Oh, I am so sorry. LES here too. Dear, sweet, beloved, cherished Scooter.
If your mother-in-law won't help, I will see if I can chip in something too towards the cremation so you can have his ashes.
Hugs to you, gentle pets to Scooter.

I guess...a second opinion won't help? I mean...is he sick with anything in particular, or just worn out at a fairly early age?:(
I'm so sorry for you and your poor baby.:(
When we tested everything early December, his liver results were bad. At that point, they said hopefully ScooterBug would respond to the antibiotics but they feared it was much worse... either a tumor, fatty liver disease, or cancer. I just didn't have the funds for an ultrasound.Quote:

I've spent today in tears. Hubby is on the phone now with his folks.
I will find a way to contribute also. I am so very sorry to read this sad news.
Crystal, I am so sorry. Scooter has been well loved by you - you are his heart human. :love::love::love:
LES :( I am so so sorry. I was COMPLETELY in the same place less than a week ago. I wouldn't want that hurt on anyone. The ER wouldn't take payments so I couldn't get Hoobbes' ashes. I do hope your MIL can help. There is NOTHING worse than seeing them suffer. :( Gentle hugs to you. I know exactly how you feel. :love::love:

Oh I'm so sorry. It's still fresh for me so I know exactly how painful it is for you right now. Prayers are going up right now that you will have some peace and that your MIL will help w/the vet bill. :love:
in-laws aren't very sympathetic b/c they're not real animal people... to them animals serve a purpose (hunting, etc) and aren't companions.
will keep ya'll updated when i make the appointment. hoping to wait til friday evening at the earliest.
I'm so sorry that you're having to go through this.:( Lots of prayers and positive thoughts are going out to both you and Scooter. Please take care. (((HUGS)))
Where can we send a bit of $ ? Do you have PayPal?
I am sure you will know at what time Scooter Bug wants to go.
On his last morning Tigris told me clearly:(

Crystal,
I know what you're going through. I'm still paying off a $900 vet bill from a combo of Maya Linn's URI and Mollie Rose's cremation. I'm very fortunate that my vet takes payments. Not alot, but whatever I can come up with every month. That's why he has such a great practice. He cares about his patients and their owners. I wish more vets were like him.
I'm so sorry to hear about Scotter Bug. My prays.
Melissa
I know what you are going through.We are blessed to have an independant Vet Dr Peter Marsales who knocked 400 dollars off off Michjaels Vet Bill, as hes not beholden to a Clinic.
Even so it was 700 dollars to give Mr Purr another chance at 18.
We know that Our Awesome Angels Army is with You and Scooter Bug, and are comforting thier Friends.
Its the hardest thing to see Our Companions get older and frailer and know that its Natures Way and that there is nothing we can do.
:(
Prayers for Scooter Bug and His Family in thesesad days to come.:love::love::love:
