I am only one person. Sometimes you have to wait for good service.

Meet one of my patients. He's a champion!

Humphrey and me.

Thank You Linda Childs for the wonderful card. We miss Chance too.

This is a cat that has been treated with over the counter flea meds such as Hartz or sargeant's or zodiac spot on that contain permethrin and are designed for d...ogs. They should NOT be used on cats. Every year, many cats are poisoned because they are treated directly OR come in contact with a dog that's treated or the dog's bedding after the dog has slept in in after treatment. Would NOT have this in my house for ANY pets. Problem is , Pet store staff and general store (walmart/ canadian tire/ grocery/ hardware store) will sell these and not be trained to ask you if you have a cat OR even be aware they will kill your cat, or harm your dog sometimes FYI-yes, the cat recovered after decontamination of the skin and intravenous medication and IV fluid therapy . But it's much better to prevent poisonings isn't it? and FWIW-if your child gets poisoned, sick, injured, I hope you take them to a medically trained person (ie doctor or hospital), not sit at home and hope for the best. Same with your pet. If they are poisoned, sick, hurt, arthritic, infected or start doing abnormal things, wherever you are in the world reading this,......... please don't sit at home and hope for the best or google it....... take them to a medically trained person ( a veterinarian), not your uncle's sister's neighbour's aunt's friend who thinks they know animal medicine or have an opinion on medicine . could cause harm / death to your pet www.highburynorth.com See more
