On the other hand, I think moms with babies and a gaggle of very
small
children could use their
own preferred parking place. Ever see them trying to herd little
ones,
while lugging an infant in
one of those huge car-seat things, PLUS their groceries. Sometimes
it's not possible to "leave the
kids at home."
Oh well. I guess that's why babies are for the young and energetic!

While I'm on a rant, it would be nice if the vet had a "dog-free zone"
in the waiting room. Dogs
just freak Yoda out so bad.

Most of them do have separate waiting rooms for dogs and cats.

The vet we had forty years ago for Sam had completely separate waiting
rooms. You came in to the foyer and went thru a door to the left for
cats and a door to the right for dogs.

One place we board our cats also have a soundproofed room for the cat
cages so they cant hear the fuss in the rest of the hospital. It even
has a large picture window so they can see out to amuse themselves.
