They made you pay up after euthanasia?!? The only vet we've been to that was that insensitive was the emergency vet. Anywhere else, they comfort us & say they'll send a bill or we can come back.
I've had rats whose lungs were so messed up that the inhaled anaesthesia, before the heart injection, took 5 times as long. So sad, but such a sign that it was irrefutably time.
Quite a while ago, I made an offer that we three can lend you money--that's still open. And includes money to adopt a new ferret (right?) from a rescue. There is no replacement, but the hole in your heart won't be quite so empty. LJ message me!
Actually i was made to pay BEFORE they did it. while i was standing there watching him try so hard for breath
thanks for the offer but i think it is going to be a while before i try to find anyone to replace Aku. i have some other fuzzbuts including a newer rat but as much as i love them Aku was my buddy. he was there for me like so few creatures have ever been. so i am going to wait a while. Also i need to build back up some sort of buffer money wise before i do anything.
How insensitive. Thank goodness that on the few occasions when I was in a similar situation, the vet left me alone to say my final good byes before taking care of the bill, and the office staff was very sympathetic through it all.
