This lil 9 week old guy adopted us 4 weeks ago. Showed up on our doorstep, crying and scared. He took to us immediately, and because of an impossibly dumb rule I made years ago, he now lives with us permanently. We named him Critter, and according to the vet (and the size of his paws), he’s expected to reach the 17-18 lb range. He has become incredibly affectionate, and being my first ever pet (in my late 40s), I can’t get over just how much joy he brings us. I’m in love.
I have yet to upload it anywhere, but one of our cameras captured a rather remarkable moment when Critter made his move to join our little family of two.
Anywho, new to the world of cats, and so far it has been the most rewarding and fascinating experience of my recent life. Hope to share more of Critter’s future with the community.
this is debatable. just avoid banfield clinics if you can and you’ll be fine. source: a very famous and well-connected veterinarian told me. you all know his dad.
What is a banfield clinic and why should we avoid them?
Big Venture Capital funded corporation went around buying a bunch of small practices everywhere and creating a network. like there are Banfield clinics in petcos and shit. They are generally the ones pushing insurance (that is so not financially worth it when you read the fine print). They are not good to work for, as a veterinarian, tech, office staff, you name it. They just bleed their patients and employees dry.
That’s the short of it but i can ask Dr K next game night he hosts if there’s anything i missed
