I enjoyed talking with Adin Lang, and Heather Crawford at a workshop on the benefits for all from permanently containing . We covered the supporting this goal, the context and the how and why. There was so much ambition amongst the audience to get this happening now!
We really need to rethink what it means to be a owner in Australia and see cat as a basic responsibility. It's better for everyone this way - , and
So I smoked a little bit a little while ago while vaped a little bit actually.

Oh hey, have a late dog pic I suppose!
Just got home from taking my chihuahua, Dixie, to the . The visit was prompted by blood & clots in her urine that I 1st noticed 3 days ago.
$571 later, she has been diagnosed with a UTI, arthritis, & backed up poop. The blood test results won't be in until tomorrow to determine if her kidneys are functioning normally & to rule out diabetes. She did have a small amount of glucose in her urine, but the vet said that's likely due to inflammation.
Overall, good news.
Researchers say keeping cats safe at home would greatly benefit cat welfare, human health, local wildlife and even the economy and studies show that most Australians agree.
So, should cat owners be required to keep their pets contained to their property

You probably read that title and thought,Dang, what did veterans do But actually, Im talking about vets, animal vets. Veterinarians. You know, those places you go with your pet when youve got no choice, and you dont want your cat or dog to stay sick, or worse, pass away. At least, that was my line of thinking when I took my old cat, Dora, to the emergency vet twenty minutes from here.
She wasnt eating or drinking, and itd been at least two days. Id seen this before in a cat I also adopted, and had for about ten years. I knew I had to do something for her, or Id come home from work to something I didnt want to come home to.
Dora, days before I took her to the hospital.I only had the pleasure of Doras presence for a year, but she meant as much to me as my long-time cat, Sasha, before she too, passed away. Sasha is buried under the flowers out back, and Doras ashes are sealed in a wooden box on my dresser.
When I adopted her, I knew she had health issues off-the-bat, and I knew how to take care of her. But a year passed, and her health started to quickly decline. I didnt want to leave, and come back to find that shed passed alone, like my previous cat. I still feel bad about that. So, I did what any pet owner would do, and I rushed her to the emergency vets, because I wasnt going to have that happen again.
It was about 11 in the morning, I think. I put her in her crate, and drove off. The vets didnt give me any fuss, they took her right into the backroom and began looking her over. A couple of hours passed, they came out and let me know what was going on. She was having heart issues, and they discussed credit options.
I continued to wait.
A total of 11 hours were spent sitting in that little waiting room, wondering what they were doing with my cat. When they finally brought her out, they quoted me about 3000 dollars, and recommended I take her to the animal hospital another 30 minutes away. Wanting to be able to take my cat and get her the help she needed, I loaded up my credit cards and went.
The hospital took her in without issue, they said theyd be able to help her, although she likely needed some kind of heart surgery. They immediately started her on medication, and asked me what Id be willing to spend. I told them I really couldnt spend more than 2000 (even though I really couldnt afford to spend anything, but thats what I had left on numerous credit cards).
A week went by. I had some calls with the hospital and there were talks about her heart, and her organs beginning to fail. It became apparent pretty quick that there wasnt going to be a way to bring her home. At least not alive. So, when the day came, I went back and I spent a couple hours with her in a pet play room, and when they took her away to put her to sleep I still remember the look in her eyes. Like she knew it was time.
I think that ended up costing me around 1700 total, cremation included.
I have her now, here with me, and I want to be clear, I dont blame my cat for this. And I know maybe there are a lot of people who think its ridiculous to place this kind of importance on animals. But my cats, are my cats, and they are living, breathing, and autonomous. They have feelings, even if primitive.
The people I blame are the veterinarians who gouge pet owners when they know there arent any other options. Pay them, or take your pet home without care, and watch them perish, possibly even in pain.
Needless to say, I dont think Ive even paid off 1000 dollars worth of the debt they hit me with. I still have a long way to go. Im writing this because Ive , because I need to get out of debt. There are things I want and need to do in my life, that I cant do, because Im anchored by this never-ending cycle of theft from every single paycheck I bring home, for something I couldnt control. Because I gave a shit about my cat.
The page is kind of slapped together, but I just dont know why I didnt think of doing this sooner.
But thats my story, the whole story, and I hope I can make it out of this. Because I also have pretty extreme car payments, direct from Carvana, the, Well give you a 10-year-old car and hit you with payments as if its brand new people. But thats a whole other story, completely unrelated to what were talking about here, today.
Thank you for taking the time to read, and if anything, I hope youll share this around.

"About 90% of pet owners choose not to be in the room when their pet passes away. The vet shared that these owners leave to avoid witnessing the death, not realizing that these final moments are when their pets need them the most."
