I'm sure there's someone you can call to check if there have been any other complaints about that particular Vet; somthing similar to the Better Business Bureau. Maybe the local animal shelter would know.

In any case, I hope your kitty is fine. When one of our cats contracted crystals in his urinary tract, I just about freaked. He was bleeding lightly from down below, but when the doc at the local Cat Hospital took him out of his cage and sat him onto the exam table, he gushed out blood and urine like someone turned on a water tap and then turned it off again. That wasn't easy to see. Fortunately he's alright now. And thank god the Cat Hospital is just around the corner from where we live.
