Fortunately it escaped the fate of the rest in the litter, don't ask! His young daughters freak out so he takes it to the Vet. Vet's response.... "We'll check him out and call you shortly." They go home, buddy goes off to do chores, phone rings daughter answers phone and vet says thinking he's speaking to some one older in the family to approve said operation.... " The kitten will be OK but requires some major surgery, what would you like me to do?" Daughter says... "Oh that's OK fix him right away and call when we can bring him home." A couple of days pass, now it's time to get kitten. My friend arrives and is surprised with a vet bill for the operation, a little over a thousand dollars!!!! With that and figuring it had missed the fate of the others in the litter he paid it and immediately named the cat.... "Mr.Lucky!" :-) Glad to hear your pup will be OK. never like to see an animal suffer. ted ------ Unsubscribe or change to/from Digest Mode at: http://www3.telus.net/~telyt/lrflex.htm Archives are at: www.freelists.org/archives/leicareflex/
