But check out that Ryan vet hospital website: Fish? People bring *fish* to the vet? How... how would you even know if a fish is ill? Because at my house the first clue was always, uh, upside-down at the top of the bowl.

I just took Maggie to the vet, she had to get shots and was not a happy camper. i still think you should have named your chinchilla Mittens McGyver You’re just jealous no one wrote an EP about you.

I think declawing and neutering Mike's cat cost more than my hospital visit for Madison. Babies are -mad- expensive, but they also have insurance.

Penn's benefits paid for my school and the 24-hr ER gave me a very flexible schedule to fit my classes in. I otherwise have no interest in pursuing Veterinary Medicine. It's good to hear that you had a great experience. There are a lot of good people there, but it can also be a little crazy. Like this: http://www.dovate.com/blog/2007/03/26/work-2/ As far as fish, we once had a koi in for an ultrasound and possible surgery. Why? The fish cost $50,000 and had a breeding potential of up to $500,000 worth of baby goldfish... I mean koi. The ultrasound turned out well and surgery wasn't needed.
