I'll get my coat.......

A woman brought a very limp duck into a vet. As she laid her pet on the

table, the vet pulled out his stethoscope and listened to the bird's chest.

After a moment or two, the vet shook his head sadly and said,

 

"I'm so sorry, your duck has passed away."

 

The distressed owner wailed, "Are you sure?" "Yes, I'm quite sure. The duck

is dead," he replied. "How can you be so sure," she protested. "I mean, you

haven't done any testing on him or anything. He might just be in a coma or

something." The vet rolled his eyes, turned around and left the room and

returned a few moments later with a black Labrador retriever.

 

As the duck's owner looked on in amazement, the dog stood on his hindlegs,

put his front paws on the examination table and sniffed the duck from top

to bottom. He then looked at the vet with sad eyes and shook his head.

 

The vet patted the dog and took it out, and returned a few moments later

with a cat. The cat jumped up on the table and also sniffed delicately at

the bird. The cat sat back on its haunches, shook its head, miaowed softly

and strolled out of the room.

 

The vet looked at the woman and said, "I'm sorry, but as I said, this is

most definitely, 100% certifiably, a dead duck."

 

Then the vet turned to his computer terminal, hit a few keys and produced a

bill which he handed to the woman. The duck's owner, still in shock, took

the bill. "£150!", she cried.

 

"£150 just to tell me my duck is dead?"

 

The vet shrugged. "I'm sorry." "If you'd taken my word for it, the bill

would have been £20, but with the Lab Report and the Cat Scan, it's now

£150."
