I just took Jack in for a re-re-check on his UTI... the vet called me while I was at work and asked me to come pick him up early so that he could go over x-ray films with me.
Jack has stones in his bladder... and the vet says the only thing we can do is surgery so that they can analyze the stones to see what type they are.
The surgery estimate totals to $977.53
Anesthsia $81.90 General Health Profile $57.56
Fluid Therapy $69.10 Injection 0-20lbs (4) $84.28
Ward Care Overnight $35.76 Medications for home $55.69
Stone Analysis $121.61 Urine Culture & Mic(4035) $98.14
Cystotomy Feline $357.48 E Collar Small $14.86
For another $1,000 I could have stones removed if I had them. Should this surgery really cost this much? I love my cat sooooo much, I raised him since he was 2 weeks old. I know he needs the surgery, but I don't know if I can afford it.
I don't know what to do.
