I say this because I just went to the Health Department and let them give me a tetanus shot. (My shots have to be current to work at the Animal Shelter). My last tetanus shot was in the Great Flood of 1993. They said if you had contact with flood waters that you could have a free shot. I recall being splashed by flood water, which is gross, but I am grateful to have been living in a 3rd floor apartment and not having my home get flooded. I got my free shot and let it lapse only 4 years until my booster.

The nurse who gave me the shot was good. She got me talking and I felt just the lightest touch. I looked at my arm (I never watch them give me shots) and she was putting the band-aid on. I thanked her for giving me the best shot ever. I expect a little soreness, but so far I am fine.

Now I am thinking about getting Twilight her shots in case I brought some disease home from the Shelter. As an indoor cat, I am rather reluctant to get her any vaccinations. She also REALLY hates to leave the house or ride in a car.
