    Default Another question for the animal pros-Vet Clinics

    I just took my babies to the non-profit Wellness center for boosters (earlier this afternoon).

    Afterwards, my little black fuzzy pervert started throwing up and getting diarrhea. I called the clinic and they told me to call a full-service clinic. That is just fine, those directions are written everywhere.

    I called up a place near my house. I don't know if the person answering it was the vet, but he sure was a jerkoff. At first, he started bitching about people going to Animal Trustees. He complained that he was always cleaning up their mess. Then he went on about people who took their pets there have no money. Personal insult. He was going on and on, until I interjected. Asking him if I should monitor kitty a bit longer or bring him in, he condesendingly told me that perhaps I should do that. No answer really.

    I told him I usually take my other cat to another Dr, a little farther away. He told me I should go there. Then hung up.....

    WTF? Was he rude because he thought I wanted to take my kitty to him for free emergency care? Of course I would pay for it!

    Do non-profit animal Wellness clinics have a bad rap in the veternary community because they are cheaper?

    My kitten could have been dying, and he totally blew me off. Should I complain or call back the clinic tomorrow?

    So I watched him for a while and he started purring and eating, but this could have been an allergic reaction, and this is the closest full-service clinic to me!

    Any advice on this amimal lovers?

    Oh, that really makes me mad.

    What an asshole! The only reason I can think of that he would be that rude on the phone is that he is fat and mean and can't get laid and is bitter about life in general, cause that is REALLY uncalled for!

    I would most certainly complain, well, call back tomorrow and in a calm manner tell someone else that dude buddy was extremely not helpful and was rude when you called with a sincere concern.

    I'm glad fuzzy kitty is ok. At least you know where NOT to take the babies in the future.

    Vaccines can have that reaction. He may also be listless and run a low grade fever. But they can cause allergic reactions and that guy was a DICK for treating you like that. I'd DEFINATELY complain. There was no cause for that.

    Most low cost clinics dont give a lot of actual care...vaccinate, spay/neuter,out. Thats why they are cheap. But I've yet to see one that was BAD. I've seen more VETS that were bad..botched surguries, swindling clients, etc...

    If you got his name, call back. Ask to speak to the hospital manager. Complain.
    What he did could have cost a life. NOT ok.
