Update-this is why I work As you may have read in my post over the weekend, Sissy caught a mole, "finally earning their keep". Well Sunday night Sissy started coughing, acting like their was something wrong with her throat didn't eat dinner and woke up coughing during the night.
Being the over protective mother that I am, first thing Mon morning I was on the phone to the vet and got a 5pm appointment yesterday. Well, the vet couldn't find anything wrong with her throat and though maybe she may have inhaled dirt digging for the mole and put her on antibiotics. She drew blood work to see if there is an infection brewing and as long as she was there drew heartworm blood work.
While she was checking her throat she found Sissy has broken off one of her teeth and needs it extracted, plus a dental cleaning but she is also due for her shots but since she isn't feeling well couldn't do it yesterday. So after being on antibotics for a week she needs to go back for her shots and then back again for a dental extraction and cleaning. So this lousey mole snack cost $248.00 yesterday.
My husband has retired but I still work (I keep telling him I'm not as old as him). He keeps telling me, "you don't need to work". Oh, but I do, I want to make sure my little ones have everything they need. You never know when things like this will pop up.
