Our vet (who we've had all of two weeks, since we've only had Ruby two weeks) came joggin by with her dogs a few minutes ago. Hubby and I were outside doing yardwork and she recognized us and stopped by. I told her that Ruby had had her babies and, of course, she wanted to come in and see them. (From her inspection they all --including tiny little Layla--got a clean bill of health
.)
We got tho chatting and I asked her if it would be possible to make monthly payments to her office and just maintain an positive balance in case of emergency. She said she had never heard of anything like it, but that its a great idea and she'll get it set up. So from now on, we are going to pay the vet like a regular bill (we decided $50 a month). Adding it up, we figured that we will have enough saved for regular maintenance and then thousands saved by the time Ruby and Shannon get "elderly cat" problems.
I'm just so thrilled. Maybe ask your vets if they would be willing to do the same. They keep a steady cash flow, and your pretty much covered in an emergency!
