Was told to give up on Luna because she's too expensive!

Catty1, thank you so much for doing this for Luna!!

moosmom: I'm very sorry to hear about your poor little Marina Mar. She was still so young!! But I think it was the right decision not to do the chemo.

Gary, please stop blaming yourself for what happened to your Pouncer! I'm sure you did what you could at that point. We all need to make our experiences, also with cats. I know I made a lot mistakes with Aysche, my first cat. No one ever realized how sick she actually was. Little was known about FIP in the early 80s, but we all live and learn... Here's her story if you are interested...

Oh, forgot to say...

Medusa, I didn't mean to justify, it's just that I'm so frustrated about the entire situation that once I start speaking about it, I cannot stop... I'm sorry for that. It's just hard to believe that it came this far, but it's going on and on and on... like today when I read that the prices for dairy products will rise by up to 50%. OMG!!

There's absolutely no need to apologize. That was my point. This is one of the hazards of internet talking; sometimes it's difficult to get a point across.

It's only natural to be concerned about rising costs, etc., especially where the care of our furkids are concerned. We have to have a life, too. Of course, we want the best for our pets but we need to take care of ourselves, too. Otherwise, life becomes narrow and pinched and then we can become resentful. You're doing everything right where Luna is concerned, that's for sure. The way I see it, you're a responsible pet owner who wants only the best for Luna. How can anyone find fault w/that? No worries, Kirsten.

It wasn't like this in earlier times that all my thoughts are circulating around my existence. It has just become so hard these days. Even without Luna and Lily, life wouldn't be a picnic. I never meant to sound as if I could live a life of luxury if they weren't here. Actually, they are the only luxury I have!
