Hola peeps!

I've been smashed the last couple of weeks.

On top of it all, my pesky little furry friend did her ACL and cost me over $1500 for surgery and related medicines and treatments.

Fun times!

Once upon a time, my past big bad self would have said that I would have put a dog down if they were going to cost that much for surgery. However when they come into your family they also steal your heart!

awww She is so cute, with the freckles and all!!!!!!!!!!

Yeah. the Vet bills can be a killer, but hey - I have done the same and paid the $$$$

Wishing a speedy recovery. What is her name?
 
Thanks guys. Her name is Maudee, I didn't name her :p

The hardest part is that we have to keep her as inactive as possible for as much as 6 weeks. At the moment she is still a little groggy and feeling sore and sorry for herself, so it's not that hard, but soon she will want to be running around and jumping again.
 
Don't worry I have a 9 week old kitten and I've spent like 400 in vet bills already!
ACL in dogs is starting to sound as common as when humans do it.
Do they replace the tendon with hamstring in dogs too?

Oh what a sweet little girl, hopefully she is on the mend soon. Aren't pets so manipulative making us fall into unconditional love with them straight away? Even if the vet can do it, it's hard to put a price on their health and happiness. I've put plenty of dollars into pets over the years myself, I can't not!

OUCH!! both for Maudie and for your wallet!
it will be touch keeping her calm and limited movement ... good luck with that idea (ok for vets ...they can put them in those wire cages and that restricts movement ... but at home .. not so easy!
 
Hope she's recovering well @bleachy_dude

When we got our kittens, on top of all the usual bills, at 8 weeks old the girl needed an $800 hernia operation. They also said she would never be allowed to go outside and would need to be an indoors cat. Six years later, try telling her that, she jumps from the ground to the roof, and from rooftop to rooftop.
 
I love a cryptic crossword . I am not very good at them though :(
Where are you? In Melbourne you can buy $5 books by DH (setter from the Age - on Thursdays?) from newsagents and he explains how to do them and then gives you about 50 puzzles with solutions.

Sydney, and yes I have tried some guides etc and was taught by my grandmother who was phenomenal at them. I will need to retire to give them the attention they deserve, I think.
