Cats are expensive. We know that. You need to know that when you're getting into pet ownership. Even if cats prefer cheap toys over expensive high-tech ones and sitting in the boxes the trees came in over sitting on the actual trees, some things will be expensive with them. Vet visits with your cat can be expensive, cat food for our extremely picky eaters can be expensive. 

Every pet costs, and that's something that we need to expect. Even if we don't expect… the scenarios in this thread. Standard vet visits… that's fine, necessary. Emergency vet visits when something is wrong with our cat… of course we'll pay, without a doubt. But a vet visit that ends up costing us a couple hundred dollars, if not more, because our cat has a leg cramp or gas… sigh, sometimes, we really wish we could talk to our cats so stuff like thid, funny as it is, could be avoided.

    Cats… are both the worst at letting us know when they need help and the best at complaining. Seriously, if something - god forbid - serious is happening to them… if they have a fever or a virus or something, we will not know about it until we notice that something in their behavior changes.

    But if our cats experience a mild inconvenience of any other kind - a bellyache, a cramp, gas - oh, they will complain about it so hard, you will literally think that they are on the verge of passing away. And you will take them to the vet despite their protests, and the vet will tell you… "Here's the man with the $450 tummy ache."

    Harry Flugleman @FluglemanHarry ... My cat had a 3200$ turd my friend. The vet brought in the X-ray and said I gotta show you this. You see this?? This long thing? Ya. That's a turd. I asked can we pull it out? He said only with a stick of dynamite. SWEAR TO GOD. The poor girl got out through the ringer and she's now on a daily human size dose of miralax or else she can't poop and boy she lets you know when she can't 9:34 AM ⚫ Jul 13, 2024 6,470 Views

    Ryan @ryanb0608 Here's a guy who also had a $500 "he just seems sad". To be fair he was 16 at the time so I thought it was the end. Now he's on his way to 18 and doesn't stop annoying me, but I love him.
