Monday in the Office

Ok, so there is a pattern here! If you are new to reading this, please read everything I've written beforehand.
Thanks!
Monday was only slightly eventful.  I saw a lot more cats today than usual.  i usually see about one cat, maybe two.  Yesterday I saw four.  One cat, Oreo, had ear mites, a tooth abscess, and a bladder infection.  Another cat, Sissy, had well developed cancer, and another, Sassy, had FIV.  FIV stands for Feline Immunodeficiency Virus, aka cat AIDS. According to Doc, the vaccine is great and works incredibly well, but the actual treatment for FIV does practically nothing.  So - a note to all of the cat owners reading this - VACCINATE YOUR CAT!!!!!  Sassy had to be put down, and was the first cat I saw get put down. So, all in all, not a very good cat day.  The other cat had a normal exam, and was perfectly healthy.
I also saw a lab yesterday. He was hyper. I've had a puppy and that dog had more energy than Domino ever did.  He was really sweet, and just wanted to lick me and Becky (Monday's vet tech).  His name was Tahoe.  I remember Doc commenting on how big he was "If Tahoe get's any bigger does he become an SUV?"
Unfortunately there were no horses on Monday, so there is nothing to report from that district.

I'll type up today's activities right after I post this and you will get to read all about them!!! Thanks for reading!
