One time about 8 years ago we had 2 cats. One had some problems and was peeing all day long. My wife takes it to the vet and they keep the cat to run some tests. So I come home from work and as I come in the door the phone rings and it is the vet. She is telling my wife the cat has some kind of urinary tract infection, and a kidney thing. Then she says the cat also has cancer in the jaw and needs about 2500 in care. I say to my wife ask her how much to put the cat down,at the time money was tight and we were saving for a house and paying off some bills, so she relays the question. They tell her like 250. to put the cat down. I tell my wife to tell them I will be right down to pick up the cat, and I will take him hunting with me tomorrow and put him out of his misery. The vet tells my wife, lets see what we can do, so they treat the urinary and kidney thing, and and it was about 800. The cat lived to a nice old age before it had to finally be put down. I hate vets because they play off of your emotions, and that his huge in this country because we humanize our pets way too much. In europe most dogs don't even sleep in the house, unless it is some fancy smancy poo-poo breed.
