Hi Everyone, I saw a post a couple days ago concerning the "curly ferrets" (which by the way I thought was too funny) and I wanted to chime in with my story as well. We all need a laugh, right? A couple years ago when I was working for a vet clinic east of me, the clinic got an emergency call concerning a found ferret that was in the park under a bench during the hot of the summer. I was still pretty new to tech work and this was my first call, so I alerted the vet on call (who was also pretty new). Well it was a busy night and we had regular appointments left and were pretty busy when we both heard the door. The woman came in with a box and a bunch of blankets and we could see this little body underneath on the blankets but couldnt' quite make it out. Well I was finishing treatment on the inpatient dog while the vet went and treated symptoms for the emergency. Well it seems like the treatment on my dog was taking forever but looking at the clock, it wasn't much time passed. So I finished and brought the dog (oh, the dog that I was treating was flea and tick infested) back to room 1. Well the emergency was in room 2 when the vet (I cannot remember the spelling of the name of the vet off the top of my head), told me that the ferret was coming around nicely. He asked me to fill meds for the dog in room 1 while he rehydrated the ferret. Well I did that and checked the woman out for the night. I think at this time an hour had passed, maybe more. So finally the vet comes out after i finished checking the dog owner out and he says, that has got to be the strangest looking ferret I have ever seen. I went to go into the room, when out comes the woman with the ferret wrapped in a towel and then all of a sudden a dog head popped out of the blanket. It was a it was a minature doxhound (my spelling might be wrong). Needless to say, that poor vet was teased a lot. [Posted in FML issue 4937]
