Girard Veterinary Clinic
Yes, I was ready for the responsibility. Yes, I was prepared to scoop the poop. Yes, I was definitely ready for the supreme cuteness. I got a kitten. Choosing a vet you trust is just about as baffling as selecting any doctor; I usually try to get one of my friends to give up some advice so I don't experience a tireless trial-and-error escapade. (Don't even bring up the OBGYNs in this town.) Since maybe you don't have any friends (except your animal friends of course), I am recommending Girard Veterinary Clinic at 28th and Girard. The ever popular "morning drop-in" sessions are the way to go if you're starting out. Getting there early is a MUST (it opens at 8 am so get there by 7:20 am if you want any hope of getting out of there by 11 am). They are entirely receptive to working with feral cats if you are doing a kind deed for a street stray. A visit costs only $30 and I've found the doc to be thorough and attentive. Not to mention the GVC mascot (seen in the photo), the best shoulder cat in the world.
