Report
Called first thing in the morning with a sick cat, possibly UTI. hasn't eaten, drank or urinated in over 12 hours- they tell me it's going to be 5 days before they can see him. I understand Schedules and appointments but there doesn't seem to be any room for any type of walk-in or emergency care. Very disappointing.
