Thank you for your replies.
I think I will hold off on it for now, especially considering her immune system might not be 100%. She will have a tag with her phone and address on
it. I will probably at least get her tattoo'd.

Ugh. That scares me. I know you're right too- I mean, I didn't have my girl autopsied even though we don't know the ultimate cause of her death (but
she was 13).
As far as the shots go, I'm with you there. I do them every three years because the law says she has to have the rabies. We rarely have rabies here
and when we do, animal control drops food pellets with rabies vaccinations in them over the more wild animal populated areas- my dogs have eaten
them.

She is adorable, isn't she? She came to meet my housemates' dog last night- I could barely stand to let her leave! They think she's a lab/pit mix.
She's got labby webbed feet and a bit of a pitbaby face and ears...and tail of death (long thin whip tail).
She was very active, playing with George, while she was here last night. Seems to be recovering well from her illness.

Most of the shelters here do that too, but it seems the Humane Society isn't doing it. I can have them do it if I want, though.

That's just creepy.

Thank you for your input!!
There are no horrible pictures in the links, BTW. I'd have warned!
My cats haven't had shots in years. Only one goes out regularly and eats mice etc. He's healthy...he's an old guy though and now I'm paranoid after
losing my girl. If he breathes funny or sleeps too deeply next to me I panic a little.
