Animal doctor...

Yibbe and me made the trip to the vet this morning. Chloramphenicol didn't work for his conjunctivitis and he started having rhinorrhea (running nose) and sneeze a lot. Kesian hidung meleleh je. Unlike us humans, cats cannot blow their nose.
As it was a Sunday morning, there were not many four-legged patients yet. So, I had a chat with the vet. Today, Yibbe's usual vet is off so he was attended by this lady vet. Nice gal. Found out in Malaysia, there are vets who can do cataract operation for animals.... phacoemulsification lagi (break the cataractous lens using ultrasound waves then aspirate it thru a sutureless incision) but that is only available in UPM. Most of them vets are trained there. But for subspeciality, they have to be trained overseas.
I almost wanted to become a veterinarian. I included that in my UPU form. Never thought i will become as i am today, instead.
Maybe if the blue moon turns yellow, or the motorists in Malaysia start driving dengan berhemah, perhaps i shall change career and become an animal doctor instead eh??
