So, go down there... find where the Vet lives... and perform a little attitude surgery with a 2x4.

Agreed. If you care about the animal at all then it deserves to have a familiar comforting presence with it at the end, not alone and terrified in a strange place filled with strange people and strange smells. If you drop a dog off to get euthanized and then leave then you shouldn't be allowed to have another.
I saw Chelsea Handler do standup and she would only sign books that were purchased at her show. Buy a book, get a bracelet that got you in line to have the book signed. Many people showed up with books that they bought before the show date and were turned away. I thought that was pretty shitty to do that to her…
how is it culturally insensitive. Her culture is one of not touching others. So not really insensitive at all. It is more insensitive that a majority demand that the minority (her) change for them. She is going to a country rife with disease why risk getting it just for 400 dollars. This whole cultural awareness…
It's amazing that anyone would want to be photographed with Lavigne. Granted, I've never been to Brazil, but I assumed they had a 6 hour time difference. I didn't realize it was 2002 down there.
I understand where you're coming from. But if you've got a pet so sick that every moment of life is pain leading towards their eventual death, wouldn't you want to spare them that pain?
Yes it's a different issue if the problem is something like "we can't afford to fix that broken leg". But humane euthanasia from…
I has to have my best sweetest puppy put to sleep last Monday. It was the hardest worst thing ever. I'm just starting to not feel nauseated remembering holding her little body while it went cold. As hideous as that was (and she had kidney cancer and was peeing blood and had become miserable), I still can't imagine…
Pets are family to me. I don't kill family. Period.
The fact that we insulate ourselves so much from death that we can't be with our goddamned dogs when we have them put down is absolutely tragic. After a life spent as your companion, you just leave them to die with a stranger? Weak and disgusting.
You stay with your pet when he or she is being euthanized. I don't care that it is "too hard" for you. You suck it up, hold your pet, give kisses, and stay until the very end. Then you go to the beach and scream for as long as it takes. You do not leave your pet behind to be euthanized alone. Period. (Also, this vet…
"I know someone who actually used that as an excuse for missing work" this sounds crass.
I had three miscarriages in varying stages of pregnancy, and only one required more than just a doctors visit. I worked through two of them. I totally can see why you doubt her, but it is such an intense personal event, that I would rather just believe her than not give her any sympathy.
As others have mentioned, there doesn't necessarily have to be a lot of "follow up." I recently had a miscarriage and though I did have to go through a D&C, it was an outpatient procedure that didn't take too much of a physical toll on me. The mental suffering is what caused me to miss seven days of work.
As many as a fifth of pregnancies end in miscarriage, and no followup is necessary for a complete miscarriage. There can be complications that require treatment, but in most cases the only real impact is emotional/psychological.
It's like a video palindrome!
And these cats are in sales:
Oooh, is this how toilet paper rolls get made? I bet there is a factory full of hundreds of cats who just paw at cardboard tubes until they have produced a full roll. Then they say mowr and the roll gets carried off to inspection and the next tube comes down the line. Do you suppose they have a union?
Apparently in the eternal "Over vs. Under" toilet paper debate, this cat is in the Under camp, and takes it upon himself to fix toilet paper rolls that are installed the other way.
That's not "be kind and rewind." That's pure passive aggressive behavior. It's "okay, I'll clean up my mess, but I'll do it wrong so you know how much I resent you."
Maybe the thought it was going the wrong way before and has fixed it.
