Bad Care for Boarded Animals
Thursday, August 04, 2005
We took our cat to the Rock Road Animal Hospital when we had to go out of town because she was diabetic and had to have twice a day insulin shots.
Upon returning from out of town and picking up our cat, I immediately noticed that only one of the syringes for her insulin injections had been used. I spoke with the clerk on duty and was informed that they didn't give her any injections after the first one because she hissed at them.
I was very dismayed and asked to speak to a Vet to find out what the consequences would be. I was told none was available, but "the cat was fine."
Our cat went into kidney failure a week later and while unable to prove anything, we feel that 4 days without her insulin injections had a direct corrolation to this. We ended up having to have her put to sleep.
We were unsuccessful in getting any further in our inquiries with the Kennel manager.
I would never recommend boarding your beloved pets here.
