© 2011 by The York Daily Record/Sunday News. Patches, a 5-year-old cat belonging to Carol Bishop and her mother Mary of East Manchester Township, hisses at veterinarian Lisa Wade just as Wade asked her to open her mouth during a routine check-up on Friday, Oct. 28, 2011, at Shiloh Veterinary Hospital East. Carol Bishop said Patches wasn't very happy about going to the vet, and an assistant had to throw a towel over Patches' head and hold the cat in place while wearing welder's gloves as Wade gave Patches a rabies shot in the rump. Capital BlueCross is now offering insurance for pets through a partnership with pet insurer Petplan.
My editor and I fought hard to get this photo on A1, but an unseasonal snowstorm that knocked out 44,000 York Countians’ power changed everything. C’est la vie in the world of daily news.

And a 1A-worthy photo it is! Sorry it didn’t make it out there — I, too, lobbied for it to go there.
You are super-quick on the “Comment” button, Amy! Eileen and I pushed for it again on Thursday via a last-ditch effort to find a replacement story for Money & More, but it didn’t pan out.
Wow! I’m glad my cat doesn’t act like that when I take him to the vet! lol
great feature
