Personal Consumer Issues • Vet estimate for my daughters’ cat

Again .. for those who think the vets are doing this unnecessarily and for the money for them ... logically explain my direct cat experience over the last 30+ years of cat ownership.

During that time I've usually had three cats at a time. A total of 8 different cats.

I had Vet 1 at the beginning of the time period and Vet 2 for about the last 10 years.

Vet 1 recommended the procedure on one of the cats. He'd seen 5 of them.

Vet 2 recommended the procedure (now twice) on one of the cats. Her practice had seen 4 of them (overlap of 1 being seen by both).

So 2 procedures recommended for 8 cats.

If all the allegations are true that I've read being made here ... why were only 25% of my cats recommended for this procedure?

The only commonality between the two cats who did get the procedure which I think is highly coincidental is that they are / were both female and swirly three color (black / brown / orange).

After I wrote that I had to do a search and was happy with the results:

"The good news? Almost no health issues come with your cat being a tortoiseshell, and that’s because tortoiseshell is a color, not a breed."
