He was meowing so forlornly at me the entire drive there and didn't want to let go of me when we got to the vet. It was just so sad and pathetic at the same time. Tug the heartstrings, Raspy!
I'm this big tough guy and it almost made me cry

Surgery is scary no matter what. And cats seem to be worse about the 6th sense when you're bringing them in for "altering." Critter did much the same thing when he went in for *snip snip* but when we got him out of his animal carrier he went wild trying to jump around the exam room. The yeowling in the car was him mourning the loss of the family jewels, and I guess Critter just wanted to put up one last fight to keep them Kaglaaz How'ler fucked around with this message on 10-14-2004 at 10:57 AM.
Now when we bring him to the Vet he charms the socks off the Vet and the Vet's Assistants. Giving them hugs and purring his fool head off.
Raspy will be fine, just try not to laugh too much at his cone.

My cat is the exact same way. He can be a little selfish pistol when it's just him and me, but once he's at the vet he is working his best moves on the nurses.
They always compliment me on how well behaived my cat is.

If someone chopped your nuts off you'd try to stay on their good side lest they remove anything else, wouldn't you?
We are going to have to take our kittens in soon too. I am not looking forward to it, I hate to see them scared and in pain.

When we had my dog neutered back in 1982, when my mother went to pick him up, he literally leaped into her arms when he saw her. Only time he ever jumped into anyone's arms.
When he got home, he did hide from us for a few hours... Lord knows I would have, too...

There's no real pain with it, they are put asleep and given pain medicine. Most of the "Im in pain" meowing is just them complaining 
When my cat wants out, he can do the "I'm a nearly dead cat please let me out!" meow routine with no effort. Reynar fucked around with this message on 10-14-2004 at 02:44 PM.

That's what they tell you, but I hear that they haven't had any humans test out the procedure to make sure.

I'm telling you...get the doctor to zap them in the nuggets with a laser.
I don't know why I just pictured this big Panda in a labcoat, do the Doctor Evil "Laser" thing with the hooked fingers. Thanks, Mad Scientist Deth!
On a happier note (for me) ...Im disecting a cat in anatomy... its awesome!!!
I love domestic pets (cats, dogs, birds, rabbits, etcetc). I'm not a dissecting kind of person. This is why I'm not a doctor or a vet! 
I even offered to supply the body myself...
My TA didn't appreciate my commentary, but was very impressed by my precision... we skinned the cat the other day, I hate my lab partners!! They are just not careful...
Doesn't anyone else, excluding me, watch operations on television?
Does no one feel my pain?!?

I have this odd feeling that i'm going to have to disect some rat/cat brains and learn to do Stereotaxic Surgery on rats at some point in my undergrad/grad career for Psychology. It's not gonna be fun. Just the sound of the dental drill boring through the skull makes me queesy.

Critter is a traitor to kittykind. He *gasp* greets you at the door, he greets strangers at the door. He WAY too loving and affectionate for a cat. Rarely is he ever aloof. He even comes to you when you call his name.
Many of our friends say he's not a cat, he's a dog that purrs!

Do new people normally start a thread introducing themselves? I am unaware of the "initiation" phase.
If there's one person on the forums you should never take seriously, it'd be Nem. Black fucked around with this message on 10-14-2004 at 11:58 PM.

Over the past couple of years it has become the fad to do an introduction thread. It really isn't necessary, alot of the regulars never made one themselves. However, it is a nice thing to do, so people can get to understand who you are.

And generally lets you avoid a lynching and such because you start spouting off random things that people aren't expecting to hear or that might be taken out of context given that you're an unknown entity entering the environment.
Make one if you wanna.

Our old dog Corky Did not like the Vet at all after he was fixed. Was a war to get him in the office, he broke the danmed choke chains every time we went (And these were sone heavy duty chains 
) And When the vet got near, well the vet becam e classified as dog food pretty quick.
Out current dogs could care less though.
