Stay positive if you can, because things can work out. Personally, I applied for Care Credit and did a fundraiser through YouCaring. There are other options out there too! (also a reminder that we only signal boost and donate to certified non-profits, so we can’t help individuals in those ways, but I hope this post helps out because I know how difficult this can be!) SIGNAL BOOOOOSTPlease don’t ever put off taking your pets to the vet when it’s necessary because you can’t afford it. There are options. Most importantly, if you’re on a budget; decide on your number for what you can afford and communicate with your vet! I worked in client care at an ER clinic for years; it was my job to go over estimates and help people figure out a care plan for their pet. If people were polite and honest with me, I was almost always able to help them figure something out when their pet needed lifesaving care. Tell the doctor or the assistant what you can afford to do, and ask to go over an estimate with an employee. The people who take that role really do care about you and want to help you work it out. -- source link
