What annoys me is if you’re on some kind of benefit, you just rock up at your local Blue Cross, have a shed load of surgery performed on your pet, Chuck £20 in the donations box……happy days.
Last year our cat came home with damage to his tail, apparently the term is “gloving”. The bill was £700 to have the tip of his tail removed. I’ll never get a newer bike at this rate :lol

We had a Vizla/Labrador who liked socks. £650.00 to extract a sock from his stomach (and that was a few years ago). When he became ill and died (of something completely unrelated) the total (including cremation) was over £2000.00.
These incidents (and many others) give me ideal reasons to work when the grandkids show up.  :lol :lol :lol
[/quote]Wow. That just underlines how expensive the true cost of pet ownership can be. Good grandkids avoidance ploy as well :lol .........every cloud
