Pet Problems?...funny!!
The Iams Pet Professionals, a team of 30 trained customer service
representatives at The Iams Company, handle more than 300,000
inquiries a year from pet owners across the country. Although the
majority of calls to the toll-free number are straightforward pet care
and nutrition questions, some can be quite unconventional. Here are
some of the team's favorite calls this year:
"My cat just came in from the garage and I was wondering... how many
calories are in a mouse?" cat owner, Omak, WA
"I have a neutered male cat. How old should he be before I can breed
him?" - cat owner, Colorado Springs, CO
"Does your dog food help with emancipation?" - dog owner, Lockport, NY
"What should I feed a borderline collie?" - puppy owner, Van Fleck, TX
"What size litter box do I need to keep my cat comfy?" - cat owner,
Chicago, IL
"Is it normal for a dog to shed?" - dog owner, Miami, FL
"How can I keep my cat from stealing my husband's toothbrush?" - cat
owner, Los Angeles, CA
"My cat passed a stool on the indoor rug and it's stuck in the vacuum
cleaner. Any suggestions? " - cat owner, Amarillo, TX
"How can I get the secret recipe for your Iams® Chunks dog food?" -
Anchorage, AK
"How do I stop my cat from giving food to the dog?" - pet owner,
Ephrata, WA
"Your food turned my dog into a stud. Now what do I do?" dog owner,
Flushing, NY
"Do you know how to toilet train a cat?" - cat owner, Ontario, Canada
"I have three cats. Is it true that Eukanuba® Cat Food makes the poop
smell better?" - cat owner, Wentzville, MO
"Will chewing pop cans remove enamel from my puppy's teeth?" - puppy
owner, Chico, CA
"Where can I get a six-toed cat?" - cat owner, El Paso, TX
"I really like your paw print logo. Does Iams have a tattoo?" pet
owner, North Tonawanda, NY
The Iams Company Manager of Customer Service says, "Although these
questions make us smile, they're legitimate calls from concerned pet
owners."

Very funny! I don't remember these types of questions when I was a vet tech, but I have heard similar as a pharmacy tech (example: we have to write "unwrap and insert" on suppositories because some people just insert them).
