He sure is my favorite vet in this whole series. Mostly because he has no need *and* no wish to fall back on the showmanship they have most of the other males in the series doing. Not enough attention to the actual work and the cases. Of course it's heartwarming to see all the vets being truly caring towards their patients but with Andrew you also always get a lot of theoretical explanations. It's a bit like you're his student getting to watch him during procedures and being educated. As an academic person, I enjoy this the most. He ist truly very experienced and talented to stay so calm even while being filmed during critical procedures - he'd be an awesome professor for any vet university!

U can't exactly blame the person who microchipped as they do move and it's just un luck where it moved too, but u can blame those who said "it's not the microchip" without doing all they could or recommending the owners somewhere there Able to do it.

[@xenalovesares]

I would say more so let them know what happened as it was a freak accident. Like they said the chances of it happening is 1 in a million. The other vets that refused to believe it was the microchip should be told snd have some sorta action taken against them as it happened at the time and after the microchipping so it was obviously something to do with it, just because they haven't heard of it happening and the chances of it ending up in the space between the spine is so minute does not mean there isn't a chance it has happened of can happen. They do sometimes move around after they have been implanted, my cats microchip dissapeared completely and they tried scanning him everywhere for it but there was no sign of it, so he had to get a new one.

[@candilynnn]

@@patriciabilinkas3911 did you hear that it is a million to one? The thing too is depending on where they had it done such as a shelter or one of those spay/neuter/vaccine clinics they are just sometimes trained volunteers often not always vets or fully certified techs doing microchips or vaccines. This is why when say a cat/dog is found they scan all over because some just find any clump of skin. This is also why most of these same places make you sign that they are not responsible for any reactions. I was shocked where the microchip was found but have known a couple times where dogs had allergic reactions.

Mitzi's foster mom has awesome intuition. She was right on with the probability it was the microchip that was dislodged.

[@tiffanychan9627]

She is also so loving, letting the Mitzi play with her necklace. The jewelry probably isn't as pricey as say diamond or made from some other precious mineral or likely to break, but I say that means a lot to care more about interacting with/entertaining an animal over whether your own possession gets broken

[@BankruptMonkey]

You expect that kind of carelessness in human doctors, it's very strange that a vet refused to look into all possibilities for a patient's health

[@Jintasan]

We had a problem with one of our cats when he got fixed. After he started spraying much worse and humping things a lot more. We asked them to check if he was actually fixed but all they would do was check the record that he had been. My parents took him to a different vet, they checked his testosterone levels and they were higher than a normal cats. They also did a scan and found that one of his balls never dropped or was inside him instead. He had surgery to remove it and we had no more problems with him spraying or anything.

[@Kirmeins]

@@Jintasan what? And the vet never mentioned he only found one of his balls and the other was likely left in his abdomen? I mean, it's common enough for males to have that condition... either that vet was ommiting this fact or he was seriously bad at writing his records and forgot about it when talking to your parents afterwards - which isn't good either...

[@ChibiChick25]

I'm surprised that she thought it wasn't the chip considering they literally said the kitten had a seizure as soon as it was chipped.

[@lynnettecook6973]

Whoever put the microchip in the kitty, should be fired and never allowed to work with animals of any species. Bravo Dr. Marchevsky! Well done!!! The cheetah cub totally melted my heart! Actually all the animals melted my heart except the Peccary, he gave me the creeps!!!

[@bivie4233]

If this was a practice of some kind that inserted the microchip, how is this not malpractice/negligence? They should be held liable for the costs of this kitty's medical treatment. Would love to see a 6 month update on this sweet girl.

[@Drathgore]

to play devils advocate, the chances of something like that happening are so small its more like a freak accident than malpractice. Also every time you do a medical procedure of any sort there's risks, hell even when you get your wisdom teeth out the dentist has to say that there's a small chance your lips might become paralyzed and has you acknowledge you're OK with that risk

[@LovinLife-pv7op]

I had no idea that a microchip could cause that! And then the Dr. claimed it couldn't happen, thank God the foster parent's checked it out anyway!!!!!

[@prcervi]

May be malpractice, more likely shear freak accident. like mentioned in video, the spacing the chip got lodged in is less the 2mm(little over like, 1/16 of an inch?) Wouldn't be terribly surprised if they did take the initial vet to court though, certainly have a solid case for shoddy work.

[@animeaunty]

Yes, it's a freak thing but the microchip needle should never have been angled toward the spine. It's supposed to go n parallel to the skin toward the tail. Whoever put it n was NOT paying attention to what they were doing at all.

Breaks my heart what happened to poor mitzy. You go in thinking you're doing something to be of a benefit to your animal, something elective nonetheless, and the nightmare of the small chance of something going so horribly wrong becomes reality. I really hope she has recovered to the fullest extent possible at this point in time and I hope her foster parents keep her. They are so wonderful with her and clearly love her so much. I hope this is the last time that sweet cat and her family go through such heartache. ❤🙌🏻

[@pauletteketchum4077]

Drs. don't take responsibility, he had to have known how far the needle was going in immediately. Then charged them another fee and lied about it when they brought the kitten back. And since they didn't show the kitten walking normally, her spine was probably permanently damaged.

[@kathaleenwood2426]

In America, a mistake like that would guarantee a lawsuit. Who ever did this better hold onto their licence. A little mistake is one thing, but the chip was buried deep into the kittens tissue and placed near her spine. That was a major mistake.

[@HJKelley47]

A malpractice law suit, resulting in the owners being reimbursed for the cost of the surgery, and the emotional trauma!

[@lovelysakurapetalsyt]

Yeah, angling the needle specifically towards the spine is something they teach you NOT to do at school, so for a vet to do that, they should lose their license

[@ShackleYT]

the thing is, the suit would not be against the people who injected her. it was a total freak accident. the odds of it happening are so low, that the people who said it wasn't possible, truely believed that it wasn't possible. However, there would still be a suit against the people who refused to check, cuz that''s medical neglect. and lawyers would have a field day with it. at the very least, the foster family ain't paying for that surgery

[@eleanorcooke7136]

​@@ShackleYT yeah, if a kitten is unwell and you don't try and find out why, that's not doing your job. I'm happy to accept that the microchip was an accident, probably due to the kitten squirming when it was injected. The vets that didn't try to diagnose the problem are in the wrong. Knowing what the kitten doesn't have is no help to the kitten, especially if the vet was wrong.

How sad that the poor dog was so distressed. I don't know why people even have dogs if they can't treat them right. Hope your neighbor paid attention.

[@Nirrrina]

We had a hound named Bella next door who constantly whined for attention & to go in. We had a young man as a neighbor then. My mom talked to his mom one day & it turned out that Bella was his former girlfriends dog & he never really wanted her. He never mistreated her. Just left her outside a little too much. After that he found her a home where she'd be happier. Poor thing just wanted to come over & play with my dog & me. I even tried giving her a chew like my other neighbors would occasionally give my dog to keep Charlie from barking. Usually Charlie was indoors or immediately brought indoors. But occasionally we had to leave him outside while gone. But no Bella's just wanted human attention & a playmate. We never even considered calling anyone to complain about it. Although being that long howling it was annoying. But it was more annoying she wasn't getting the attention she needed. That was very nice what you did. Especially since the owner might not have had any idea their dog was barking so much.

[@barbaravance6774]

We just had to put my Solid Black Imported German Shepherd to sleep in October. Our vet said he was poisoned. We had no barking problem, no problem with any neighbors etc... No one can access our back yard, there is a highway there. So they had to come right between our homes to my backyard. We are pretty sure who did it. But our cameras didn't cover the side of the house. They don't know what was given but, it caused his kidneys to fail in a matter of hours. The only person with a grudge is a woman who was friends with a neighbor who tried to break in while we were in bed @4:30am. She looked in the front window but he was solid black and she didn't see him. I heard the door and thought perhaps one of my sons had woken up, and might have been getting something from the car. But then I Niklaus growling and going nuts! I jumped out of bed and as I looked down the steps I saw my son trying to hold back a 100lb. Shepherd who wanted to eat her! He had snuck up and jumped on the huge wooden front door, trapping her between it and the storm doors. My son just happened to have forgotten his laundry was in the dryer and had woken up and gone to get in from our basement. As he came up he saw Klaus hit the door. Things could have been very bad for her. But it's my fault! She had come ringing our doorbell because she said she was accidentally locked out of our neighbors about 3 weeks prior. It was below freezing. So I let her in and gave her some coffee to warm up, while she tried to wake them. They had locked the door and gone to bed while she was outside making a call. And they didn't wake to the phone call. It was about 4:00am! I couldn't get her the leave. Everyone she called wasn't home or didn't answer. I eventually drove her to some friends house. I was trying to be a good neighbor. She saw me take medication. I'm a transplant patient. When we called the Police they knew by her first name who it was. And we KNEW HER! Her last name had changed. And so had she! I didn't recognize her as the girl who lived nextdoor to my Sister-in-law growing up! Well, we are pretty sure it was her.

[@myaachoom]

ikr. my very first dog was poisoned by our neighbor. He door dashed one morning (I was still asleep when this happened. I think I was only 6 or 7) and after an hour or two of my mom looking for him, they found him near one of our neighbor's front door all weak. She took him home and tried to find a vet near our area but sadly, at that time, the nearest vet we had was about an hour away and before they could even get there, he was gone. So my mom decided to take him home and wait for me to wake up so I can say goodbye and buried him in our backyard :/ It made absolutely no sense for our neighbor to poison him. They literally have a Dalmatian. My dog was a Dachshund and was just a young excitable dog, not even a full year old. I'm still pissed to this day 20+ years later.

Kwatili is absolutely GORGEOUS. And her name suits her perfectly. She looks like a regal princess. Poor Mitsy though....I can't even BEGIN to imagine the pain and fear she has suffered from something as simple as getting a microchip. They say its literally a million to one odds that something will go wrong when a pet has a micro-chip put in them, but clearly Mitsy was the exception to those odds. The CT proves that it was indeed the microchip that was causing her suffering. If I were her owners, I would CERTAINLY be taking this vet's findings to the person who put the microchip in Mitsy and DEMANDING they compensate them IN FULL for the surgery costs they had to pay to remove the chip as well as any other moneys they are out because of this person's egregious lack of ability when it comes to doing this procedure. The problem started when Mitsy got the microchip. It would have taken them an hour at that first visit when they saw her having seizures to do a CT and correct the problem. Her suffering is THEIR fault because they SWORE up and down that it COULDN'T be the microchip and it WAS INDEED the microchip.

I called the last vet in the yellow pages and said I know what's wrong, I don't need a 2nd opinion, I need a benevolent vet that will do an emergency spay when I bring her in.The nurse helped me with a payment plan and said bring her in . When I picked her up the vet said to me. Your diagnosis was right on. They all took the best care if my dog and I would not take my dog to anyone else after that.

Chris, Lisa and Andrew are the heart of this show. I know Chris is stepping down as host, hope the rest of the cast is staying! Excellent job guys. I've only found these videos 3 months and I'm totally obsessed!

[@iamfreebgm8856]

So Nice to see Tim Faulkner again. I had hopes to see a LOT of him when Series of Australien zoo returned. He REALLY pickles up the Ball between Steve Irwins passing, and when Steves kids took the Ball. Tim did one Helluva of a job. I liked n still like him. As much as I did Steve Irwin

I feel like that girls sister poisoned poor gizmo.

your not the only one. i have that feeling too

@@SummerRoseFox my sister would get beat up and kicked out over my fur babies!

I sure hope not! But I will admit that I thought she was a heartless *itch.

[@patriciahamel5674]

Cheetahs are my favorite animals! When I visited South Africa, I went to an animal rescue there. The cheetah handlers said that they are actually more like dogs and are not aggressive at all. In fact, one cheetah was not at the rescue that day because she was away being the flower girl at one of the handlers’ wedding.

[@raycromer8378]

Once again, Dr. Andrew is worthy to be praised. He’s a specialist unlike no other. Great work Andrew. You’re doing the unthinkable and changing the lives of so many pets that need hard to do surgery. You deserve all the adulation. Kudos Dr. Andrew.

[@jackwhitbread4583]

He's also the owner of the SASH practice that heals so many sick and injured pets every day.

[@Ava_Orchid]

I am usually concerned about a place with big cats doing meet and greets. I assume no one will be permitted to touch the little cheetah for payment and will rather be allowed close but non contact educational displays. I always cringe when I see people with pictures petting a lion cub as I know what likely happened to the cub and what their future brings is atrocious

[@leahwelscher5500]

Cheetahs are very easy going cats and behave more like a dog than a cat. Still it's better if the public is not allowed to pet them

[@PersoMena]

I work at a park that takes very good care of our animals, and when we got a lion cub (from a sister park, his mom was a first-time mom and had no idea what to do with him so he had to be removed from her for his own safety) we did have him brought out once he was old enough so people could pet him. It was a socialization thing, so that he wouldn't freak out over seeing lots of people once he got big enough to go on exhibit. Even I got to pet him. Honestly, IMO, as long as the animal is clearly relaxed and the person who's actually in charge of the animal's wellbeing is present and constantly monitoring the animal's stress levels, petting from visitors is okay - it's yet another way of making sure people can become invested in the protection of animals. Sort of an "I've touched this animal, it is so real to me now, I want to help protect it!" kind of thing. We let people pet our two-toed sloth (he was an old man and didn't care, our new sloth is a feisty young girl and visitors can't pet her yet if ever).

[@Ms.Byrd68]

@@tripsupstairs Yeah, but all it would take is one mistake and someone could get hurt. And the animal would probably pay that bill. I personally would prefer the public wasn't allowed to touch these animals UNLESS the animal comes up to them like maybe a 'Chimp' or an 'Ape' might. I saw a video a long time ago with a 'Brown Bear' that was posing with a woman. The trainer was right there but something about the woman irritated the bear and it attacked her, mauled her pretty good as I remember.

[@chrisx5127]

Cheetah are not big cat and they are not a danger to human. Please research before you type.

[@tammybritton4623]

I like how Dr. Marchevsky doesn't sugar coat anything. He tells it like he is. He doesn't make promises are guarantees.

[@BitchyQueen69]

I LOVE❤❤❤Dr.Chris Brown! I first saw him on Animal Planet,but then,he "disappeared? To find him again,on KZbin,what a treat! I love watching him with all the different animals and how sweet,gentle,kind & compassionate he is! I look forward to seeing all the other videos,but still wonder,will he go back to Animal Planet anytime soon? Thanks for all the great work you're doing,Dr.Chris! 😊👍❤

[@beckydavis1820]

I watch A.P. but never saw this. I have been binging on You Tube. I live this program!

[@lynnfrost1264]

The cheetah cub is so adorable.

[@lizverde4309]

I'd like to see an adoption/follow up video on the kitten. Dr. Andrew did a wonderful job (as always).

[@JazzmynKMC]

It's been my dream to see a cheetah in real life and when I'm older I'm definitely going to try my best to be able to pursue this dream!

[@TheLegendaryNinufa]

I would sue the hell out of the person (note; person, not vet) that inserted that microchip. I'm next level angry about how much damage that person caused.

[@shaakirahadams7860]

I'm loving these new episodes everyday cz I binge bondi vet every day wish there were more videos everyday

That baby cheetah was so pretty😍😊

Poor little Mitzy, good to see though that she got amazing foster parents ❤️ Does anyone know if there's any update to Mitzy and her recovery etc? :)

[@rachaelrogers2104]

I love it when Cheetahs purr. They also loves cat nip

[@zeroinfinity3325]

Oh! I met that cheetah at Monarto Zoo a couple of years ago! She's absolutely gorgeous, but she couldn't quite be the ambassador they hoped she could be. The previous ambassador cheetahs, you where able to go into their enclosure and have a real up close experience, but Kwatile didn't cope so well with strangers coming in to the enclosure, so just to be safe and avoid stressing her out, you can only meet her through a fence. You're still close to her and can pet her though. Was a really great experience. Keeper was very informative and you could tell how passionate she was about these beautiful animals.

[@cindiallain8542]

I’ve got to tell you how much I enjoy seeing the Drs., Tim and Andrew. Of course I love Drs., Lisa and Chris. It’s interesting to see all the work and different animals they work on.

[@simonalyneenderz3247]

I wish I had a lot of money. I would send that loving family the money and more for taking care of that kitten,Mitzy. Those are some Super Special people!!!!

[@karynelove96]

Cheetahs and meerkats are my favorite wild animals so the fact that both made an appearance in this episode makes me very happy

[@Nico6th]

That kitty has used up at least 3 of her 9 lives: got rescued from the streets, survived the insertion of the chip, and made it through the surgery to get the chip out. Let's hope she spends the other 6 lives pampered and spoiled.

[@Trini2DeBone]

I luv that Chris wasn't injured on his birthday by that wild animal. He's a pretty brave vet from treating crocodiles to that beast. He makes it worth watching these videos. Keep up the good work Chris.

[@wikita7]

Just when I was thinking of microchiping my cat, I just had to go and watch this episode. I know the odds are very very low, but it's scary. I feel so bad for that gorgeous kitten.

[@joligra]

Imagine how much all those tests cost...

[@karenbauguess8458]

The minute they said she has a seizure after being chipped I knew it was the root cause

[@susandscraper4770]

Wow Dr. Andrew is amazing surgeon omg he has a real gift

[@Krisna_K]

Poor kitty! My 2 cats were microchipped as kittens too! Never heard of something like this happening but that doesn’t mean it can’t happen! Hopefully this kitty got better and can live a long and happy life! Sadly there are always risks with invasive procedures!

[@henriettajones726]

SHE IS ABSOLUTELY ADORABLE! 🤗

[@tonytlreeves]

Happy Birthday to the handsome, kind, & hilarious Dr. Chris!!! 💗💋🎂

[@Hadria7777]

The cost of removing the microchip should have been covered by the vet that put it in.

[@ambermcfalls2464]

The baby cheetah is so cute!!! She looks like a stuffed animal! So adorable 🥰

If I ever have the chance at an exotic animal encounter....it will be with a cheetah. i have always loved big cats but Cheetahs have been top pick for years with their speed, their color, their vocals.

[@boopdedoop3764]

You can feel dr. Andrew's anger at the fact that a vet could be so careless and dismissive about the poor kitten's problem. I don't blame him. I'm in shock that this happened to the poor angel.
