Another reason to hate PETA:
You all know I rescue dogs and cats. The local SPCA has been effing me cancelling my appointments for 3 months so I was forced to use the PETA SNIP van. They make my appointments and tell me the usual stuff, no food or water after 10pm and pay in cash. I show up on time bring the cats and one of them had a runny nose, just getting over an upper resp. infection. SPCA has taken them and fixed them like that with no problem. It's risky but they did it. Anyway......I paid PETA my 70 bucks and they tell me "Oh no, we can't do this cat because it's nose is too runny" OK, what about the other 2? "OH, they're fine"
Fast forward to the time I'm supposed to pick them up. I show up and they tell me since the kittens had been with a "sick" animal, they must be sick too and they didn't do the surgery or shots on ANY of my cats and oh by the way, you don't get your money back. I call up the woman who makes appointments, the one in charge of the SNIP van, and she tells me that those are the breaks, I should've known the rules, and if I make a fuss about this she'll quit giving ALL the rescuers a discount so I'm out 70 bucks and I'm supposed to be OK about it.
I hate dealing with the devil. But the vet there is such a pro the kitties I get done there heal quickly and bounce right back from the operation.
FARK PETA, I'm having steak AND wearing leather.
