MaddyWatch: the credit card ad you'll only see here

Overnight stay at vet hospital over Labor Day Weekend plus abdominal ultrasound: $1,500.
Abdominal multiple biopsy at vet's office: $1,667.

Another overnight stay at the vet hospital for fever and low blood pressure: $1,100.

All-day stay at vet's office and multiple blood tests and vitals checks: $70.

Hearing the vet say that your sweet 10-year-old kitten's vitals are normal and stable and she can finally spend the night at home on your chest, purring and snoozing:


Priceless.



There are some things money can't buy.

Yay!!

That stuff you listed? That's what money's FOR, if you are fortunate enough to have it.

I'm glad she's back home, bless her. I hope that you enjoy this beautiful weekend we're having, maybe including some quality porch time with your loved ones?

Whoo-wee! Praise God!

I never added up what I spent trying to find out what was wrong with my beautiful little terrier mix Maddie. Probably about your tally. The vet hospital doctors never could figure it out, even when she died of it . . . but as long as there was hope they would get a diagnosis and a proper treatment, I had to spend the money and try.

Oh, I like the "Queen" pillow!

But it is good that she's home and purring awl wovver u noaw.

Maddy is lives at the top of the food chain in your house. She is the apex preditor who gets the best of everything.

She is just like Bonnie our 62 pound Airdale. Except with Bonnie it has been warts, bumps, injuries and oozing things. We have dogs because I am allegic to cats.

Miss K, is that "Squadeleine" as in "Madeleine, Bum-Badeleine, Tee-aggada-Squadeleine, Tee-legged, Tye-legged, bow-legged Madeleine?"

Did our Mommas go to the same elementary school? Sounds like the same counting-off rhyme words my Momma used.
