that is quite specific, what did they run you?
Counterpoint: The pug.
Counterpoint The Russian Blue. A perfectly healthy breed of cat
Fair. My point was more that there are some breeds where it's not just "more likely" to have poor health.
Which "pocket" are we talking about here? Also, get health insurance for your pets people.
You can get it as cheaply as $17 a month. And the person I was replying to said your pet would "hurt your pocket" when they eat something they're not supposed to, implying that they would be paying for the expensive surgery. Most veterinary surgeries are $2K-$5k. Mid range health insurance is $50 per month or $600 per year, saving $1400- $4400 for a person who would be paying out of pocket otherwise.
