It really depends on where you live what the regulation is. Oh. And they let me know in email that it has increased to 50$ per cat. So yeah I have no idea how we are gonna do this
anesthesia is expensive. And alot of clinics won't use if it the producer is low cost. Because then you need to intubate and all that. The clinic I worked at. Low cost spays/neuters was a injection of sedation and a pulse monitor
They do use anesthesia as the animal has to be fully sedated however they don't necessarily do blood work or provide pain management afterwards. But the animal does have to be fully sedated for those surgeries as it's done by a licensed veterinarian
Oh yeah. It gets expensive. And then if there is complications my local low cost clinic will act it was not their fault and will not fix it. Even if it just needs antibiotics! So I have to take those cats as well to my own vet. Which is absolutely why I am paying over 300 for my small dogs neuter with them.
The other three we had to locate the kittens first and bring them in for socialization and then catch the moms to have fixed and then released back out
We did the same thing when we were at our apartment complex. There was six females running around having babies left and right so we got three of them caught, spayed and then adopted because they were pretty friendly
But I have posted on the neighborhood Facebook that in order for me to continue- they are going to have to call the clinic and donate directly to the cats scheduled for that week. I gave info on how fast they reproduce and what kinda damage they can do
Sam, my husband and I have a soft spot for animals in rescue/need so we try and help as much as possible because one female cat having kittens can turn into a few hundred and a span of like 2 years
They charge 25 for spay/neuter and 10 for rabies. 100 for everything so I just opt for just the rabies, we bring back the tamed ones later for rest of shots
I have been struggling with an insane amount of drama lately. I had a huge fight with one of my lifetime friends about a stealing incident. And I've been recently struggling with someone who I've learned is quite toxic. She's been my friend for years. She's my neighbor, and one of the few equestrians that live near me and share my strong passion. I can't go into details without losing my mind, but anyways, I am on the edge. And the smallest things have been ticking me off. I feel like a pond of negativity is pooling in my head, and i know that It'll tip soon. I understand that I am being quite vague, but advice or a few words could really help. Thank you <3
Floresta, think about what is important to you. Is this fight about you had with your friend about stealing still worth having your friend for? Is this toxicity of your other friend worth having your friend? (shoild be a no IMHO). Letting go of friends sucks. Sometimes hard times make it stronger, but sometimes you just need to let go and thats okay. You cant reread the same chapter and expect for a different outcome. I know you'd miss your friend, but that's completely normal even if the friendship was filled with toxicity. You need to do whats best for you and I promise time will heal
So sorry to hear this. I lost one of my "best friends" a few years back and it wasn't easy. It turns out she was also a very toxic person (and still is to this day). It really hurt at first, but after a while you come to the realization that toxic people really aren't going to help you in life. Make the decision that is best for you :)
