So no, My pets will go to the best vet I can find and ethnicity doesn't come into it. Qualifications and animal handling prowess are far more important.

682684 2008-06-27 08:06:00 Vet? What's a shotgun for! I wouldn't spend money on a pet, unless it was a working dog or some kid of rare exotic bird or something.

To me, it seems wasted money.

Hmm... yeah... I hope you don't have any pets :S Treat them like your friends and family! They are living things you know :illogical

Yeah, I really hope you never own a pet.

To be honest I'd much rather be a vet than a GP. Even if I had the money and patience and skills to be a human doctor.

682687 2008-06-27 13:54:00 hey between paying several thousand for an operation, a few hundy for an injection, or a few cents for a bullet, the few grand often isn't available and the other options both give the same (painless) end result

pets may be members of family, but they're still animals

Indeed, so are we.

They all should have more rights than many people (criminals etc).

If I spent 1 million bucks on my dog's life, I'd say that's money well spent.

And your not an animal...


As to the subject of said poll. I'm with most of the posters; skill over race etc. Although a good sense of humour would be great.

Actually got a reminder today to take my pussy to the vet... :o

The word animal has two versions of the same meaning. The scientific version says it means a multicellular organism that is not a plant due to certain characteristics.

The other version is usually used by those who refuse to accept that just because we are the smartest organism on earth, that we are also a part of the animal kingdom existing on earth.


or are you all vegetarians now?
What's that got to do with anything said so far?

Have some respect for animals, commercially useful or not. This isn't a hippie thing.
