    You don't like your hamster anymore? The pound here takes in rodents.

    He's in Hamster Heaven now. He didn't look well for a while and I hated the thought of him suffering.

    They're only supposed to live 1-2 years and he was 2.5. He looked awful though. Was still super active and eating until the end though.

    I think at least when you're operating on a person who is in pain, you can explain what's going on to them. What hurts with animals is that they don't understand, so they're so terrified.

    Yea, Chloe's been operated on twice. Anesthetized of course, but now she hates the vet whereas she used to love it. I felt sorry for her when she came to, but god it was funny.

    Yeah, Ron wouldnt be a good candidate for working with sick and dying animals. I could see somoene brining in their half dead dog needing it put to sleep and ron prancing into the room singing 'YOU ARE MY SUNSHINE' while giving the lethal dose and his comforting word to the animal owner? "WELL AT LEAST IT WASNT YOUR KID YOU IDIOTIC ASSHOLE, LET IT GO. AT LEAST YOUR KIDS ARE ALIVE'.




    Orrrrrrrrr, i could see ron hovering over a dying animal brought in by some wayyy gorgeous woman and him looking up at her saying 'your animal wont go to animal heaven unless we go on a date and you put out. Your dog's word's not mine'.


    I could see it now.

    WTF? You need a euthanize a rodent, you put it in a shoebox in the freezer. You need to euthanize quickly, you put it in a sock and introduce it to a wall.

    Woo pet store knowledge!

    This is true!
    When I worked at a pet store someone brought in like 5 huge MEANNNN hamsters they didn't want anymore so the owner told me to put them in a clear plastic cricket bag one by one and smack them into the wall.

    We do this when people need dead rats for their snakes. Normally it goes fine, no blood or anything. This time though...

    The first hamster I put in a bag and smacked it into the wall and all of the sudden it was like the fucking thing exploded!!! Blood filled the bag!!! It was crazy!!! I immediately let the rest of the hamsters go outside in the woods.


    I never try anything, I just do it. Wanna try me?

    Lol I wish we were, but yeah that's totally how it's done! We wouldn't do that to your pets though! It's only rats and mice and small rodents sold for reptile food usually. If I had a sick hamster at the store it went in a plastic bag sealed tight and then it went into the freezer to freeze to death. Only when a customer needed one killed immediately for a snake or something did we use the smack method.

    We had some mice get into a fight and two of them were practically dismembered. They went to the wall. The ones with tumors went to the freezer.

    I could never bring myself to actually do it. I only even had to put some little dudes in the freezer once and couldn't sleep that night

    One of the multiple reasons I got out of veterinary care. No way I could administer the death blow, no matter how sick they are. I pay other people to do that shit. Wow, this got pretty far off topic.
