Wasn't until after the follow-up for the tail amputation surgery that a visiting vet at the practice pointed out that my healthy tomcat was, in fact, a spayed female. With a strange cat recovering from surgery I hadn't gotten all that close to check it out myself and it was a very fuzzy cat.<br /><br />That was the last time we saw that particular vet though. I figured I'd take my business to someone who didn't sex animals by pure conjecture and assumption. <br /><br />But we still called him a he and just told people he was our transgendered kitty.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4990890778229196792.post-27266482330053575812012-02-10T15:07:50.971-08:002012-02-10T15:07:50.971-08:00My favorite sex change was a kitten named Spiderma...My favorite sex change was a kitten named Spiderman that belonged to a 4-year-old boy. After the exam and breaking the news that Spiderman was in fact a girl, we heard him crying and pleading in the lobby with his mom to not change the name. She was doing a great job keeping it together. I don't blame him though; Spiderman is an awesome name for a cat!vetladyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03424604878040008564noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4990890778229196792.post-55785591732538832892012-02-02T13:36:43.998-08:002012-02-02T13:36:43.998-08:00I follow Mark Abraham (@marcthevet) on Twitter and...I follow Mark Abraham (@marcthevet) on Twitter and he recently posted this gem:<br />'Client just now was convinced his female puppy was male.

Without fail, "Are you sure Teddy is a boy?" One new doctor spent about 5 minutes groping him and saying "Come on buddy, where's your junk? Ooookay, there it is. Yup, boy." <br /><br />It irritated me that when I had two (one passed away) people were always "Oh right, two boys because you don't tons of babies." or "How do you keep them from doing what rabbits do?" And I'm all "They're neutered! And if I had a female, she'd be spayed! Because that is what responsible people do with their pets! And because unspayed does mark their territory far worse than males and then get uterine cancer and die."Amberhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10628793092000540848noreply@blogger.com
