"Ahhhhhh, gotcha! Okay, I'll have to contact the shelter, how long ago did you adopt him? He probably just needs a normal round of shots. I'm going to warn you that this might get a little spendy, but it'll help in the long run," he wasn't the type to pretend that going to vet wasn't an expensive endeavor, but it did help the pet in the long run. Also your wallet because then you got on the normal schedule for shots and it wasn't as often.
The comment about the treats and spoiling brought a wide grin to Thackery's face as they entered an exam room and he shut the door behind her, "And my cats love these treats, so I usually keep them on hand. It also helps that most cats enjoy them as well. And I promise to do my best not to spoil him and don't worry, I won't let him manipulate me out of all the treats in my pocket." He set Carver down on the table in the middle of the room and set to work getting ready to check the cat.
