    Beware...don't let them put your pet to sleep. I took my cat in to have his teeth cleaned which later developed into him needing multiple teeth pulled. They put him to sleep. When I got him home i noticed he was having trouble breathing. I took him to the emergency hospital where they hooked him up to oxygen and ran tests. The texts showed his body was full of fluids in his lungs and around his heart. It was believed that he either vomited while under or the drainage didn't take place properly. The emergency hospital was unable to save my boy. I had been taking all of my cats there for years, but it seems that Banfield has started taking in too many pets at a time and are no longer capable of taking care of them like they should. I had a morning appointment but didn't get my cat back until closing time. Why is it the norm to have to drop your pet off each time? I will never take another one of my pets Banfield again
