[lost nvegas]

I wanted to share what happened to me and The Boys yesterday.....It is funny now, but a little scarey yesterday when it happened......sorry it is a little long...
   
  Well the lice is gone......Now we have mites............Ugh! What next? What next is that we are in northeastern Montana where the vets work on horses, cow, dogs and cats. Not guinea pigs. I called the vet (60 miles away) to say I wanted Ivermectin. The secretary gave it to me. I called my vet in Las Vegas and was told not to give it to them, because I could kill them. So I call avet in North Dakota (90 miles away). Thought it would be great, she had seen gp's before the word Kritter was in the name......yadda, yadda, yadda.....  Well we get there. Driving up, it is in an alley, overgrown weeds everywhere, junk all over.... I am thinking what the hell is this....But... my boys needed a vet. We get in there, dirty carpet that hasn't been cleaned since 1953, a tied up dog in the corner, barking away and kittens running loose. My bedroom was bigger than the whole office. Oh! did I forget to say the smell was overwhelming. Well I am still thinking my boys need a vet, she is
 certified. When we get there she is supposedly "called away for an emergency". We are able to leave them while we go shop...Soon as I drive out I call and say, she is not to give them anything until I get back. I SHOULD'VE TAKEN MY BOYS WITH ME!!!!! I go to the pet store to buy them some treats and ask about this vet. I should've known by the look on her face that something was wrong. She proceeded to tell me she has a reputation of putting animals to sleep to clip them. I look at my dad and said let's go. We are breaking them out. The vet wasn't supposed to be back for a couple of hours still. So I call and guess who came back early. The freakin vet. I tell them we are on our way. We go in to the examining room to wait. I start to hear arguing through the wall. The vet proceeded to tell her assistant that she couldn't see us because she is having a nervous breakdown. He tells her we are from out of town and she says she doesn't care and to tell us to come back. I am
 telling my dad this, because he is sitting across this little room and can't hear through the wall as I can. I am freaking out, wanting to make a run for it. My dad finally walks out and tells them we just got a phone call that is mother went into the hospital and we had to go NOW! (She was already in the hospital, so it really wasn't a lie). So the assistant comes out and apologizes and we take the boys out of that HELL HOLE!!! When we were leaving the pet store, we were able to get ahold of another vet clinic. A REAL ONE! and made an appointment for an hour later. So after shots, ear cleaning, teeth clipping and baths for them all, my boys are doing great...( Comet has been sneezing, so keeping an eye on that).....What a nightmare.............Take me back to civilization......
