vet said it was 1 of 2 things... kidney infection that meds could clear up, or cancer of something i forgot. but the test was $95 and stepdad wouldnt pay it.

damn, you'd think they would just skip the test and give you the $5 worth of antibiotics for the kidney infection. a much cheaper test IMO. if he gets well you know it was the infection, if not you have him put to sleep then and you're only out the aditional $5 for anti-biotics, much cheaper than the $95 test

Good to hear mate. Reminds me of my cat the last time I had to take him in when his junk got blocked up.

Dont think the vet remembered my cat but he sure as hell remembered her. Funny sight to see as the vet slams your cat down on the examination table and says "down.. stop that...." just before he does one of those spine twists and cuts her arms to shreds. I swear my cat even winked at me seconds before the attack.

I was a proud "father" that day

You made him suffer, which alot of people do with their pets because they are too selfish to end their misery. Seen it plenty of times working at the clinic. I don't think your funny, I think I already said fool or something like that.

Dude,don't take this the wrong way,but GFY.

Your wife or significant other gets cancer,do you try to to save them,or just kill them?I tried saving her.AFTER it showed that the disease was terminal,I put her down...but not before trying.

You sir,have no business owning an animal.Oh,and before I forget...you are a class A jerk.

Have a nice fluff'n day.

NP, and of course I am.

And I was just happy to divert your sympathy hunt to seething posts of hate.

My mother's oldest is also on a low magnesium diet due to crystalization in the urinary tract. We almost had to get him an operation to, hmmm, widen his tract. Ya gotta decide which means more. $$$ or the cat.

Seeing as you've already poured the money into it, I think I know your priority.
