Kitty on Steroids


Sweet Buster braved a shot yesterday to help calm his itchy skin. Poor guy's been lickin n scratchin somethin fierce these days. No evidence of fleas but the vet prescribed flea medication anyway. Plus, she made me feel like a bad pet owner. It wasn't pleasant for any of us. Buster seems better now though. :) ali



Yeah, AND, $200 later, we have to take him back in to probably get at least one tooth extracted, which may cost thousands of bux. What a freakin' racket!

What we thought Buster would be like at the vet:
What he was actually like:
(I guess the truth is really somewhere in between, though the judgmental vet might say the former was more accurate.)

I think it must be a vet's job to make you feel like a bad pet owner...that's been my experience anyway. Dana

I had to take Amy in about a month ago to have SEVERAL teeth extracted...ok, I actually AM a bad pet owner. I hadn't had her in for a check up in years and her gums were diseased...anyway, it cost just over $400. A crazy amount of money, but nowhere near $1000!
