Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire My cat is sick.

I never have sick cats .

Rumor was a local gal had a sick kitty..........and it'd make you sick if you petted it.

And before some smartazz asks.......no, I didn't, and I wouldn't have even if it's been a healthy kitty.

Gd how cheap are you? Are you that ph ucking broke you can’t take a cat to a vet.. and you wonder why some or if not most think you are idiot..

My female cat is the best pet I have ever had, found her living under my shed....comes up and meows and kisses me if i raise my voice, lol, best buddy ever.

we have four outside cats and one inside one. we've had several over the years. had one black cat got hit by a car or something, wife took it the the vet, had a badly broken leg wanted 2000 to fix it. screw that brought it home rubbed volcanico on it for a couple weeks and after about three weeks it was getting up and after about 5-6 weeks it was back to normal.

Maybe, depends on the bill.

Shoot me if ya want, I ain't about to spend big money on a cat, just the way it is. I get 'em fixed, I get 'em their shots and I feed them, or it. If that makes me cruel then so be it.

Most I ever spend on a vet was $900, when our dog got injured.

Cat only started looking really out of sorts this past weekend, so it ain't like its been moping around obviously ill forever.



Some people's opinions don't matter all that much, considering the source.

Anyhoo... I think you're just PO'd on account of them Rocky Boys girls thought I was cool

We'll see, can't do it today, I'll bring it to the vet tomorrow.

Mom had one of her cats that lived to be 21. She loved that old cat like it was one of us kids

When Mom died last year, she had a 10 year old 15 lb female Calico that’s been fixed and declawed. It hasn’t lived outside since it was 4 weeks old when Mom found it outside abandoned.
My brother & sister both have big ole dogs.
So guess who got stuck with the cat. 🤠

She’s no trouble. She sleeps, she eats, she purrs, and wants her belly rubbed 3 or 4 times a day. Purrs so loud she sounds like a Harley Davidson. She’s sleeping in my lap as I type this. 😬

$55 plus a $35 rabies shot just to LOOK at the cat, whatever treatment to follow added on. I’m already out-of-pocket more’n that just last week for school supplies. Got significant expenses for auto repairs coming up shortly. Hey, I’m out hundreds every month on behalf of family members, I just ain’t feeling spending hundreds on this cat.

Cat has been stretched out under the car in the driveway since this morning. It is clear-eyed, not drooling and alert, just totally lethargic. Got home tonight and lay down next to the car and called the cat. It got up, walked over to me, didn’t want the water I brung, turned around after I peered it a bit and lay back down back where it had been. When it does move it moves normally with no unsteadiness or paralysis.I can only assume it got water where it usually is on the front porch today

Mike, get a eye dropper and give it some milk like that. We had to do that to one of Mom’s old cats that was real dehydrated. Got it up and going again after a couple of days, and then it started drinking on its own again.

Cats are for keeping barn mice in check. Heelers keep cats in check. Next question.

Animal's never known anyone else, and given you 5 years of its life.

When it needs you, you're too cheap to take it to the vet.

All anybody needs ta know bout you.

Poor kitty. You should call the humane society and turn yourself in.

You are so gd broke you can afford $90 bucks [bleep].. go stand in the middle of the road hope like hell dump truck hits you..

I was thinking it was sorta the other way around. I imagine there’s a reason that cat has thought so highly of me over the years, maybe I was always kind to it, who knows?

But you can help; send me $500 quick. I’ll send back the change.

I know..... I’ll give up a/c and hot water, and drive an old, beat up car...... oh, wait.......

Three years down, a year to go.

I’ll bet them Rocky Boys girls wouldn’t even give you the time of day, let alone invite you to take their picture. Just sayin’

Good idea, I’ll give it a try. Wasn’t interested in water again this am.

Milk, the pasteurized stuff, will most likely dehydrate him even more especially if he’s dehydrated already.

Oops didn’t realize that last post wast 11 hours ago, probably dead now.

Come on, Birdie, take your loyal furry pet to a vet.
Step up! How heartless otherwise.
