Hello Sir, I am Doctor Kandice Sparagmos. I'm a Veterinarian from the Richmond Acres large animal hospital.
Yes i know that sounds strange, but i am also trained in exotic animal care, an serve the local Zoo animals.
I was called out on a medical run, involving one of your jackal's.. No actually it was Faust.. He collapsed, an was unconscious for several minutes. He is claiming that it just was stress, and exhaustion. But he is still seeming to be lightheaded.
i would like to take him back to the hospital for some tests and observation. Elliot seems to be alot more stable, although is showing the effects of his anemia. I could try to address that condition, with supplements an perhaps a blood transfusion.
For cancer treatment, a new round of chemo, or nuclear medicine we would have to call in an out of town specialist. Doing X-rays is as far as the local vets here have the training to do.
What would like for me to do for your Jackal's sir?

I'd like to them to take a diagnostic examination. Also, if possible, I'd like to put off the blood transfusion til I arrive. Elliot hates hospitable beds and he won't go unless both me and Faust are present. I'll be arriving in two weeks. Maybe we could schedule the blood transfusion by then. As for the cancer treatment, I would also like to ask if you could wait for me to arrive unless something drastic happens.

Yes Sir, i understand your instructions completely. Thank you, bye
Handing the phone back to Faust.
Kandi looks up.. DoH!
Oh rats! Ummm who is watching over you two while your owner away?

Do you feel up to traveling, or are you feeling light headed?
She asks Faust.

I'm responsible while our Dad is away. I'm perfectly capable of taking care of the household while our Dad is travelling. I'm fine now since my worries about Elliot have been relieved. What did he tell you anyway?

Elliot turns to Stryder.

.....I guess this is good bye..... Do you wanna hang out tomorrow?

In'a nut shell. I am to run the diagnostic tests, and monitor your two's health.
But not to start any treatments, if at all possible, until he returns.
I don't think he trusts me with your care.
Kandi starts gathering up her medical bags.
Shall we go?

Oh, you should know, my pet cat is a very feral, female cougar.

I can do that, in fact i would want to make sure you got home. perhaps we can avoid the clinic, What are you feelings about a barn?
Packing the equipment into the truck, along with the jackals.

Is the cougar gonna be there? (Please say no. PLEASE SAY NO!)

Faust gives a worried look.

I'd love to see the cougar and Barn! (I bet Faust is screaming on the inside)

Elliot smiles at Faust.

Faust glares at Elliot thinking

(I hate you.) >=(

Elliot closes his eyes and lets out a grin thinking.

(I know.) >=D

She limps towards the kitchen and then stops as she has a sudden idea. Pulling out her phone, she texts Lucky to tell him that she's free for the day and invites him over, also suggesting that this might be a good day to start his ukelele lessons.

"We'll see what the doctor wants to do with Elliot and Faust first, Mr... er... er... anyway, we'll wait and see. No point getting them down if Dr. Sparagmos is going to take the jackals straight in to the clinic. But thank you for the offer."

Lucky received the text and sent back a message saying he would meet her at the park. He caught a ride with his mom to the library and then headed towards the park.

Piper texts back again to inform him that she's entertaining guests so could he come to the shop instead please?

Stryder nods, “Yes, sir.”

Stryder smiles, his tail wagging gently, “Yea, I would love to.”

Stryder waves goodbye as the jackals get into the truck and stands there a moment as they drive away. No longer sure what to do, Stryder glances around, sighs and starts heading back towards his house.

Blick awakes with a start.
Where am I?! This doesn't smell like my apartment! She screams internally.

She then remembers the move and her heartrate begins to lower. Glancing around, she realizes that last night she had only made a small make-shift bed out of blankets as the movers finished building her new bed.

Wow, this place is a lot bigger in the daylight. She says to herself.

She explores her new room; rearranging items and occasionally looking back at her new bed. At the old place she had to sleep on the floor in Sabrina's room. Now, Blick has a room to call her own! Blick finishes sorting and begins her morning routine (Brushing her teeth, combing her fur, eating breakfast, and going for a walk).

Maybe Sabrina will let me go to that park we saw on the way here! Blick thought excitedly as she finishes brushing her tail.

"Leaving so soon? You're more than welcome to stay and chat with Piper and the other pets upstairs, you know. Or I could show you around the shop if there was anything you wanted to see." says Richard to Stryder as the dog starts to leave.

Stryder looks up, his tail wagging slightly, "Th..thank you, I would like to stay and meet them." Glancing around the shop, "Everything looks really nice, but I don't get much of an allowance." Looking up at Richard again, "Maybe when I get a chance to ask my dad for some money." Casting a glance towards the stairs, "Is it alright if I just go up, sir?"

Kateleo007 · Post by **Kateleo007** » Wed Sep 04, 2013 1:33 pm

Blick hears a shuffling behind her, a heavy shuffling.

Hey Sabrina, breakfast is almost ready. I only made you one portion this time though, sorry. But I have to follow what the doc says She says with a smile, as she presses the top of the wafflemaker down .

*sigh* Yeah, we gotta follow doctor's orders. Sabrina looks towards Blick, whose carefully watching the wafflemaker. What is that? Sabrina asks, pointing at Blick's plate.

A blueberry and bacon waffle! Don't worry, yours is just blueberry. Blick answers.

Blick finishes cooking and both van Gorges sit down at the table.

I was wondering...could we please go to the park after breakfast? Blick asks as politely as she can.

I don't see why not, you've been good. Sabrina replies.

Blick eats at full speed so she can get to the park as fast as possible, and gets the hiccups. Sabrina giggles, eating her breakfast at a more reasonable speed.

"Yes, certainly. Please do. And you can call me Richard if you like. 'Sir' makes me feel so old."

"Alright, Richard." Stryder smiles slightly as he hurries up the stairs, slowing as he nears the top. Looking around for the other pets, "Uh...Piper?" His ears twitch nervously as he suddenly realizes he doesn't even know what species Piper is, much less what she looks like.

The weather was nice as Sabrina and Blick made their way to the park. Blick is sniffing everything, and gradually getting to know her new neighborhood.

This new place must have a lot of pets, I can smell it, but I haven't actually seen anyone Blick thought I hope it's not because I'm a fox, and they think I'd hunt them. Or maybe I haven't seen them because they're hunting me...

Blick felt a chill go down her spine, glancing around and seeing all the places predators could hide. She slinks over to her mom and holds her hand, all the while alert for hunters.

Rusty, who was still swinging on the swing set, notices and fox and a somewhat overweight lady enter the park, the former going around sniffing everything, before slinking back and holding the later's hand.

"Hi there!" He calls to them, giving a brief wave with his right paw, while still holding onto the swing chain with his left.

Kateleo007 · Post by **Kateleo007** » Wed Sep 04, 2013 4:22 pm

Hi! I just moved in yesterday, my name's Blick! What's yours? Blick responded to the friendly dog on the swing.

I'd love to see the cougar and Barn!

I sure hope she is still around in the barn area.
But I can keep her away if you would like.

Kandi drives back to the clinic, pulling into the gravel parking lot, driving around to the barn.
hmmmm the surgery light is still on, I wonder if there still in the same surgery after all this time?
Kandi pulls into the parking place under the shed roof of the barn.
Ah... There is Senka. Way over by the kennel's shed. An the horses are still out in the field, that is good.

Blick trots over to the swing set and begins swing and tell the terrier about her life before she moved.

Mercury wolfed down his bowl of food and stood again to gather his bag

Post by **Hlaoroo** » Wed Sep 04, 2013 6:50 pm

Hearing her name called from the hallway, Piper pops her head through the doorway. "I'm Piper. Who are you?" she asks the dog standing on the landing.

~~~~
*Ding Ding!*
"Oh, the bell. Someone's at the counter. I'd better attend to that. Feel free to wander about the place but please stay away from Nadia until I get back, OK?" Sandy jogs in through the back door and into the reception area of the clinic where he beholds a man standing flanked by a kitten and a rabbit.
"Good morning. How can I help you?" he enquires brightly.

~~~~
"Where are you off to in such a hurry, Mercury?"

Stryder shifts his tennis ball to his left paw and extends his right, "I..I'm Stryder." He shifts his weight slightly, "Your....uh...owner invited me up here to meet you." Providing a nervous smile, "I just moved here."

Post by **Hlaoroo** » Wed Sep 04, 2013 7:28 pm

"Oh. Well then, welcome to the neighbourhood, Stryder. Nice to meet you." She shakes the proffered paw. "Why don't you come through to the kitchen/living area? I was just making some drinks. Would you like one?" She limps back through the doorway. "Pyre, Ryze, this is stryder. He's new to the area. Stryder, this is Pyre and Ryze."

Mercury slowed his pace, "Oh, uh, I dunno yet... I just kinda figured that maybe I'd stumble into something cool..." his tail swished

"Ah, hello. Sorry to come in so early, but I wanted a few checkups on my pets here.." Leroy says, gesturing to the rabbit and cat.

Aron looks up to the man and smiles lightly, Although he doesn't look happy to be there..

"My dad moved us here from the city. We had an apartment in a busy neighborhood with few other pets, so I didn't get out much."

Post by **Hlaoroo** » Wed Sep 04, 2013 8:46 pm

"Oh, lovely. This'll be a nice change of pace for you then. What would you like to drink, Pyre? Tea, coffee, water, I-Can't-Believe-It's-Not-Drinking-Chocolate, blackcurrant cordial, milk, take your pick." She pulls out the same leg of lamb which Doc had eaten from yesterday. "How about some lamb, Ryze?"

WeirdGamer · Post by **WeirdGamer** » Wed Sep 04, 2013 8:53 pm

Lucky finally made his way to the shop. After dusting off the remains of a flower pot from his shoulders, he texted Piper that he had arrived.

hypernovatic · Post by **hypernovatic** » Wed Sep 04, 2013 8:55 pm

Pyre's ears perked up when he heard "milk". "Milk, please." he replied. Ryze started to purr when she saw the lamb. "Sure." she told Piper.

Leroy shakes his head. "Ah, no.. We're new to the neighborhood, I have a full background on Aron here.."
Leroy places a folder he carried in onto the reception desk. "But Leslie's a new addition to the family.. So I'd like to check them. Be on the safe side."

wolfbrothren · Post by **wolfbrothren** » Wed Sep 04, 2013 9:10 pm

Smiling a little, "Yea, I suppose it is."

Post by **Hlaoroo** » Wed Sep 04, 2013 9:23 pm

"Oh, well then, welcome to Richmond Acres! Since you're new to us, I'll need you to fill out these couple of forms - there's one for your details and one for each pet. Pens are in the tin there. You can do it here or feel free to sit in the waiting area to fill them in. When were you hoping to get an appointment?" Sandy wakes up the computer and brings up the appointment book.

~~~~
Piper sets the lamb in froont of Ryze along with a carving knife and a smaller plate. "Help yourself. Would you like some bread or anything with it?" The last two words of her sentence are slightly distorted as her phone, stored in her collar, vibrates against her throat. She pours Pyre a tall glass of milk and then reads the message.
"Oh, Lucky is here. I'll bring him up. Be right back." She limps out of the room and down the stairs. Richard had already seen Lucky in the street and let him in through the side door so Piper meets him in the middle of the shop.
"Hi, Lucky. How's it going? Is that... terracotta in your fur? Do I want to ask what happened this time? Come on up. There's another new dog in town. There were some jackals here this morning too." she begins limping back towards the stairs.

WeirdGamer · Post by **WeirdGamer** » Wed Sep 04, 2013 9:27 pm

"good morning Piper, it's going about the same as usual," respond Lucky as he followed her. Seeing she was limping, he looked at her foot, his eyes full of concern. "Your foot's not better?"
