Today I phoned my vet to see how much I owed him I was thinking about 70 euro but because he wasn't at all happy with how the op on Popeye went he won't take any money for that well I can't have that he will have to get something coz he still done his best now I have a issue with another matter but that's for another posting when IV recovered from another loss I will do an update in a few days still a bit raw but we can't turn back time how decent of him not to charge me

Today I called in to the vet and chatted the receptionist and I told her me and that vet are in a long road together some days will be great some will be sad but we both will be doing our best and nobody can work for nothing so I put 30 euro in the till and i hope it was enough to pay for some of the work he had done for popsey I couldn't face him with my next problem if I hadn't made some effort

Vets & their staff aren't all money grubbers, they care for the animals. Your vet sounds lovely. On a similar note I had some missed calls & no message from the vets last Thursday & Friday but no-one knew, from my records, why (they have a central telephonist for all the 5 branches). The Friday one was after I'd popped in to the one just round the corner to book Osiris in for his bloods & they'd said they'd let me know if there was a problem with the newly installed machine as they hadn't tested it yet, so I mentioned that when I queried the subsequent missed call but net the call no problem there. Finally on the Friday I managed to answer the phone with a person on the other end (I'd heard a dog once!). It was the receptionist at another branch, the one I mainly used before they opened the one round the corner. Apparently her 17 year cat had gone to Rainbow Bridge & she remembered that my cats had been taking Nutraquin+ & she had some that she no longer needed so wondered if that was still the case & if so would I like the open packet. We then chatted about her cat & I found it was renal issues that finally took him & I reminded her of Penny (she fought against the disease at & finally went to Rainbow Bridge from that branch). The receptionist than said that she'd got an unopened tub of Ipakitine powder (bought on-line so couldn't return it) & if I used that for Osiris then she'd be glad to give it to me. She would not take any payment. She sent them with the vet to the new branch (the 2 branches share the same vet - different surgery hours) so I was able to pick them up when Osiris had his blood tests. This really was kind of her to think of me, we'd often chatted while waiting for the cats appointment. Its a small, older branch & has limited hours (even less since the new one opened) & only does consultations & has no surgical facilities only what can be done in the consulting room & not many patients apparently who have Nutraquin but even so .... She's on holiday this week but I'll go into that surgery next week & thank her properly.
