What to do when you’re vet’s a monkey
A friend of mine asked me for some advice, and I thought it’d be good to share with the big wide world.
What do you do when you’re vet is awful? What can you do besides take your pet to someone better?
I recommend you contact both of these groups.
The Oklahoma Veterinary Medical Association is a professionals association.
The Oklahoma Board of Veterinary Medical Examiners is the state agency that actually does licensing reviews.
If you have a vet who isn’t treating your animals right, be sure to find someone new and report the problems you’ve had. Need a referral? Ask OVMA.

Go, go Gotebo!
The goats are home. OK, to be more specific, the Nigerian dwarf goats at the Oklahoma City Zoo are now at home in the new Children’s Zoo exhibit. Zoo staffers hauled the cuddly creatures from their off-exhibit habitat to their new digs. They’ll be part of the contact barn. The goats, along with all the other Children’s Zoo animals, will debut March 12. Check out these photos sent in from D. Jones and C. Lewis of the Oklahoma City Zoo.
