I was in a similar situation about 10 years ago. My cat which the kids and I really loved became quite ill. I did not have the money. I thought about all the pleasure and fun he brought to all of us and put the charges on my credit card.

Never regreted it. If I was in that position today I would either borrow or put it on my charge card.

I agree with you.

If my doggie needed the surgery and she would not suffer afterwards, the hell with the money. Lola is a member of the family and the joy and love I receive from her is way beyond any expense I pay to take cae of her.

For me, it is really about how this would affect the kitty and the rates of success for the surgery. If others view their pets as “just an animal” they just don’t get it, and that ‘s ok for them. For us who view the pets as special spiritual gifts, our feelings do count.
