Something has been bugging me... need opinions I started thinking about something and I need opinions on if I should say something. I've posted on here before that my parents got my Rat Terrier when I was 12 and my Cocker Spaniel when I was 16 for our family. Jasmine (the Rattie) was always my dog and I took her with me when I moved out. Caz was my sister's dog and when all of us moved out, they decided they didn't want dogs anymore so they were going to rehome him. I wasn't having that so I brought him home with me too.
For some reason, my parents never got Jasmine spayed when I was a kid and when I moved out she was already 11 years old and I was scared she was too old to go under anesthesia. In January, she got really sick (at age 15) and we took her to the vet kinda expected her to have to be put to sleep because we thought her illness was just old age. At the vet, we found out that she had pyometra and she needed surgery right away. The surgery was going to cost $700 and there was no way that DH and I could afford that. My mom agreed to put the amount on her credit card and I could make monthly payments to her. She did; however, pay the first $100.
My question is: do you think they should be responsible for helping us pay for the surgery (besides the $100) since this could have been prevented if they would have got her spayed when I was a kid? or should I just be happy with the $100?
Another thing that irritates me is that awhile back my sister moved back home and talked them into getting 2 new dogs.
What do you guys think? Should I say something or just leave it alone?
