We lost our 2nd cat, Muffin, to a vet’s incompetence as well. He treated Mr. Muff for a disease that he did not have, endocardial hypertrophy, when he actually had an allergy to the vile concoction known as “fish” in canned cat food, which made him vomit every time he ate it.

Trusting the vile, incompetent “doctor,” we destroyed his kidneys ourselves by giving him the prescribed medication, which being unneeded, sickened him.

Stupid us! We sussed that all out later during the postmortem analysis of the whole situation with our new vet, the wonderful Dr. Brisbin of the Benicia Cat Clinic in Northern California. Unfortunately, by the time Dr. Brisbin treated Muffin, it was too late. He loved Muffin almost as much as we did, and he came to our home to kill him when he was suffering and could not be saved.

I still hate that rotten vet, Dr. Teslaa. I hope someone sued him out of business, because I tried to look him up three or four years ago, to see if he were still practicing, but he was not. Thank God.

Thank you so much for your prayers for Lucas. He’s a good boy.

I learn something every time that I lose a cat. Too bad it's too late to save them.

This vet is AAHA accredited. I have no idea how that can be but we were told by them that we weren't "regular" patients. After 20 years. Guess that means that we didn't have enough money for them.

Dammit it all! Several Vets are truly unqualified! In El Cajon, CA, when the children were young, I found a wonderful Vet, a young woman who even treated our birds! She was so sweet and tender with the children’s Parakeet (Billy was a talker and so full of personality), that I ended up taking all of their pets to her. I think young women Vets are the best! She sure loved animals. Her office was full of animals of all types and breeds.
