Why is it that people think a dog is more deserving of medical care than a cat? I know this is not the whole of the population, but I've even seen it in my own family. My sister Natalie spent $10,000 trying to keep her Great Dane alive - he got bloat, they had the surgery, he was in ICU, and then afterwards he bloated again and they euthanized him - but when her cat was sick (which she's somehow now better), she said, "oh well she's old. We're not going to go into debt over a cat."
WHAT?!?!? Why is a cat less deserving of medical care? I don't understand the mentality. A cat is sick, they just let him/her go down the tubes, but God forbid you let the dog go down the tubes. "We'll just let our cat go at home." But not the dog. Is it size? What is this? I don't understand!!!
