That price is absolutely outrageous. There must be less expensive vets you
could go to. My vet charges $36 for an office visit. Check vet website in

Thanks, Tonja, me too.
The problem is he still lives to be up high on the cat perches.
Probably so that he can Lord over his kitty kingdom.
He is a bit wobbly so I worry about his climbing.

Susan, you've come to the right place. This bunch of folks will have a

This is such a bittersweet comment that you've made. It made me smile and
tear up. I think that you are all very special people to be going through
the happiness and sadness that this calling in life brings. I'm hoping for

Any idea what and where I csn buy an appetite stimulant? here is the vet visit
broken down.

It really is. Even my AAHA certified state of the art vet hospital -- which is
always on the high end pricewise -- only charges $59 for the exam fee. And
I'm in northern California where everything tends to be more expensive anyway.

Yes- you can refuse any part. Sometimes you really have to wrangle with the vet and you have to be firm and hold your ground. I went through something similar were I was out of work from mid-Jan. until mid-May and, in the meantime (of course- bad luck) my Felv+ cat came down with cancer- I found
Yes to this too. I developed a relationship with my primary vet and he let me hold a surgical bill for a while (still paying on)- because he knew that I was paying up front for chemo ($250-350 once a week, each treatment...and I was unemployed!)! That was a blessing and a rarity, but if you get a
Just to add a little to what others have said -- you probably shouldn't
have the cat tested for feline leukemia AND vaccinated for it at the
same time. Everybody has different experiences, but if the cat is
already positive for leukemia, the vaccination won't help and might
actually harm. And

I just came back from the vets after saying goodbye to my girl. The tumor
had eaten away too much at her eye and nose area that there was no hope. I
could have brought her home but it would only have been a few days and she
wouldn’t have felt good. So I went to the vets and said my goodbyes

These cats, if you remember, came from a house of 185 neglected cats.
Many of the cats were felv+.

You might consider shopping around for vets. You can call and ask what they
