hi im not surprised by the vet's response. for all u know she was right. but the truth is.. vets are not very well versed in breeds in the first place. even if they are.. they cant go around telling such things to their customers..they'd lose all of them. so i bring in a strapping large mongrel and i say its a chihuahua.. the vet will never tell me otherwise. if you buy from a pet shop.. u can never be sure. as long as there is no pedigree.. dog or cat.. u cant know for sure.
pomlover.. the pet farm in pasir ris is one of the least trustworthy places around. i always advise ppl.. if u cant find a registered breeder of a particular breed.. import or adopt. even with cats they spout a lot of crap. they were selling this persian cat with a fungal infection and has the audacity to tell my friend that it was recovering. no such thing as recovering. the cat is either ill or it is not. and in this case.. it was quite a bad infection. when asked.. where is this cat registered with.. the smart answer? SKC! to this day i can still have a laugh about it. i didnt know that SKC goes around registering cats. always find out about a person or a place before buying live animals from them... also know what u should be getting. safeguard yourself because these people are in it for profit and they are more sales motivated than anything else.
