    • I know what you mean! It drives me crazy! To me my animals are like children and I would never have children if I cannot afford to bring them to the doctor. It seems a lot of people get it in to their head that loving an animal is good enough and it is not. If you really love the animal then you make sure you have the means to give that animal the very best including regular vet check ups.
