Monty

He was convinced that it was the best thing for his pet.

He had never owned a ferret before. The vet who checked him out suggested he be vaccinated, as one can never really tell if his pet has been in contact with a rabid animal. He went on to say that he highly recommended that he be surgically neutered. However, as a loving owner, he wasn’t happy with the idea of putting Monty through the ordeal, if it wasn’t entirely necessary. With the ferret still on the inspection counter top, this turned out to be a long debate about the rights and the wrongs of it. Also, there was always the risk that the animal may not survive the operation. Throughout this discussion, he could see that Monty was becoming more and more restless. It was as though he knew what was being talked about and wasn’t happy with what was being decided.

When the day came, apart from a lot of struggling before the needle did its job, the surgery went well.

When the owner picked him up later that day, Monty was still quite drowsy. The vet recommended he keep him in for a day or two. When they got home, his pet slowly came round and became his old self again. He noticed that after spending some time licking himself, the animal began whining to go out. On the vet’s advice he was careful to keep him indoors.

This went well, until a momentary lapse on his part by not fully closing the back door when he came in from the garden. At this point, Monty flew across the back lawn, jumped the fence and took off.

Knowing that the surgery was only two blocks away in that direction, he decided to give the vet a call to let him know about Monty’s behaviour. Although he was thanked for the call, he got the impression that the vet didn’t take any of it very seriously.

It’s always easy to be wise after the event, but having received the call at three that afternoon, when the vet heard scratching at the back door of the surgery just a few minutes later, he really shouldn’t have opened it!

  1. Today, I went to the beach front with my kids. I found a sea shell and gave it to my 4 year old daughter and said “You can hear the ocean if you put this to your ear.” She put the shell to her ear and screamed. There was a hermit crab inside and it pinched her ear. She never wants to go back! LoL I know this is completely off topic but I had to tell someone!
