  "Opinion: Back in 2019, 6 of my 8 cats were poisoned. I was completely broke, so I could do nothing but try to make them comfortable as they passed. It wasn$0027t fast, some suffered for days. When my favorite cat got sick, I knew there was no way I could watch him suffer. I borrowed the money to have him euthanized. When I got to the office I explained the situation, and before I could even get out all the details, the vet cut me off telling me she suspected leukemia. I said I$0027ve got a video of one cat screaming as she was dying, wriggling in agony with blood pouring out her nose. She refused to acknowledge this. She said I$0027ll tell you what, I$0027ll even test him for free after he$0027s been put to sleep. Wouldn$0027t you know it, my cat wasn$0027t poisoned, he tested positive for leukemia. Six cats, died in five days of leukemia? A long term illness? She said it$0027s contagious. I asked why the other two survived? No answer. The other two survived because they were my shy babies, who hid from the poisoner. Leukemia. I was so mad at her rude disregard for truth, professionalism, and human decency. Not to mention how stupid."
