its all about values and priorities.
and when people think "its just a cat" or "its just a dog" - do we wonder why the world is in the sad condition it is right now? I don't.

People should feel guilt about buying expensive cars and clothes and wine

article we read about a woman who spent $25,000 on a kidney transplant for her cat
and was interviewed about it, and then she got all sorts of hate mail about
doing that when there are humans who can not afford it. She said she does not
drink, gamble, go on vacation, or buy anything expensive, so why can't she spend
her hard earned money to save her cat's life? My partner and I were so
upset-- why don't people send hate mail to people who spend $25,000 on a car-- why
is that somehow ok and spending it save a life is not?

You are two different families, in two entirely separate situations. You
love and care for Jelly Roll, and will do whatever you can to help him.
The family love their little girl and will do whatever it takes to help
her. We would all go crazy if we started thinking otherwise. Lots of
love and hugs to Jelly Roll, and hope the treatment goes well. Kerry
