queer and loathing in the nation's capital
Ok. Grover’s vet bill has come in. The total: $100.46.
Looks like the anti-biotics were more than I thought they would be.
I am hereby begging accepting donations so that I will be able to eat for the next week after paying his vet bill tonight. I appreciate the kind that jingles, but prefer the kind that folds, if you know what I mean. :)
Good lord.
Wel, took him to the vet. Here’s what we got back: Grover is 3-5 years old and already neutered. He’s missing most of his front teeth, probably from fights or human abuse. He has a bad ear infection, but should be cleared up. Absess on his left neck from fight wound. He probably hasn’t been on the street that long, maybe a year or so tops, otherwise he’d be in worse shape. His missing teeth will make it hard for him to defend himself and find food. Gives him another year if he stays on the street.
Well, I’ve finally gotten around to getting pictures of my bike and of grover. Grover is the little kitty that lives outside around our house. He’s super-sweet and it’s obvious that he’s been an inside pet before. He’s really friendly and deserves more. :( He’s outside now and it’s storming. I went to look for him, but I’m not sure where he goes when it gets like this. Anyway, I’ve decided to find him a home, since Dan wont let me bring him in. I’ve found him a foster home, but have to wait till I get him his shots and neutered. (Discounted via Animal Rights for Life.)
If you would like to take him in perminantly, I’m sure he’d appreciate it. My only requirement is that you must keep him from going outside anymore – evne if he really wants to in the beginning. :) He’s 6-8 years old, and has been lving on the street for about 3-4 years. Our neighbor used to let him inside sometimes, but they moved and left him here, even though they promised they were going to take him.
Here’s some pics:
