Cat Forum / Cat Anecdotes / April 2005Back from TED
I've been meaning to ask... What is TED an acronym for anyway? I know it means vet....but???? Anyway, Chablis had an abcess just above her front left paw, TED had a couple of emergencies today so the poor little girl was there most of the day.... I think she's a little mad at me. She's still quite groggy & did the drunken stagger towards her food bowl when I got her home, when she reached it, she sat down in a rather ungracefull fashion. Funny & pitiful at the same time. So the little girl is back on anti-biotics for a while & I'm REALLY glad I got that pet insurance. With the location of this wound, I suspect her hunting habbits will slow down for a while.....

So don't let them catch on, and they'll start doing it all the time just for the pity/affection we give them when they do it... On another note, a couple of years ago, Tennessee went in for a dental, when we picked him up and brought him home later that afternoon, he was wanting to stick to me like glue, following me, doing his best not to stagger, all over the house. I went to the bathroom (nature called), and in he comes (just DH & me + cats =barely closed bathroom door). He tried to jump up to the edge of the tub (right next to the toilet), but didn't make it, and got stuck with his front half *in* the tub, back half *out* of the tub. Poor boy. He had the most pathetic "what happened?" look on his face... and all I could do was laugh. I'm a mean Mommy! > Mathew > Butler to 2 kittens: Chablis & Muscat > En Vino Veritas > ps. Murder Most Feline is still up for grabs.... Please, yes, pass that book on. We need to start putting names w/city & state (or country) in it to track it!

With the location of this wound, I suspect her > hunting habbits will slow down for a while..... > Mathew What pet insurance did you get? VPI or Petco or what? I gather that because of a wound, they paid since not any possible hassles or previous conditions or such? I am thinking of VPI because they are the oldest and biggest, Vet Pet Insurance. Petco is second but I think their coverage depends on the state and their secondary insurers so am a little more skeptical of long term. Treeline > What pet insurance did you get? VPI or Petco or what? > I gather that because of a wound, they paid since not any possible [quoted text clipped - 8 lines] > > Treeline I'm in Canada & I have petplan. Underwritten by SecuriCan. The basic plan is: $16.50 per cat per month. $100 deductable, after that it covers 80% of everything (except mandatory shots) up to $2000 a year. Chablis has had a few health issues & I started her on the insurance in Dec, as of this last visit to TED, it's allready paid for itself. Cheers Mathew ps. their website is www.petplan.com > > What pet insurance did you get?

Would know it would be a man who would reply. Now before all the women get up in arms, THAT's EXACTLY what someone said to me, SuzieQ or someone, when Jill McQ answered her question about how to fix a computer and missed that I had replied first. Sexism is sexism regardless of the justification. I was told I could not even mention I answered her query first since since men discriminate against women so therefore as a man I am not allowed to complain, so said Joyce who is not posting this year, which is fine. Her argument was profoundly stupid. Until all women have salaries equal to men I cannot say anything to correct a misconception, however minor. Well, well, well. I think it's time to prove it. I got angry but that does not help matters. And if women discriminate against men if given a chance, we have not made any progress. And if I have to prove it, I will dredge up the posts from Google. I think I will dredge up all the posts to show that 2 wrongs do not make a right. In any event, it's VPI in USA, same company. Thanks for your reply. I am concerned about vet insurance and VPI is really the longest and most well-known of the insurance carriers so far. >>> What pet insurance did you get?

I am confoosed. > >>> What pet insurance did you get?

But I said here what the women said to me. And if it seems grossly unfair, then that's how it seemed to me and put me off. But the best thing is to calmly just prove my point since it's archived in Google. Two wrongs do not make a right is the basic point involved. And if men discriminate against women, then women, given a chance, do a turn-around and discriminate against men, what have we learned? Nothing. >>>>> What pet insurance did you get?

Nothing. I am still confoosed. I thought it was a thread about insurance. It doesn't matter though. > I've been meaning to ask... What is TED an acronym for anyway? I know it > means vet....but????
