My cat received a letter through the post today!

Lol, that is hilarious. I have actually received a letter for my cat as well and it was basically for the same thing to get their vaccines and stuff. But wow, to call in and make a appointment. Lol, got your joke.

Anyway, it must be good to be reminded of the appointment! This is such a great way to bruing a smile tp your face. I have never heard of this before.

I have 2 vets. My regular one is not expensive and they don't send reminders. The other one, that I take the cats to for things beyond the capacity of the regular vet does send reminders. Probably part of WHY they are so expensive!

LOL, I can't have pets in my apartment, but yes, my dog used to receive appointment and innoculation reminders on post cards addressed to him ... I though it was adorable! I'd write them on the calendar and then let the dog have them. He hid them, the way he sometimes hid treats "for later." Maybe he read them after I'd gone to bed??

Yes we get notices from the vet when our dog needs his shots. It is addressed to the dog and seems rather silly but guess it's their way of making the postcard personal. Teach your cat to drive..lol You could be a rich woman.

We did get a sympathy card from our vet after we had our cat put to sleep the beginning of this year. It was so sweet and made me cry. Was signed by all the employees.

hello anne18,

they should have put it with the owners name, must been a real VIP thing for the cat. i wish mine would receive something like that so that i would reason for my mom to provide me with financial support for my cat. must have been cool your cat is personally reminded of the appointment she/he must take. come to think of it, i haven't send my cat to the vet since I've adopted her, i hope when i do have the money

My dogs get letters from their vet all the time. The vet sends "them" reminders on vaccinations. She also sends them birthday cards. Sometimes, they will get coupons and birthday cards from PetSmart. I think it is so funny that they get more birthday wishes than I do.

Wow. i am envious of your cat. I love receiving snail mails and I have not received any in months or even years (except for those ads).. I hope your cat realizes how lucky he is..hehehe

Yes, My dog used to receive mail, a catalog with her name on it from a pet supply place. She never looked at it though - think it was because she didn't have any thumbs and found it hard to turn the page.
On a funnier note, I did have one dog who did answer the phone one time when I called my house.
We had just moved in and the phone sat on the floor as we didn't have much furniture set up yet. I was calling my roommate to come and pick me up- only he had already left. I heard the phone ring a couple times then nothing.. so i said Hello, Hello..
and to my surprise my dog started whining back and getting all excited that mommy was on the phone.. So I stopped and talked to her for a while.. lol
when My roommate arrived I told him what happened. And he thought I was making it up until we arrived home and there was the phone off the hook... she must have pawed at it when it rang.
I think she knew it was me on the other end and just wanted to talk to me..:)
She was special that way!

LOL!!! How funny!! This gave me an idea, I'll send a postcard to my dog next time I'm on holiday abroad.:):)
