A cats almost demise

Have you ever had a moment with a pet where you realize that it's just an animal and you may have to just swallow a big emotional moment and let it rest rather than foot a $600 bill so that it can have surgery. Of course this moment usually occurs when your spouse is out of town too. Well, that was my week. Poor cat has crystals. The vet said that if he doesn't pee overnight then he has to have surgery. Great. Just great. This is the cat that we like. The one who loves us. The one who lets the kids pull his tail and lie on him. Please just pee. Waiting for the phone call. Waiting...waiting...I can't wait any longer. I call them. Yessssss. He peed. So only a $270 bill and new food that is $20 a flat. Stupid cat. Wait til my husband gets home. Alright cat, come here so I can pet you. Good cat.
