I took my cat to the vet for the first time today. She was adopted a few weeks ago (about 4 years old), and apparently you should take cats to the vet.

It wasn't a bad experience, per se, but I definitely got the impression that that vet was interested in a strong hierarchy and emphasized control. This probably makes sense and is a healthy thing when dealing with a pet, but I lived for too long on the west coast.

He said, and I'm paraphrasing a little but the gist is the same, that he "was going to ask me to do something starting today and then every day until death do you part, and that is to brush her teeth."

Really?

I've never heard of this before. She is missing some teeth. But really?
