2010 applicants....APPLICATIONS, INTERVIEWS, OFFERS [Mark 2]

Anyone have cats that love the snow? Ours do, even though their pads get pretty cold and raw. I've never seen cats bound about and dig in the snow like they do. It's just great to see.

Ah, I seem to have turned the conversation towards cats. Some people at vet school know me as the, "crazy cat and rat lady". Most people here are more into dogs I think. I haven't met anyone yet who shares quite the level of obsession as I do, although obviously there are more passionate cat people out there than me. :P

if you live that close to a busy road maybe think about getting a different pet, i know it sounds harsh but imagine if you lived on a really busy road and your indoor cat escaped, it would have no traffic sense and wouldnt stand a chance

back from canada early
the whole trip was a disaster, i nearly got refused entry into the country and then the stables was nowhere near as big as they claimed, instead of 60 horses they had less than 20 it basically ment there was nothing for me to do, i kept asking if there was extra jobs, grooming, mucking out, cleaning tack etc but they just said no there wasnt and told me to go and relax.
I decided to come home because it was costing me too much money to be there if i wasnt learning anything or being vaguely helpful

on the cat subject... im fully in favour of cats going outside. my cats just use the catflap to come and go as they please, much less hassle for everyone! i dont really think cats should be kept indoors all the time unless its for medical reasons because they wont get enough exercise and i dont think they should be cooped up all the time! if you live that close to a busy road maybe think about getting a different pet, i know it sounds harsh but imagine if you lived on a really busy road and your indoor cat escaped, it would have no traffic sense and wouldnt stand a chance

and ldvet i agree, frogs make a terrible noise! and their blood is a funny colour...

So I got up and found a fully grown wild rabbit under my head. That was great fun trying to catch it.

You...you mean under your bed, right?! Cute fluffy bunnies are not pillows!

Haha, yes, yes, I did. I knew you'd notice some typo somewhere, you're just out to get me.

You say that as if you've been worrying that I'm watching your posts like a hawk, determined to find any slip up and pounce on it. I'm really not sure I deserve such a creepy reputation. I think I preferred being PL the womaniser

(plus I wouldn't want to move my cats when they're so accustomed to family's home).

That's pretty ****, sorry Especially when it'll have cost you that much to get out there. Are you looking to go somewhere else over here, or just leaving it?

You on study leave yet?

We don't get study leave
And we've not even finished the Biology or Chemistry syllabuses!

neither have we! or maths or psychology our chemistry teacher doesn't even seem to have any sense of urgency to get through everything, biology are panicking a little and making us finish a lot of notes as homework
last year we didn't finish psychology on time for the exam and had to self teach ourselves a huge section of it
