[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In my experience, OP, yes many vet practices are over capacity right now. Even the ASPCA poison control hotline is running really long waits. (I discovered both when my dog counter surged cooking food that was full of onion.)

What was most difficult for me is that I recently had to work really hard to find a vet to euthanize my very elderly cat that had been on hospice care. Both Friendship had Lap of Love had been providing care, but they were running 3-4 day waits for euthanasia. My spouse and I spent a morning calling vet practices to ask them to please euthanize our cat that day, which was a pretty terrible way to spend our last hours with a family pet.[/quote]

We had the same issue with euthanasia. We ended up having to take her to a vet full of barking dogs to make poor old cat’s life ending time even worse. [/quote]

We had a similar experience with euthanasia with our dog who was on hospice care. [/quote]

Same issue with our cat. We had to do it at a vet's office, which I hate and which I did not want for my pet. But, like you said, Lap of Love was running days behind. The entire situation with vet care right now is horrible.[/quote]
