Oh Beth, I am sorry for your husband’s reaction! My first husband was also very unsupportive of me. Every time I got depressed I heard variations of “you’re doing this to yourself, just pull yourself out of it”. There’s more but it’s irrelevant to your post.

I do understand having an expensive cat! I spent $7000 on my male cat because he had bladder stones and needed surgery. That was a one time (rather exorbitant) expense but I felt like I had to, my boy was only five years old! He’s perfectly fine now although I do need to buy special (also expensive) food for him. My female cat was just diagnosed with asthma a couple of months ago. I am unable to afford monthly treatments. She too is only five. I hate it when she has a full on asthma attack because I know she’s afraid and I have no rescue meds. I just pet her quietly until it passes but I’m afraid one day it won’t pass. If I was getting disability payments from my job I could at least get the rescue inhaler but they’re dragging their feet. I haven’t gotten any money from anywhere since April 28th.

I hope your cat feels better. She may not appreciate the injection but hopefully she’ll get over it! When I do have the money for a kitty inhaler I think I’m going to have to wear falcon gloves to wrestle it on her face
