m... Really? That's weird to me. The only things the vets DID do atmy last hospital was the exams and surgeries. We did everything else - grooming, treatments, blood draws, etc. -L. My vet even shaves my kitty's poopy butt and washes the vomit out of her carrier (Kitty always gets car sick). My vet's office is quite small, though, with just the vet and a receptionist. I don't even think there is a vet tech, unless the receptionist is one. rona -- ***For e-mail, replace .com with .ca Sorry for the inconvenience!*** |

I've never taken a cat to the vet for grooming so I don't know who does that. Our vet has drawn the blood for blood work. The tech probably is involved with taking X-rays but the vet is there as well. I know that from the report I got from the vet about the difficulty they had with Tiggy last time (my poor problem child). I have no clue who does what when the animal is admitted. I'm sure the tech is much more involved then. |

The only time I've seen the tech handle any of our cats was to weigh them. Same at my vets' practice. The tech weighs the cat before the vet comes into the examining room, then the vet takes over from there. The vet will call in a tech to assist, sometimes - w/holding the cat for bw for ex., but that's it. Otoh, sometimes I just do the holding. Cathy -- "Staccato signals of constant information..."
