I work a low paying job and pay for all of the care and necessities of 4 large dogs, including vet, food, collars, toys, etc.

I understand an emergency (ex:Raven's Cancer) but this is something that every pet owner should be able to pay for - or they should not own animals.
I see a voice of reason. Kay I know you and I don't see eye to eye a lot but you are RIGHT on the MONEY (no pun intended) on this one....
I just found this thread tonite and was sooo STUNNED that someone would have the BALLS to ask for money for BASIC vet care for their pets I couldn't even comphrehend. Congratulations you made me speechless, and that sure as HE!! does NOT happen very often.
I am truly, deeply, honestly very very sorry that you and your mom struggle like you do. I very truly am. I know you think I am a big fat meanie but I really truly am sorry you are dealt with this hand in life, it sucks for you. And while I understand that you LOVE your animals, you have to do what is best for them and honestly sometimes giving up that animal is what is best for them. And if you and your mom are in such dire financial straights your animals can't be getting the care that they need, and I am not talking even basic vet care, I'm talking food. If you are struggling to put food on your table STOP BRINGING IN MORE ANIMALS!! 2 dogs and 2 cats (plus???) are a lot for a person with a good paying steady job.
Pet Talkers are a generous bunch of souls but this is just flabbergasting to me....
