'Life and Death' for Pets: Elizabeth Warren Targets Firm Buying Veterinary Offices

10. I feel for you and your chicken...

I was lucky enough to find someone on a farm with a pond who would take the chicken and duck who showed up in my backyard. They were inseparable friends. But I also had a rooster, and he made our home with us for a couple of years. Had a very close relationship with my husband. The two of them would "talk" forever together, and run around the backyard with the dogs. Hubs was very unhappy when I found someone with chickens who wanted a rooster to complete their coop. You can make friends with EVERY kind of critter, and not having trustworthy, competent, consistent medical help for them is every bit as much of a worry as it is for a 2-year-old child.
