Is it cruel that I won't pay for a vet visit if the animal is "totalled" like a car and repairs (treatment) would cost more than buying a replacement?
I remember when I was little and my mom took my hamster to the vet and they put him on some antibiotic that cost more than 30 new hamsters would have cost. Even then I didn't see the point.

listen sikko,
most people have pets as members as the family not as possesions.
i find it discusting that you would care more for your money then your pet
i dont think you deserve a pet i think you should just put a coller on your doller bill or put that in your hampster cage

Well, I have to say you make it perfectly clear that you are not an animal type of person. I think most people bond with their animal and don't mind spending the money to help their pet. That being said, I think if your pet has a little ot no chance of living very long, I agree that euthanasia is a defiantly an opinion.
It's difficult for me to understand how you could think of a replacement being possible for your pet.

Hi!
I'd suggest you talk to your city's animal control office! They more than likely have a responsible caring person who is willing to take and give your pet a good home as well as proper medical attention! That's their job, and that is why we pay taxes! I don't think putting an animal to sleep because of their health costs is fair! Try it!

Humans don't cost anything to make, almost any adult male & female can get one, delivery time may be nine months, mom may need a little more food, but other than that it's essentially free. So would you not go to the hospital if you got sick? It'd almost certainly cost more than you're worth!

properly each vet is unique in rates because of the fact the wherein you reside, a tremendous city vet will value greater desirable than a vet in a the city of a pair of hundred. yet purely off of what my vet ought to value for the above concerns, jointly as I presented my canine in they charged me approximately 80$ for seek for suggestion from with all pictures and deworming. As for a DNA confirm ought to bypass, from the vets around suitable here that I seen on the information superhighway web pages, they value approximately 75$.

It sounds like maybe you shouldn't bother having pets.
On the other hand..I think there are some gray areas- for example if attempting treatment still offered the pet little chance of living, or if they are suffering you should put them out of their misery. HUMANELY

If you love your pet, then you should take it to the vet.
You took on a responsibility to care for this animal when you bought it. You need to honour that.
Just because the animal is cheap, doesn't mean it doesn't deserve to live

It's a life, not a car.
Just keep in mind, that if your parents only put the amount of money they paid for you into you, you'd likely be dead, since vaccinations aren't free.
Give up your pets. Stick to a nice pet rock.

When you were little maybe mommy & daddy should have not taken you to the doctor and let you die. It would have been fun for them to make another heartless kid. Sex is cheaper than a doctor bill....

if you love your pet, then it's worth it to pay the vet visit, rather than get a new one to replace the one you loved.
i love my pets, and would do anything to save them.
