My cat if off to the vet..

My poor baby has come in this morning and is limping, he has hurt his leg but I am not sure how badly until the vet has seen him. I have no idea how we are going to pay...
Debt free and plan on staying that way!!!!

    Must be that time of year, my big black satan of a cat came in yesterday with what looked like another head growing on his ear. After a very noisy car journey to the vet where he just laid there like a stuffed teddy and another journey home of the same decibel, he`s walking round as if proud of his battle scar.
    luckily my vets are quite good and let me pay monthly at an amount i can afford.
    Have you asked your vet if they will do that?

    Perhaps you can talk to the RSPCA - or PDSA (if they still exist) - I read on a post last year, that somebody was able to get their vet's bill paid by one of the pet charities. :confused:

    Hope your moggy is ok and its not too expensive, talk to the vets about paying off a bit a week/month, they are usually very good :)

    Good luck with your cat-one of my cats was diagnosed with diabetes in Feb and it's been a difficult time for him-bless him.

    PDSA told us they would help with vet bills over £40.00 if we were on council tax benefit.
