How Much Would You Pay To Save Your Cat?
Today, I was shocked to learn from one of our customers that her vet had tried to charge her $12,000 USD to save one of her cats from Feline Distemper (aka Feline Panleukopenia, and which is the feline version of Canine Parvovirus).
Whichever way you look at it, that’s a huge cost, but what makes this even worse is that the vet failed to save this cat, and was all for killing the lady’s other three cats on the grounds that they would probably die in a day or two as well.
Fortunately, apart from the fact that one of her cats didn’t survive, the rest of this particular story has a happy ending – she refused to accept the vet’s recommendation to murder her cats (although they call it “euthanising” or “putting to sleep”), contacted us and was able to save all three of her other cats using safe, chemical-free natural products, and for less than $150 USD (and that included the cost of overnight shipping).
We see this sort of thing all the time, although not usually with such astronomical figures, and, sadly, far too many people will believe what their vets tell them and kill their pets without even giving them a chance of pulling through.
Most vets aren’t aware of these herbal alternatives, and those that are tend to be very dismissive – not that they usually have any experience of such products, of course.
Previous to this, I’d heard from a few other customers that they’d been quoted $10,000 USD to save a dog from Parvo, but $12,000 USD, for a smaller animal, is outrageous.
So, if there is a lesson to be learned from all of this, it’s this: question everything, because in our extensive experience of helping pet owners treat both Canine Parvovirus and Feline Distemper at home, vets don’t always know best, and are all too quick to recommend euthanasia (which can cost more than the usually effective herbal solution) without exploring other options that can be both cheaper and more successful.
