Mishi was a regular goon at the vet's office yesterday, meowing up a storm, getting all the other cats in the waiting room singing along with him. It was quite a cacophony! My vet's office is SO disorganized! Yikes! I called before my "appointment" (I've learned to call ahead to see how late the vet is running) only to discover that yet again, they didn't have us on the books! They said they were able to squeeze us in at 3:00 (20 minutes after the appointment I thought we had), so I took it. This was around 2:15 p.m. The story they're giving me is that in the half an hour between the time I called and the time I arrived at the vet's office for our "appointment" they had an emergency. They know I live half a block away; they have my phone numbers, they know making cats wait stresses them out even more. Did they call to let me know? Of course not! Once again I had to wait a whole hour for my "appointment."

I had taken yesterday off work to attend to a myriad of personal phone calls and was going to try and squeeze in an emergency dental appointment for myself too. The vet's office nixed that plan.

Mishi is doing much better, although he still hasn't gained any weight; in fact he lost an ounce. He was MUCH perkier, though, so things are looking up. They did more bloodwork and urinalysis; I should get the results today.

I think he's going to pull through once again. The only reason I will still go to this vet is because it's so close to home which is less stressful on the cats. The management's lack of organization leaves a lot to be desired and is very stressful on me as I cannot count on them even having appointments on the books that I've called to confirm more than once.
