    He is more and more frail as the day goes on. He's having trouble walking now.

    I talked to my vet's office... it's $65 to have him pts... and an additional $180 for cremation & return to me. If I don't have his ashes returned to me, it's only $75.00 for cremation. But he's my heart kitty... I'll do what I have to... but, I have always said his ashes would be buried with me. I love him so much.

    I just don't have the money... hubby is going to call his mom (who is NOT a pet-lover at all) and see if she will pay for it. Please, pray that she will help. I can't let him suffer.

    I just have to decide when to make his appointment if she says she'll help.

    I will miss you forever, my sweet Scooter Bug. You were my best friend. 9/21/1995 - 1/23/2010
    Goodbye, Oreo. Gone too soon. 4/2003 - 9/12/2011.
    Farewell & Godspeed, sweet Jadie Francine. You took a piece of my heart with you. 11/2002 - 8/8/2016

    Prayers for Scooter...your dear dear boy. Please PM me your paypal addy if you have one, or the vet clinic.

    {{{hugs}}} I am SO sorry this is happening. Love that sweet boy, and give him some cuddles and tummy rubs for me.

    Our goal in life should be - to be as good a person as our dog thinks we are.

    Thank you for the siggy, Michelle!

    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?

    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.
    Blessings,
    Mary
