    My mother-in-law used to be a vet. When she sold her practice (to a national chain that told her explicitly that they were buying it to close it down and reduce their competition yay capitalism) she took home enough euthanasia drugs and syringes to take care of herself and everybody in her family if it ever comes to that. That’s probably the only thing you would actually want in a real apocalypse.

    It’s easy to know the biology and anatomy of 1 species. Someone that can take care of a fish, a bird, and a platypus is the real MVP

    Not to mention, it’s a policy in a lot of US hospitals that the doctor should begin and end all appointments with a customary deep french kiss to express their financial gratitude.

    I was thinking about this post a lot recently. Great way to flirt with a veterinarian - “ohhh babe you’d be SO good in a zombie apocalypse! The folks at tumblr told me so.”

    As a veteran, I thought this was going a different route when it mentioned “vets.” But it’s very true. I’d trust a veterinarian as a doctor in the zombie apocalypse.
