I had been taking my 2 cats to Dr Betts at Mill Creek Veterinary hospital for several years and thought he was ok, not great but sufficient. This was until my 11 year cat Lizzy became sick with pancreatitis. I had two options, to put a feeding tube in her or have her put to sleep. Number one, putting a feeding tube in your animal is not a quality of life. However, what was upsetting was how my Lizzy was put to sleep. This was a couple years ago, but is still haunts me. When I took Lizzy in to be put down, first they wouldn't let me hold her. She had to lay on a cold table. She was already afraid from the car ride and being at the veterinary clinic. Then when Dr. Betts injected her she lurched up in pain, then fell back down to her death. Apparently Dr. Betts did not give her a sedative first. If you love your animals do not take them to Mill Creek Veterinary Hospital.
