My little Cricket had chronic problems, especially in her elderly years. The last year of her life cost quite a bit of money. I would pay it all again. I was surprised, while my husband and I were going through that w Cricket, praying God would give us just a little more time w her, that ppl would say the oddest things to us about the money we spent on her:
"You could have bought a whole litter of new dogs for what you are spending on her." "Why would you spend that money on that old dog?"
She was a member of our family, but ppl seemed to think she was only worth what you would spend to buy a new one. Amazing.
Since I've joined YT, I have been surprised how much you see ppl not paying for vet care for their animals. The husband and I just thought we had cheap, unevolved relatives. |
