I adopted her because no one else would and I have been constantly disappointed and frustrated by how limited my options are for her. My kitty, Bella, is a hugely important part of my life--as special to me as anyone's dog and just as much a constant companion and I want for her the same treatment for her ails that I see for dogs every day. It angers me when someone brings in their skin-and-bones cat and complains that they think their animals may be losing weight and when our doctor asks how long its been going on they say "Oh..a year or so.." all nonchalant like its no big deal. I just want to smack those people. GR. I’m a vet tech and I have a kitty with NUMEROUS health problems.
