There is absolutely no doubt that pets are an absolute source of joy and VC's puppy thread reflects that. In the days leading up to delivery of her early xmas presents, I couldn't help thinking about the possibility of something going wrong and that there might be a need for veterinary intervention the costs of which can be astranomic. Thankfully VC didn't have any such problems and everything in the garden is Bessie (Why couldn't her name have been Rosie? ).
Anyway, this thread was prompted by my daughter's experience with a young female cat(coincidentally named Rosie) she adopted. The cat was expecting kittens but got stuck in delivery. Her own vet was on holiday and on phoning his surgery, she discovered that but was also referred in the recorded message to another vet's practice. She phoned me and I took her there in the car with the cat. The vet decided a c section was needed but quoted my daughter over £1000. Difficult decision to make. Pay the money which she didn't have and couldn't afford or have the cat put down. She paid the money as most folks would for a loved pet.
I was scandalised and disgusted at the at the cost.
Anyway, that's my gums bumped and I'm glad my fears for VC's financial welfare were unfounded
