Sick Baby Kitty

its been a hectic stressful weekend, my baby kitty got really sick, he can’t pee which apparently is life-threatening condition in felines, something about kidney failure, anyways, he’s been in the emergency vet hospital since Saturday on various drugs, with cathers and IV fluids and today they referred me back to my vet for surgery. Now I love my vet, Dr Rothe and the vet techs there are wonderful as well but his receptionist could use some help in the sympathy department, if her schedule is thrown out of wack, let me just say she can be quite a bitch. The emergency vet told me to get my kitty over to my vet right away and had actually talked to my vet as well, who said to bring him over asap. But when I got to my vet, the receptionist was confused and made me wait 1/2 for the doctor, honestly I had at that point, had it, I personally think that a life-threatening problem is more critical than a wellness checkup……so my poor kitty is back in the hospital til Wednesday, hopefully with surgery he’ll be able to pee again and be a happy healthy kitty for long while to come….

While I’m on this subject of my vet, like I said I love Dr Rothe, I’ve been taking my animals to him for over 20 years and my animals are odd, everything that could be weird will come through my door and he has always been very helpful in trying to figure out the reasons, ideas and has even listened to my alternative ideas for therapy when he’s not sure. He explains everything that is going on and actually listens to his people and pet patients. He’s definetly a animal person!

On the other hand, there is Dr Halperin, I don’t like her very much, I’d prefer that I don’t see her, she can be quite condenseing and rude. Maybe its just her personality, maybe she’s not a people person but my animals don’t seem to like her very much either if that’s any indication. 

Overall, I get Disney Pet Hospital 4 stars most of the time, I’d give them 5 stars but I have to deduct for Dr Halperin and the receptionist issue.
