I don’t even think it’s worth it to do chemo on humans.

I’d rather have a huge supply of morphine personally

ftr i'm not a pet owner by choice for that reason though

cause i know i won't really be dedicated to looking after it

i remember when my mom's cat got sick as **** i lamented on MB about having to pay the vet bill to try some medicine on it only to have to put it down like a week later and i got some **** for that on here from the MB boy scouts... this was back on my old account.

but that was the truth...whenever i went over her house that ****ing cat was always smelling like piss and having weird fits... i could tell easily the cat was doomed.. but the vets thought they had some bright idea about some 70$ antibiotics that might do something... 70$ and a week later plus another $100 or so for the euth and im digging a hole in my moms backyard to bury the damned thing... ****ing vets.

honestly after watching my dad go through it im inclined to agree.... but where it has the possibility of actually saving your life i could see it. He had terminal bone cancer. There's no coming back from that.

but I personally have a hard time even seeing myself bringing an animal to get a $1000 surgery. forget about chemo.

for $1000 I could get 2 brand new pure bred puppies.

but like I said... maybe i'm cold-hearted.

$1000 gave my dog ten years of life.

I don’t want two new pure bred puppies so it’s not altruism

On the other hand - about vets - you gotta understand, Father Time is undefeated.

Dogs like all organisms try to live but I think they just want to die when it’s time for them to die. Long painful artificially delayed deaths are a human hang up.

how old was your dog at the time and what was your financial status?

there are plenty of times in my life when I wouldn't pay $1000 for a dog that will live 50 years. again, priorities.
i agree that in many cases death is more humane than just prolonging life... in dogs, humans and everyone else. but i find the pointless prolonging of life in humans more understandable. like you said dogs aren't going to meaningfully interact with you, anyone else, or life in general from the death bed.

Rescue dog so I don’t know

I had some money at the time

If you got $1100 $1000 is terrifying - if you got $15,000 man you’re such a good person for loving your dog

Some people think poor people shouldn’t own dogs. Idk - I think some homeless people have dogs that love life - they’re outside exploring all the time

Who knows?

Dogs just like that be fed. That’s like 99% of it I figure.

If you die your dog isn’t burning incense and saying a pray; it’s looking around for food.

Those stories like the dog waited in one spot for such and such a time for its master to come back. Secret: Someone was feeding that dog right there. Otherwise it would be out looking around. A dog ain’t like oh no hawk is in the er. The dog is like where’s my ****ing alpo.

Glad you found a system that works for correcting your sleep cycle, adi (and I hope all went well on your trip). I'm hyper-sensitive to anything tranquilizing. My doctor once prescribed me a sedative, and I couldn't function the next morning and had to miss work and nearly slept the whole day away.

I was a bit worried about not falling asleep last night, but conked out as soon as my head hit the pillow.
