At-home veterinary bloodwork?

I was wondering if anyone knows of any veterinary providers that will do an at-home blood test for cats in the area? My cat has HCM and vet visits really put stress on his heart so I try to limit them to 2x a year, but he needs a follow-up blood test and it would be really ideal for there to be an at-home service for this.

Appreciate any leads!

A bit of rock is stuck in my heel

4 days ago I got a bit of stone embedded in the heel of my foot whilst walking in a creek. Did not notice it until the next day and was unable to get it out with tweezers or a syringe as it is fully under the surface of the skin. I have since been avoiding walking on my heel as it is painful to do so (no change in pain since it first happened) and I got a tetanus booster 2 days ago as mine was 10 years old.

the wound previously was a white circle but this morning I woke up with it now this wine red color. No change in shape or size of wound. My question is does this need to be addressed by a doctor or can I let it take care of itself?
