My uncle is a longtime veterinarian and he always is telling me about people with too much money wanting surgery for their fish, or a $10,000 operation on their cat, who will probably die within the next few years of old age anyway. Maybe I'm just a cynic   |
Funny story. My girlfriend's dad once was pissed off because there was this hawk hanging around the back yard, and he liked keeping quails around by leaving feed out, so he didn't want the hawk eating them. So he takes out a pellet gun to scare it off, only he shoots the fucking thing right in the wing, grounding it instantly. We feel bad and take it to this vet who works on wild animals, saying that we found it injured, so he fixed the thing up and let it go when it was healed.
Actually I guess that's not that funny. Anyway, who knew the old man was a fucking crack shot. *shrug*
