I had to bring Sherbert in for a rabies shot for paperwork that I had to submit, not that I wanted to at all.
He turned into a vicious insane cat and the second vet (first wouldn't even treat him) had to come out with those big **** gloves you use for either holding molten glass or training hawks and eagles to hold him to give him a shot.
I don't agree with any vaccines other than the normal ones in the beginning. But I had no choice because I needed documentation that he had his rabies shot.
LOL...Kittehs can be fun at the vet...LOL..when I get my new rejects...I abide by all the rules...LOL...up to date on all vacs.....
then when I bring them in for their yearly check ups...I tell them oh, "I'm bringing Kiwi in because she is just not feeling right"...yada, yada. My goal is to get a check up and blood work done. They are happy to ablige (sp). Get the check up..blood drawn...and then I get the oh, she has not had her vacs. "Yea, I know...but something is wrong with her she could be sick.....you would not get your kid's vaccinated if they were sick, would you?" That is where I get them....I mix it up from year to year...always walk out with a check up and blood draw....no vacs. I'm happy.
Chance was dying of cancer....and they were still trying to get me to vaccinate...I went out of my mind in a nice way...had to summon up Aunt Bea...made them feel like **** for even asking......I do this all in the name of LOVE!
Please don't get me wrong...I am not judgeing anybody who vaccinates thier pets. That is what you are supposed to do by law but that is only for Rabies after a certain age...puppies
need alot if vaccinations.
Must have them for their wellbeing...but after a certain age it is not necessary....the vets will continue to push the puppy **** on your adult dogs...it is all about the money. Most of the time nothing bad happens...but sometimes it does and it is not pretty. Because I take on animals that nobody would take due to their health and without me it would be a certain death sentance.... and what it costs me to get them to a healthy state......I feel that I have a right to be a little shady when it comes to getting the rabies vac....because I personally feel they were not taken care of in the first place and vaccinations could do them more harm then good after the age of 7. A little FIY..... dogs are considered geriatric at that age in the eyes of a vet.
The city is only covering their ****...they don't care that I may have a dog that is autoimmune with a compromised immune system because it is old/not taken care of by somebody else. This is the way I look at it. When one of my dog's get sick...I don't have to wonder if it was because of a vaccination.
oh, yea....I forgot I said....don't get me started....LOL
Like I said not judging anybody....I have to do this because I truly take the animals that nobody wants...I have only had a few short years with some of them...longer with others...and the hardest thing to do it put them down...but at least I give them a lot of love and a little more time.
