Got a new vet today and he refused to perform cystocentis due to Melbcat having had 2 recently (?). Sent us home with pain relief to get a sample the traditional way despite how hard and unreliable it is with her.

Cut to Melbcat being very sooky and unwell tonight, getting a sample hours after closing but being unsure when she did it, and having to uber the dodgy sample in tomorrow while exhausted with no supports on. I’m going to ring the clinic on opening tomorrow and ask that antibiotics be dispensed when I bring it in because she absolutely has a uti.

If he had just listened to me she could have begun treatment tonight šŸ˜’
