This is good advice but sometimes it doesnt work out!
I knew Lupin wasnt even registered with a vet, couldnt get from a rescue cos of his breed and what I wanted.
He arrived here in the early hours of Friday 1 Jul and by 1730 he was at vets and checked out absolutely fine.
On the Monday he was still fine and went for neutering by tues he had an upset stomach and a month on he still has, although there are now signs that with special food this is starting to clear...................if only I had eyes in back of head to stop him stealing food!
He is a little piggy ..........sigh
He is insured now too but until his tummy is settled its an exclusion and am hoping it will not be a permanent one.
I would like to add to Lizs advise, that insurance really is a necessity and I regret very much stopping the birmans insurance last Oct. Its always swings and roundabouts and I decided that I would creat a slush fund for the two of them but by January over £700 had all gone and that was well before Napoleon became ill again and of course I still have little Ducha who is 18yrs on Sat.
He only has 3 legs and broke a bone in a front ankle in Jan on the side where he has no leg, so was really a problem and like Liz said in another post, at the time, I also just wanted him to get better.
Her message however is clear and right and you must add up all the potential costs which includes insurance.
