The vet said had I waited even a day longer, Tibbe's lungs would have been far more invaded & the pneumonia very widespread. I was so glad I just got him in within 2 hours of the first wrong thing I observed. That early vet trip saved him so much suffering & serious illness & even worse. Just tell the vet up front if you do have financial concerns & I'm sure they won't do anything unnecessary & just do a check-up for any obvious things. |
Oh perfect! And I'm so glad that Tibbe is doing a lot better now!!!
