What was your experience with this and did you end up mortgaging your home to pay the vet bills?

I knew a girl that spent $4,000 for a knee replacement on a stray dog she found and kept. frick that noise, I can get a new dog.

ETA: Be careful. They like to guilt trip you into all these expensive tests and treatments.

It's like a car. If the cost of repair is more than the cost of a suitable replacement, then the repair isn't worth it.

I've spent a lot of money on my pets for healthcare. I figure it's the cost of ownership.

A pet isn't the same thing as an inanimate object

Pet Insurance for the win. Probably a waste of money each month but I feel it's worth it to never have to contemplate not spending the money in case my dog needs it

Do what you can or will. Just don't be guilted into keeping a fricking cat or dog alive.
