Anyone else feel a bit weird seeing their pet listed with a surname? Vet yesterday went a level odder and was addressing them as Sir.

    I thought vets always did it to be cute but it probably helps line up animals and owners in their system.

    It's extra funny when a pet is called something stupid because the last name then makes it sound so formal

    That’s extremely cute.

    Melbcat used to have a compounding pharmacy deliver her meds by mail, and it was addressed to her with my last name. Like, that’s right, that’s my adopted daughter. Who is practically people
