Animals don’t feel pain

Posted on May 3, 2004 @ 1:40 pm

Yesterday, my wife and I were discussing potential names for veterinary clinics and whether we liked gimmicky names such as “Pets are People Too.” Then, I sarcastically suggested that “Animals Don’t Feel Pain” Veterinary Clinic would be a terrific name if she ever decided to open her own practice. I can just imagine it now…

Customer: So, when you say “Animals Don’t Feel Pain,” are you pledging to provide painless care to my pets or are you saying that you believe my pets are physiologically incapable of experiencing sensations of pain?

Receptionist: Well, ma’am, if you accept the latter, the former is more or less a given.

Then, we got off on a tangent discussing other unrelated “Animals Don’t Feel Pain” businesses, like the “Animals Don’t Feel Pain” Airport Shuttle Service and the “Animals Don’t Feel Pain” Bakery. But, as you can imagine, that’s neither here nor there.

    Hmm…could have a catchy name like, “Oh, crap! Hand Me The Glue, QUICK! Animal Hospital”

    I have long had the idea of starting a pharmacy named “Oops!” But have had no takers…like my idea for a restaurant dubbed “The Molested Donkey”…again…no takers…

    Doug: You managed to crack Kourtney up with “Oh, crap! Hand Me The Glue, QUICK! Animal Hospital.” :)
