I also know people who go way too far the other extreme, spending way to much.
Thanks...and yes, this probably describes me....
LOL, well that is your right, but when you make a comment like that here, or anywhere for that matter, you are probably going to get opinions back that state some don't think that is very smart:) I'd be one of them.
Animals are precious indeed, and so much depends on what the prognosis is IF you spend your whole wad....IMO, no cat is worth morgagaing the house, in fact no animal is. I'd have to have a 100% guarantee the animal is going to recover before I'd spend a large amount. And my large amount is probably a lot less then yours and depends on the animal...$50 on a cat, $100 on my dog, and maybe $500 on a horse....it take a heck of alot of selling by someone for me to spend more then this. Any more then that I'd have them put down, or if the problem wouldn't be a problem for someone else I'd sell them. Does that make me a bad person, and unresponsible pet owner,,,,no, makes me a good steward of my money.
