We had to have one of our farm cats put to sleep last week    due to somehow having broken her shoulder.  Today in the post, came a lovely card from the Vets with a hand written Condolenses message in it.   How lovely was that  .

Gosh, I bet thats rare. Never heard of it before anyway.
 
Well done that vets

Sorry you lost your cat  sounds a very painful injury.

Some practices really make you feel a sense of worth, well done them

We had one too ...... when our old dog was PTS ....... that must have been at least 8 years ago.  Mind, he had been a well paying customer for the last few years of his life. 


Sorry about your moggy

Sad about your cat but what a lovely vet you have. 

[Rosemary]

Sorry to hear about your cat 

Both our vet practices (Broadleys and Parkside) do this. It's a nice gesture. Wonder if they do it for sheep...

[Sylvia]

Our practise does this too

Sorry to hear about your cat

Our vets do that, and our previous ones.  Just a nice thought really.

What a nice gesture.
 
Sadly, the only thing we get in the post, from our vet, is the bill.

[jaykay]

What a nice thing to do 

But I'm very sorry you lost your cat 

[Blinkers]

Thanks folks for all the messages.    Rosemary - no, sheep definately don't get the same treatment  LOL.
We took the two cats on when we moved here just over 4 years ago and I believe both originated from the CPL.  Both have always been very friendly but have always lived outside and have certainly never visited the vet since we've been here....and I doubt the previous owners ever took them as they both had slightly wonky limbs from where 'he' had clonked 'em with his car!!!!    I think Ginger must have fallen or something because there was absolutely no sign of the hair having been broken in that area...it was very strange.    She was a good hunter, albeit it not catching the critters we wanted her to catch    but we do miss her being around.   Kitty doesn't seem to miss her though - typical cat, me, me, me

awww sorry to hear about your cat Blinkers 




Our vets send out a card with a packet of forget me not seeds in too.


Also an excellent vet

Thanks again all.     The other one (who never liked Ginger anyway!!!!) hasn;t left the feed shed since?!?!  She's sleeping on the pig nuts just like Ginger used to do.   I guess she's either thinking she's missing Ginger OR (more likely) she's thinking   Weyhey, got the place to myself now and I can do EXACTLY what I WANT ...... bless her

That was nice of the vet, I had to have a cat PTS on new years day and was so delighted to get a card from the vet, simple thanks go a long way and I suppose the more we respect our vet the more trade they get!
That did sound nasty...poor cat!
