Review content:
As many have said they are expensive, which I knew. With that I would expect them to be good at what they do. One time my aunt's cat had a strange rash, and they could not identify what it was. This was not a huge deal, and eventually it had went away on it's own.\r
\r
The thing that enrages me is when it came to my nine year old cat. He had something very strange occur. One of his eyes was fixed in a dilated state, and the other one was normal. I took him here to figure out what this was. They asked me if anything was abnormal. Once they said that I realized that over the past few months he had always been acting starving. Even at times when he didn't eat all of his food. The reason we did not do anything sooner was because my parents said we could not afford to, it was probably nothing. He had always been skinny. The vets seemed to think nothing of this. I also told him that in the past few days he had thrown up. This also seemed to be dismiss. We left the vets that day with no answers and a $300 bill of tests. They seemed clueless.\r
\r
He got worse within the next two weeks. He barely ate, threw up about every other day. Slept alone and on floors instead of right next to one of us like he normally did. His eye seemed to look worse. He also acted weak and lethargic. We took him back and after another $300 in tests, a full body x-ray and more, still did not get answers. Finally a few days later he suggested maybe a thyroid test. After hearing this, I immediately googled hyperthyroidism. Every single one of his symptoms matched up with this. To a tee. Even worse, It says it says that it is extremely common in cats, especially after the age of eight. \r
\r
It makes me very mad that a vet that should have a degree and know a lot about cats could be so clueless on the subject. After the test, he came back with high degrees of hyperthyroidism. It bothers me that it took so long and so much money in unnecessary tests and could be figured out with a simple google search. We gave them $600+ dollars in which the necessary test cost around $80. I can see maybe testing a few of the others, but five points clearly wanted to milk this for all they could. Now he is blind in one eye, and I just pray that he is not to far gone at this point because under normal circumstances, hyperthyroidism is extremely treatable.
