My family and I went here to put down our cat. He was 16 and weighed 6 lbs, he was tiny. Very sick. I figured it should be an easy, routine procedure. He was supposed to receive 2 shots, one to make him very sleepy and one to put him to sleep. Instead, here is what he received: 1 initial shot (pissed him off, obviously), this shot didn't have the desired effect. So he received a 2nd shot of the same drug, which still didn't have the desired effect. He now received a 3rd (THIRD!!) shot of a different drug, which immobilized him, but he was still awake and growling. He was pretty much growling throughout the whole procedure. Finally, he received the final shot to the heart (which to me seemed like the Vet struggled to find). That's 3 shots more than my cat should have received. Poor animal had to suffer way more than he should have in his final hour. 4 shots total instead of 2!! The Vet also kept calling my cat "she". My cat was a he. And i corrected the Vet, who continued to call him "she" regardless. The girl helping also called my cat "she". So annoying. So...botched job putting down my cat. Awful having to see him go through that right before the end. Wouldn't recommend anyone go here to put down their animal. Read Less
