Arrow Re: Betsy

Betsy deteriorated further overnight so i had to have her pts when i came back from work. My OH cared for her so she wasn't alone that night.

The vet said that she was very unwell and it didn't take much to put her to sleep.

That's the first time i had to pts a hamster and was reassured that the vet surgery i go to was so professional and sensitive about the whole process.

I phoned and they sourced a vet from the wards so i could take her in immediately as an emergency. We were shown into a quiet room with a sofa and box of tissues and the vet explained everything before i signed the form and said good bye to Betsy. Betsy was returned to me wrapped up and in her transport box.

The fee was £22 and i had expected more.
