"Pet Angel Fund for Spaying Gizzy et al"

[Scooter's Mom]

Rehoming is something I won't do. That's probably selfish of me to say, but at least where they are now they have me. And me is doing all I can for them at the moment. And I've already said this. And IMO, I'm being more mature than some of the adults on PT who are using caps and yelling at me. But that's just my opinion.

Jenn Well, still. I can't leave my mom. Many reasons for that.

It doesn't seem that you are doing all you can for them. Rehoming them is an option. It seems like you're just being stubborn and not considering that it could actually be the best thing for them.

You don't even know the half of it.

You don't even know the half of it.

Then tell us.

It's rather personal and then everyone would just hate me more.

Just spoke to Linda at the office, and so far there is has only been one donation in the amount of $60.00

Had there been other donations made?? I thought I read earlier that there had been more money donated???

[jennielynn1970]

If there's only $60.00 in there, I don't see why the low fee spay/neuter clinic can't be used... She could get the shots for Gizzie for that amount, and then do the clinic for the spay. That's reasonable.

[jennielynn1970]

I would assume they would. Hrm... she didn't give me a price for an office visit. I'll call tomorrow again and see what a visit costs. Shouldn't be too much. Not sure what they average down there, but up here at my vet (who is not part of state or national chain like VCA) an office visit is about $30.

I'll find out tomorrow.

Just a question.. if it's like pulling teeth from a gator to get your mom to make a call, drive somewhere, let you walk down the street (to the vet), or even talk to.. How are they going to get to the vet once everything is ready to go?

Not trying to tread on toes, just curious!

Apparently Bri's mom said that she will take Gizzie to the vet when the appointment is made and pick her up she is just not having any part in all the rest of it. Don't understand why she is willing to take her but not help with making a phone call. But really it is impossible to understand some people's reasonings.

No one here hates you , silly girl. We are all genuinely concerned for you and your pets.

If you read the thread from top to bottom you will see that people are trying to help you but are getting very confused about the whole issue - I know I am

[Roxyluvsme13]

I don't think being called rude is helpful, but okay then.

If they don't charge for the exam then we're all set to go and I will make the appointment tomorrow.

[kittycats_delight]

Then tell us.

I think if you want her to tell you then it is best in PM & if Bri feels she can tell you then she will do so. I have heard a lot of it and I am sure not all and it is very personal and not everyone would understand.

[Roxyluvsme13]

Thanks, Michelle.

It's just something I don't feel comfortable talking about and I'm pretty sure my real friends don't even know about it. Only two of my well trusted online friends know and it's just something really personal. And most people would convict me of more things because it's hard to understand.

[dogzr#1]

Yes, know 'the other half' and how personal it is. I don't think should have to share it if she doesn't want to. Knowing this piece of information, I can see why Bri is wary, if you will, of asking her mom to do so much stuff concerning Gizzie and all the other pets. I know my mom would get annoyed if I bugged her about taking me here and there for a pet, even if it was the right thing to do. Most parents, not all, think a dog is healthy when it's getting food and water. And by reading what Bri's mom said, I can say she is one of those parents. she is getting annoyed by Gizzie and threatened to throw her out on the streets. You have to take 'baby steps' in these kinds of situations because in a snap her mom can change her mind and just do that, throw her out.

I KNOW Bri is thankful for all of this help but right now she is under a lot of pressure- PTers are getting her upset as Michelle has said, she has to plan and maintain the fund set up, she has to do all this work regarding the vet and vet care (ie appointments etc.) and she has to do all this without bugging her mom that much. I think under all these circumstances she is doing a wonderful job.

I'm really sorry that they don't still offer that. At least you made the effort and I applaud you for that. I hope things will work out for you.
