and you think gas is expensive

But did they cure their gas problems ?

"Holy Moly" IS a complaint.

Link?

I was referring to Dys' whine.

Yes, your 4-legged kids don't come cheap.

I was the ultimate push over and paid $ 500 for the dog's teeth to
be cleaned. That's it though!! From now on we brush his teeth
with pearl white. :wink:

Is your vet my vet of old? If so, snarl, probably.

Mine must have a fantastic retirement portfolio!

to be fair, I do believe I could have said "I can't afford that and he would have said, Ok, pay what you can and forget about it" he's a good vet and (yes osso, the same) so, perhaps by paying what i did, someone else may need his care and i will be helping them.

OK, dys, Pacco and i needed him, about killed me; Diane with big big support. Close to a year right now, but never mind, my own grief.

Skipping along, I liked the vet.

Most children's shots are now dispensed free of charge! But you stil have to pay for their food, upkeep, clothes, braces, school supplies, college etc. A pet is still far cheaper.

I don't have pets, I have Sally-dog and Dante-cat, they are my friends.

I am always shocked when I check out at the vet's.

I haven't taken my 2 cats in for shots for the last two years because of the cost. They're 7-year-old strictly-indoor kitties who never go anywhere. I even have a pet sitter come in to feed them when we're gone. I don't see the need for shots and exams anymore. And I am DEFINITELY not going to pay for teeth cleaning. I did that once...one cat's heart stopped during the procedure. I'm not putting my kitties through general anesthesia again unless the problem is life-threatening.

Taking my dog to the vet last week for allergy-related itching (he was scratching himself raw) cost more than my last doctor visit.

Do they have medical insurance for pets?
