Dropping a couple grand on my dogs surgery are words I never thought I’d ever have to say…

Yeah I know the struggle. My dog's going to get a tumor removed next week and the vet estimate is already over 3 grand. It's the second time she's had to get that surgery for the exact same thing.

She was really whiny and grumpy after the first surgery - for good reason - though I felt so guilty seeing her so miserable. It needed to be done, and thankfully she was on so many meds afterwards that she mostly just slept.

Money's going to be tight for a while, but they're worth it. In a couple of weeks things will be alright and your dog will be back to his old self.

I remember when my male cat had this issue. He was originally a outdoor cat and the neighbkrhood cats often had bladder issues and didn't live long (like 9 years tops).

He became deeply attached to me deapite being one of many cats and when he had health jssues I broke down and gave up all my savings to keep him alive. When I visited him at the vet after the surgery, he was wearing a little cone around his neck and was so excited to see us. He kept dancing, and turning. Eventually he turned completely around in his dance and saw his reflection in the silver kennel and stopped dancing and just started at that. We looked at each other, and my godmother said thats my cat (he would get confused easily), so I tapped the metal floor behind him and he turned and atarted doing his happy dance again. We had to leave him a extra night, was sad leaving him.

I couldn't afford to buy a car because of him, but worth every penny.

Best to do it like this!

He's lucky to have you !

Is that with insurance??

Omg he was probably in so much pain ☹️
