"Pet Angel Fund for Spaying Gizzy et al"

[Ginger's Mom]

No, not every animal needs all of that work done. The Pre-Op, spay and pain meds are only for one cat. I don't know what shots are required for cats (are bordetello, distempter and rabies shots required?) but obviously the feline shots aren't needed for the dogs. So when you take those amounts posted by Jenn and arrange them to fit the appropriate animals it may come to around $730.00 (I didn't try to figure it out-not sure it really matters at this point).

Two cats need all of that, one dog needs shots and spayed, and one dog needs shots, as far as I can tell. Skye isnt spayed either. And I don't think she had had shots.

I think all that's required by TN law is the rabies. So, if we just got the spay, rabies, and the blood work, it should come to about the right amount in the fund, should it not?

The cats really don't need everything since they're indoor cats anyways.

You'll need to check with the vet to be sure he will do it without the shots. But if nothng else, if she can be spayed, it's better than nothing and may help with her behavior. Plus there can't ever be an oops.

More than likely they are going to want to do pre-op blood work, and then the spay and you'll want the pain meds, because face it, if you're getting cut open, wouldn't you want to have the pain meds. Animals feel the pain, so they do deserve the extra couple bucks (or a movie ticket) that the meds require.

The vaccinations, except bordetella, should be mandatory. Rabies especially.

I'm still floored that there isn't any shelter organization that offers low fee stuff.
