Grayson will be at the vet for five days

I was finally able to take Grayson to the vet this morning and as a bonus three of her kittens. Hard as I tried the other two eluded me. Why did I want to take her kittens? So the vet could tell me with certainty what their sex is in order to prioritize getting the females fixed first.

I was happy to find plenty of parking right by their front door which is highly unusual. I was glad I did not have to walk two blocks carrying two Pet Taxis. I went in first and asked the ladies at the front desk if it was OK to park by their entrance since the curb was painted bright yellow. She said the City of Acuña did that in most of the downtown streets...to go ahead and park...so I did!

There were only four other customers and their pets when we arrived.

The kittens cried all the way but once inside they got quiet...perhaps because there were four dogs there? In the picture, you can only see two of the ginger kittens but there was another one in the back.

The vet examined Grayson's paw, cleaned it up, and gave her two shots. He told me I had to put on this green ointment twice a day. I again had to explain to him that she is a feral cat and did not let me near her when I tried to clean her paw with peroxide after the accident happened or the following days.

He said the only solution would then be for her to stay at the clinic for five days so they could apply the medication. I agreed but was afraid to ask how much this was going to cost me but she is worth whatever amount it might be.

He examined the kittens and said they were in good health. Two of the gingers are girls and the gray with white paws is a male. He dewormed them at no charge and then applied vaccines or I would not have been able to legally cross them back to the USA. Though I must add that only once have the Custom Officials asked me for my cat's vaccine record. That was with Blanca.

My bill for the three kitten's vaccines was $1,140.00 pesos the equivalent of $57.00 USD.

I was hoping they would have let her stay in the blue Pet Taxi but he said she would be more comfortable in a larger cage and took her away.  I hope she is fine and is not too scared as most of the pets they bring to the clinic are dogs.

We came right back home. The wait was only ten minutes to cross into the United States.

This guy had it made he was able to avoid the line just like people on their bicycles are.

I do not know what they are called but they are fast...

Thank you for visiting Walter's World.
