Well, I actually already have a good vet, but something occurred recently that has me thinking I need to search for a new one.
Niles went in for his final round of distemper last Friday. My mother took him for me, since I still had to work. Niles is now a little over 6-moths old, and looks very un-neutered
We have two vets at the same office, and the younger of the two saw Niles that day. He was very insistent that Niles should be neutered. My mother told him that he is a show cat and cannot be neutered; our breeder would kill us! The vet responded to her that he NEEDS to be neutered; the world has enough babies.
My sister is slowly starting to set things up to breed Turkish Van cats, but Iâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]m worried that our younger vet might not agree philosophically with breeding animals. However, I am reluctant to switch because the older of our two vets was recommended to us by our uncle, who bred schnauzers for fifteen years. I never considered this being a problem before, but how did you breeders here go about finding a vet that approved of breeding?
Also, I live in an area where annual cat licensing is required. However, I have no idea where to find out about licensing breeding cats. Should I just ask my veterinarian? Iâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]ve received some pretty bogus information in my search; even heard that 3+ cats in my county is considered “hoardingâ€!! Iâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]ve tried to look online, but have not found anything that lists the laws.
