Yes, that was a list 42 dead animals. In a month of 28 days.

No, I did not personally put down all of these animals, but all of them were patients at our clinic which died or were euthanized this February. Also, this is an incomplete list, as I didn't keep track of them all at the time and there were several "walk-in" euthanasias for animals that we had never seen before.
