THE WEB IS WONDERFUL BUT...
Nothing can take the place of a thorough "real life"
veterinary examination. Peek inside the e-mail bag
this week to see how the Internet can help pets and
vets find solutions to health problems.

SENIOR CAT WITH CANCER - NEED ADVICE
"This morning we received the diagnosis from the scope -
she has cancer. I have two questions. The first is that
she is very weak. She seems to be getting weaker over the
last two days - since I brought her back from the vet. Is
this normal? The second question is the tough one we have
to face when our pets get older, "Am I doing the right
thing for her?" TOM34STANGL

Tour vet clinics and around the world. Included in
this month's tour is the veterinary practice of

Veterinary Medicine at The Mining Company (now About.com).

DOES BEING A VET ASSISTANT HELP?
"I was wondering if you get qualified to be a veterinary
assistant, do veterinary schools take this into consideration
and give you credit for it?" KITTENCNDY

TWICE HOOKED
"I have a Shih Tzu has hookworms for the second time.
What other effects can hookworms have (besides death)
if undetected for a length of time? Can neuropathy
develop from the toxins in the bloodstream?" DONULRICH
