While the topic of bad vets....

This same vet I worked for never gave the animals pre-med because it cost him money and once spayed a 4mth old cat who was waking up on the theatre table. He kept suturing and the cat was flinching every stitch.

Maybe you don't work for such a bad vet after all...but I would still look around. Hope that info didn't offend anyone.
