Kitty's owner said "They wouldn't do the dental unless she had them all because they kept her overnight in the hospital".
Greedy vets put cats at risk for no reason
Pookie - Some opt for vaccinations being given in the tails now.
Pet South - Wishing Teddy an "easy" dental tomorrow!
Thanks Pookie and Lola. We dropped him off this morning. Will not be calm again until we get him back tonight. Always worry when they need to be sedated.
When vaccines were given between the shoulder blades, these cancers were inoperable because they would grow into the spine, ribcage, and chest. This became such a serious problem that now it is recommended to give the rabies vaccine in the right hind leg, and leukemia in the left hind leg—so that when a tumor does develop, the whole leg can be amputated and thus the cat’s life can be saved. I guess the FIV vaccine will have to be given in the tail, so it too can be whacked off in the event of cancer.

FYI, she discusses dog vaccines in this article as well.
