Title: What Does Your Fursona Think of the Vet?
Post by: Rocco Rex on April 29, 2016, 04:42:23 AM: Saw this on another site, and thought I would create it here. So, what does your fursona think of going to the vet?

Rocco is apathetic, just another thing on his schedule. UNTILL, he sees a needle. Then, he has a major problem.

Post by: Armalite_ on April 29, 2016, 06:41:46 AM: I stopped going after mom stopped making appointments for me. Now that I'm old, I just pretend everything is cool and hope I don't get sick and die. :)

There's no escaping the dentist though >.> I hate that guy. Always yankin' on my teeth and tryna tell me I should think about getting my wisdom teeth pulled when they're already grown in and chilling there doing their thing and he's trying to hustle me for $5000 to operate on something that isn't needed. YA RIGHT BUD.

Post by: Armalite_ on April 29, 2016, 07:13:29 AM: Ok I don't wish death upon my dental hygenist lol but I just don't like the idea that I have to go to get teeth cleaned every 6 months. I can't blame them for trying to make an honest living but I have no one to blame but myself when my gums start gushing blood and then I'm asked how often I floss LOL "not very often, why do you ask?" xD

I tell them to keep the flouride now. I get enough of it in my tap water and I dont like leaning out of my truck to dry heave from swallowing traces of flouride liquid after I leave the dentist on my way home. It's made going to the dentist only half as bad.

Post by: Rocco Rex on April 29, 2016, 07:26:41 AM: I said beat up, not kill. And that is one way I'm different from Rocco, I try to remember it is needed and they don't deserve pain.

I don't approve of all the fluoride we get either. I too refuse their fluoride.

I won't force this part of history on Rocco, but I had to get braces for impacted canines. I will NEVER like or trust anyone who messes with my mouth.

Post by: Armalite_ on April 29, 2016, 07:37:41 AM: I'm lucky. So far, I've never needed braces, fillings, surgery, operations, or anything cut, removed, or otherwise, replaced.

My days are numbered lol

Post by: Panda on April 30, 2016, 04:06:32 AM: I'm terrified of doctors IRL, so I'm sure my fursona feels the same ;P
Dentists are fine though

Post by: Alistair on April 30, 2016, 04:17:59 AM: Stubborn, mouthy, and generally aggressive. I don't trust doctors all that much and neither would Alistair.

Post by: Alistair on April 30, 2016, 05:43:07 AM: Unless it's the dentist. I love the dentist.

Post by: jellyfishee on May 01, 2016, 06:07:33 AM: Bored of the waiting room, but super eager to show off everything that is wrong with her to the doc.

Post by: Nutmeg on May 02, 2016, 10:30:32 PM: I imagine Nutmeg would only go to the doctor when she's seriously ill, otherwise she'd deny there's anything wrong with her out of laziness. She loves the dentist though, she's proud of her teeth and loves to chatter away while she's in the chair X3

Post by: Firox on May 03, 2016, 08:40:00 AM: Never really thought about it

I like my doctors in the real world, so I would assume that Foxy/Firox wouldn't have much issues if the doctor/vet would be friendly.

No dentist for me or Foxy/Firox! I will struggle to get away, even claw or bite XD

Post by: Blaze on May 03, 2016, 07:46:45 PM: My fursona has some of my fears, so she's very afraid of needles.

That said, she only goes to the vet when she absolutely has to, other times, she avoids them like the plague.

Post by: Cecilia Peromi on May 03, 2016, 08:42:41 PM: I don't mind the vet. It's just like a normal doctor for me. Although I hate it when he talks about my weight...
Title: What Does Your Fursona Think of the Vet?
Post by: Farewell on May 03, 2016, 11:20:50 PM: Eh, I don't mind really. The doctor is fine. I usually get check ups, blood samples, I've gotten two casts in the past.
However the dentist is a different story. Me teeth are sensitive, and I don't mean getting hurt but I get cavities easily, and it's pretty common. I have to brush and floss a lot... I also have a crooked tooth that bothers the hell out of me. I'm getting that fixed soon I'm getting impatient though.

Post by: Wolfie the Umbreon on May 06, 2016, 11:25:09 PM: My fursona usually doesn't need the vet, except when he gets very sick, though this almost never happens, due to his strong nature.

Post by: Ori on May 07, 2016, 04:33:58 AM: So long as the doctor's prove to be effective my fursona would be happy.
Title: Re: What Does Your Fursona Think of the Vet?
Post by: Luggz on May 08, 2016, 10:31:34 AM: The doctor is scared of Luggz. He may not have learned it at medical school, but he knows better than to piss off a giant fox. XD

Post by: Argrath on May 08, 2016, 10:47:09 AM: I don't know if the doctor knows how to treat a dragon. But if he does, hmm.... It should go Okay I guess.

Title: Re: What Does Your Fursona Think of the Vet?
Post by: Cecilia Peromi on May 08, 2016, 08:26:21 PM: I think you're safe Zal. Veterinarians aren't supposed to just do that without warning. If comes to that, you'll be able to sue him.

I can say for a fact that I have never heard of that happening to someone. And, as Cecilia said, you could sue. He/she would probably be arrested too.

Post by: ZalTheRaccoon on May 08, 2016, 09:54:19 PM: Well that's good, I've never been to one before so I only hear rumors >.>

Post by: DestinyUnleashed on May 15, 2016, 04:55:02 PM: Destiny would probably have to be dragged in to the doctor's office kicking and screaming. She would probably bite him.

Post by: Rob_Silvermyst on May 19, 2016, 04:21:01 AM: Robert could learn many things from the vet, as well as teach some things in return. He'd have no issues in seeing one for medical care, though with his access to divine magic, there wouldn't be much need outside of preventatives like heartworm medication and vaccinations against rabies and distemper.
