I remember a comedian talking about taking his cat to the vet and being told the cat had bad knees. "I didn't even know cats _had_ knees, but what do I know? If the vet told me he needs new batteries, I can't argue with him."
- Waterluvian 2y agoI once had a vet that was so good about addressing this issue and making sure I was equipped to be part of any decisionmaking process. She would be happy to discuss an issue layer by layer until I felt sufficiently informed. It helped that she was a natural science communicator. Eventually we moved and I lost that vet but gained a family doctor who was very much the same. Unfortunately he “isn’t licensed to treat nonhumans.”
- IndySun 2y ago>...remember a comedian talking about taking his cat to the vet... I've read your reply, is the point you're making that you didn't know cats had knees? I'm not sure, perhaps it's something deeper I'm missing.
- DontchaKnowit 2y agoThe point is "here is a related funny joke"
- jeltz 2y agoCats have similar legs to birds so the question if cats have knees makes as much or as little sense as if penguins have knees.
