Yah. The main vet clinic I use has some magazines and some books out. It's actually quite boring
There is a partition half-wall mostly blocking off one corner of the waiting room, mainly to separate DA dogs, or cats that will get nervous with dogs, so we just sort of take over that half of the waiting room and entertain ourselves. (One of the clinic cats is allowed to play with the ferrets.)
The clinic the rescue uses/my secondary clinic just has a ton of books, and the most boring waiting room ever.
