Basil made his first trip to the emergency vet this week. A sudden and persistent issue led me to call in to Olympia Pet Emergency to see if they could help us out. A half hour drive later, they checked him in and got to work.

It was not life-threatening but was obviously uncomfortable for the little guy. $400 and a little embarrassment later, and he was good as new.

I’m not going to go into detail but if you want more info on what happened, google paraphimosis.
