I’m going to print this chart up (big from the other thread) and start handing it out to all the idjits wearing their masks in their cars or while walking outside.
Yesterday (and I’m not saying this for sympathy but for the stupidity of some of it) I had to put my old cat down. She was 17 1/2 and I had had her since a wee kitten.
I get to the vet, we wait in the car, a tech comes out and takes us to the euthanasia room, which has it’s own entrance and a little patio. She said you must gown up, put a mask on, and wear gloves. I said.. “How ‘bout we just do this outside in the patio since Covid doesn’t live in the sunshine for very long?” My idea was not taken well. I lied (but I’m not a derp) and said.. “I won’t wear gloves, my cat will bite.” The reality is I’m in So Commifornia, how many have gotten sick and died??) And you want me in a hazmat suit to put my cat down?? And really, gloves so I what, won’t get corona from the vet??
I took the hot, plastic gown off, didn’t wear the gloves, opened the door to the patio to let some fresh air in, vet came in with her mask half on, hanging down.
The stupidity... I can’t handle it anymore.

I’m sorry about your kitty. We still miss ours. We had to put her down about 12 years ago from kidney failure. I still wonder if it was tainted cat food (chinee?), even though she was elderly.
I’s so sorry about your cat, Petey. Our cats has lived about that same length of time and the house always seems so empty when they are gone. Its the worst part of owning a pet :(
