Hi I'm so sorry to hear about your cat. I'm a vet nurse and we always sent out cards, we really do mean it especially if it's a well known pet whe came in a lot. A favourite patent was put to sleep about a month ago. Very elderly etc but I cried as I wrote the card to his family. I'm such a wet blanket!

That is so nice  :)   Our previous vet used to send cards out but this one doesn't appear to - having said that, I took the body of my poor run over cat to the vets to be cremated as I couldn't bear Mr Fox digging this one up too. As yet, they've not invoiced me and it must be 6 weeks now?

I like to think she enjoyed her life with us here  :fc: :cat: .     Kitty STILL hasn't left the feed shed  ???  but seems completely happy to sleep on the pig nuts (use the litter tray....or fairly near it !  :innocent: ) and take her time over her food.   Strange cos she was the one who used to appear at meal times and then disappear for the rest of the day  ::) .

Sorry to hear about Ginger.   :bouquet:
We had a card when we had our GSD PTS.  I thad been written by the vet who did the deed, who is a friend of ours, and said that Gurney was one of the gentlest Shepherds she had ever met.  It made us feel heaps better.
