinic do at a...

Thanks for the responses. I don't think the vet was trying to be deceptive, but I think maybe it should be the responsibility of the assistants who are in the exam room to mention any changes in policies. At the very least they could post a notice on the wall of each exam room. I think the...

Hello. I'd like to get advice about my recent experience at the vet clinic. I'll make a long story short, but can provide more details if needed. Basically, I took my cat to the vet's for an exam and a senior screen (blood work and urinalysis - I do these tests yearly). In the past, if it was...
