My vet cant take Pagan for her spay until Wed 6th May!! I told the vets that she will have probably started another season as she was showing signs of starting. They are too busy to take her sooner. I cant take another season as my flat mates complained a lot the last time as she was very noisey for a week! My vet said that if she started to be noisey that i was to take her into the practice and she would do the trick to calm her. As in make her htink she has been mated by using a sterile cotton bud. Has anyone had this done to their cat before!?
-
Find a new vet! :shocked: >:(
Cats in heat will mate several times over so cant see how this will help. Did an actual vet say it or was it reception?
-
God no, I haven't even heard of this :-:
I would see if another vets can do her sooner :)
-
Yeah i thought it odd! I might do a call around and find another to do her asap. I can tell she will be in full heat within a few days. Iv heard of it before, but only through an online search!
-
Oh it was the vet that said it. Il need to wait until tomorrow to call around other vets. Too late now.
-
Ive read about this :shocked:
I wonder if it actually works but more to the point, i wonder what the CAT thinks about it!!! :scared:
-
:rofl: just posted similar thing elsewhere, you need to use a long soft feather to tickle her fancy ..and gently pinch scruff, this will NOT stop the season but it will give you a couple of hours peace from her calling.
-
Sigh. I think il just call around other vets even if its a bus journey away.
-
i have heard of breeders doing that. Fingers crossed you can find another vet who will spay her
-
Teresa's "trick" worked on Ruby last night (even though used paper tissue instead of feather :shify:) Back to "calling" this morning though :-:
-
I have heard of breeder using this trick, also using a neutered Tom and letting them have "safe sex"
I would definately try and find another vet.

She wants some more tickling :rofl: goes to show the only safe long term cure is spaying.

Wonder if "the trick" works on Husbands :rofl: :rofl:

:evillaugh: Well i found another vets that will take her on Monday. So thats a little sooner anyway. Only thing is that i drop Pagan off at the small vets near me and then they take her in a car to another vets to do the op and then drive back to the smaller vets. Im sure its standard practice but i hope its not too stressful for her.
