There are alarming and ever-increasing numbers of incidences of ill heath and often unexpected and premature death in our animals nowadays. I have a personal concern for all of them, everywhere, whether 'mine' or not. So even if it's not 'popular opinion', I'd like to post this link to information on the (thankfully) growing numbers of veterinarians who are highly concerned with the root causes of growing epidemics of disease in our 'pets'. You may be uncomfortable with what you read (as you SHOULD be!), but it is my hope that like the highly-respected vets who are speaking out, you will take the time to educate yourself and think, as they have been doing, about the links between vaccinating (and over-vaccinating) animals who start out at least relatively healthy, but too soon end up leaving us because of blindly following protocols that, once dissected and studied, make little sense and actually end up harming the ones we love so dearly. I firmly believe that we should take responsibility for our furbabies health and wellness by learning all we can about what we are allowing and choosing for them and by remaining open to more discriminatory ways of thinking, on their behalf. To my mind, they are ALL worth this little bit of effort on our parts.

They constantly help us to grow, in mind, body and spirit and we all want them to live long, joyous and healthy lives. So let us do our part and not be afraid to keep learning and growing, in thanks for all they give us so freely and willingly.

Thanks for the link... I heard about this kind of thing years ago. One of the reasons I changed vets was because the old one kept insisting on giving Simba shots that I felt he didn't need. Everytime I took him there they seemed like they wanted to make a pin cushion out of him. I am they insisted because they were more interested in the money for each shot rather than the health of my cat.

His first lump that came up looked like it was in the exact spot where he got one of the shots. Might be just a coincidence but I suspected it was some kind of allergic reaction to a shot he got.

After he got the bump surgically removed it grew back a few months later. When petting him I started feeling the bumps all over his body and at that point there wasn't really much that could be done for him. Eventually they spread into his stomach and lungs and that is when I had to let him go.

I'm not saying it was from all the shots but it does definately have me wondering in the back of my mind.
