Thank you, divine. I do know just what you mean. In my hometown (actually, home city) there was an elderly vet, he ran a very plain, old-fashioned clinic. He saw pets for next to nothing. He was generous about such things as selling a great, big bottle of an antibiotic to me when 3 of my cats had respiratory infections...the man would need to see only one cat, rather than making me drag all 3 cats in and charging me accordingly. I have fond memories of him. Wonderful sense of humor and so gifted with animals.

Anyway, I drifted off onto memory lane, there.

I am on Nextdoor, yes, and belong to several cat groups. It's unfortunate that there are no low-cost vets in my town. What there are are three clinics; two are standard veterinary offices with kindly vets and the usual costs. The third is an upscale affair where the staff does such things as serve clients (the people) little water bottles. Not my style and certainly not in my budget. I'm fine with bringing my own water bottle, thanks.
