StarCat said:I'm confused, is the issue that she needs the operation to live, or so she will live AND still be able to breed? If she gets spayed, would that take care of the problem? I would try to find her a new home. People like that, shouldnt have animals. I am sure someone would take her and be willing to pay for her surgery, so many people out there who love animals, AND have money.

The vet that came to put Angel down today got out of her truck and went in the gate, bent down and scratched Wee behind the ear. He followed her all over the place "smiling" at her

CarolG said:I don't understand some of you. Just because they don't have the money for the surgery does not mean they don't love their dog and a lot of vets won't work with you on a payment plan. It seemed like you all thought the dog was abused. Who knows Maybe I just read it wrong.
elaine said:I can only speak for myself, but if you can't afford medical care for a pet, isn't it rather selfish to have one? How hard is it to put money away for an emergency or purchase vet insurance? And if you can't afford to do either of those things, then you're probably too strapped to have a pet in the first place. JMO.
People will have emergencies (break a bone, car accident, etc.) and most of the time insurance will pick up a good percentage of the cost. However, usually there will be some kind of payment the patient is responsible for. I had to make payments on my bill for surgery because I couldn't afford the $2K at one time. Does this mean I shouldn't have my cat? I mean, obviously I can't pay my bills, right?crabcake said:I do agree though ... if you can't provide adequate care for a pet (food, shelter, veterinary care, etc), you shouldn't have one. Same goes for kids.![]()
