IF in fact the pup was taken to the vet by the person who had it and nothing was wrong but fleas then my guess is the pup has a severe case of worms however, if the pup wasn't taken to the vet then it could be anything ranging from worms to heart problems and anything inbetween.

Personally, and not to be mean, I think the best thing to do it give him to the rescue since it's obvious he needs immediate medical attention which you cannot afford, so he can have a chance of life and happiness. Please, do the right thing for this poor baby.

I tend to agree with that. Sounds like it would be in the little ones best interest.

Will your vet not take payments at all, or borrow some money? If so then you could have this lil one looked at, you really don't want the pup passing anything onto your other animals and especially that litter of kittens you have...

Why do you have all these animals breeding and producing even more animals which you can't afford to care for? Please take them to a shelter or rescue.

god good ya know what i might as well not even post anymore comments on here because i'll i get is freaking ppl fussing at me. and i am not freaking breeding all these animals by the way!!! i live in a small town and everybody knows that well take in animals and try to find them a home. so ppl just kinda give em to us. the closest humane socioty is bout an hour or so away and nobody is gunna drive that far for them to probably put them animals down. ( the humane socioty sometimes has horses and they have the kill buyers bid higher then anybody else!!! so they go to sluaghter) so i dont like em that much. but yea it hink i'll just stop posting. all i was doing was looking for some help and not to be fussed at or told what to do.

mandi18 · 05-20-2005, 11:01 AM

oh i almost forgot. i ttok him to the vet in groveland and they just told me umm no we cant really do anything for the pup and i dont take payments. ( i know the vet helper) and she said that it would be pointless to pay out the butt for him to tell em he cant do anything bout the pup!

***Carrie*** · 05-20-2005, 12:51 PM

Why didn't you just say that you aquired these animals which were already pregnent? I somehow got the idea that you had these animals which then got pregnent? Based on what I understood to be the situation.....that you had more on your plate than you could afford, an animal with a hernia (!) which should have surgery, litters of pups and kittens, (some perhaps not well) I felt that the best thing would be to take them to a shelter. That may seem like "fussing" to you, but it's really thinking about the animal's well being. You're OK, aren't you? Isn't this about what's best for the animals?

It's admirable that you are taking in these animals and trying to find them a home. You say that everyone knows this is what you do. I didn't know that. But again...if you can't afford them in the meantime, maybe you've gotten in over your head. Is there a way you can raise some money for their care from your community?

You know, not one person on this forum was rude to you and simply gave you information in an attempt to help. How on earth we're supposed to know that you had gotten these animals after they were pregnant is beyond me since it doesn't say that in your initial post. Had it been you reading the post from someone else wouldn't you ask the very same things that had been asked of you???

i do not have the money to take him to the vet as i have just had a cat that had a litter of four kittens! so as of right now i am broke.

I just don't don't see how anyone could know that this cat wasn't yours. At any rate good luck and I hope all works out for the best.
