On two separate occasions, as a young teen, I was made to practice what I now call, “Barnyard Veterinary”, and euthanize/shoot my dying pets, both cats, in the head, so that they wouldn’t suffer.
Years ago, this story made a therapist cry, so I’ll not go into detail. Suffice to say, that although I lived in a semi-rural area, and was in 4-H, I didn’t live on a working farm with inbred half-wits.
