He's really, really sick and she doesn't have money to take him to the vet. I have like $50 left after bills so that's not going to help. Not sure what to do really. I've never had to be there for someone else's pet dying. I mean, obviously try to comfort them, but there has to be more I can do...

Yeah, I'm a huge animal lover myself. He's not going to die over some bs payment issue. He's not as bad now, the twitching is because he hasn't been eating much for the last few weeks I think.

You seem oddly happy that they have to put their cat down.

Sorry TC. Try to be there for your GF, losing a pet is fucking gut wrenching.

he didn't say the cat was dying, but that they were taking it somewhere for help. And I'd sooner be happy about taking a living creature out of misery rather than letting it suffer.

You gotta remove your own feelings from that kind of situation and do whats best for the cat.

I'm not sure if this is all vets/emergency clinics, but some literally won't give your pet back if you can't pay.

We had to put everything on a credit card before they'd bring our puppy out.

I know. I almost killed myself when my dog died 10 years ago. Had a plan and everything. I got better of course, but it was hell.

I'm looking at him now and he's relaxing in his carrier. I don't think He's going to die. Just needs treatment.

I like animals but spending money you don't have to keep them alive seems strange.

Have you looked into CareCredit? The company has a shady past (Synchrony Bank) and a lot of places don't accept it but I haven't had any issues with it. Just know that any interest-free charge needs to be paid off before the end of the promotional period or they will backcharge you.


I tried to apply when my current dog was sick and needed the emergency clinic. They denied me :/

But it took an hour to get my dog back becaused they wouldn't accept payment 2 days from then. Shady assholes tbh.

It's crazy. Essentially holding a family member hostage. Doesn't make any damn sense.

For a visit, yes. If the cat needs anything more complex than blood work and IVs, they can and usually will refuse to do anything unless you can front the money. :(

It's a BUSINESS.

Does Dominos deliver a pizza and let you pay 2 days later?

Gotta pay to play

Vets and doctors should be different. A cat isnt a fucking pizza.

I understand that but look. Medical for humans sure differed payment makes sense it's about life.

Anything else is a business, that includes pets. Pets are a privilege not a right or a necessity to life so if you want to pay someone to fix it that's fine but they can't be expected to do it for free.

What happens if you say you'll pay later then never come back.

Business is business unfortunately.

If you had no money Dominos wouldn't serve you either

Update: lab work just came back and he may have pancreatitis. Now I understand why he hasn't wanted to eat or drink water. I had acute pancreatitis myself and it sucks.
