Anyway, yesterday afternoon, when Gerry got home from work, I dropped him off at Terry's to lay claim to our table and I went off to the vet's to pay Ken's bill...............$125........gulp!! I guess that's what credit cards are for but they still have to be paid off. I got to talk to Travis (the younger vet and the one that does the chiropractic and the accupuncture), since he was the one who had seen Chicory. I had more information given to me in 15 minutes, on both cats, than I could retain. So I'll be hoping to pick Denise's brain and do some homework on my own. Either way, Christmas just got a lot leaner around here. But, in the long run, Cricket and Chicory are worth it. Now we just have to pay for it. -- Piggy's Pad

In reply to: Sandy 's message, "Depending on which insulin he needs and how much he needs, a vial costs between $60-90 but can last up to 3 months. Like I said, we're trying to re-work our budget and find the money for Chicory's expenses on top of Cricket's. And we have some unsettling news on Cricket. He was just in for another depo shot and immediately got another lump in the injection site, so we're going to have to try something different. Cricket's body is showing signs of not tolerating the injections, even though the steroid works wonders on his mouth. I know that the oral prednisolone caplets don't work with Chicory so I don't know where we'll go from here. I guess I have to ask some hard questions on the stomatitis board that Denise referred me to." on 11:52:02 am, Wed, 11/21/07

Oh Sandy, I feel so bad for Cricket...he has been through so much.....I see Ramona mentioned a liquid med..do you think this would work with Cricket? And, maybe, even if the oral ones didn't work for Chicory, maybe they will with Cricket? BTW do you think now that the lump he had before is also from the injections?
