pet insurance is insanely cheap compared to how bad vet hospital bills can be. it is 100% worth it and i can say this from extensive experience.

i am harry posted:hugs to the goon who had this happen to their cat and they couldn’t save them it's sadly very accurate that people lose pets over poo poo like this. care credit is excellent to use in tandem as they delay interest and you can pay off most of it with the insurance claim, but not every everywhere will take it. the hospitalization costs are getting out of control now because there aren't enough emergency services and many places will turn away patients. new dedicated 24/7 emergency centers have opened up over the last few years and you can almost always get your pet in, but you're looking at a minimum of $2-3k to get in the door. depending on the surgery you'll often see costs balloon to $10-15k.

no lube so what posted:what’s the best way to shop pet insurance? This is doomsday economics. We can advise you to eat your pet after every morsel of food in your end of the world survival bunker has already been consumed and the outside wastes are ruled by cannibal hunter scavenger gangs. Insurance policies not so much.

$600M in stolen neopets is something like 2% of North Korea's GDP for 2022 you gotta wonder how much of that they could actually turn into cash though animist has issued a correction as of 09:59 on Jun 12, 2023 |

euphronius posted:one of the reasons birth rates go down as a a country improves the material conditions of its people arguably is because people stop having kids so much to make sure someone is there to take care of them when they are old I met a new neighbor the other night and learned that he had 35 siblings. Yes - 35. His parents are hopefully taken care of.

triple sulk posted:pet insurance is insanely cheap compared to how bad vet hospital bills can be. it is 100% worth it and i can say this from extensive experience. The last time I checked the premiums + deductible for my old rear end sick cat were comparable to what I spend at my not-at-all-cheap vet and that's without considering plan coverage details. Maybe it makes more sense to cover rare emergencies for younger/healthier cats. Senior cats can be insanely expensive. I had a good run with a guy who was almost purrfectly healthy (ha ha haaa) from age 10 to when he suddenly had everything fail at once just shy of his 20th birthday. I thought hey I'll do this again and got another old bastard with an easily treatable chronic issue and he just acquired more of those plus occasional random infections and poo poo. I will definitely think twice before getting another teenage cat no matter how adorable they are/sad their backstory.

There's nothing wrong with providing hospice care if your heart is up for it. I like adopting old bastards nobody else wants, even if it usually means putting them down in a few years. You can make the time till then enjoyable.
