Aug. 1st, 2009 10:21 pmIn going through my mail, I found a reminder from the veterinarian in town about immunizations for Kuma.
I hate when I get those. For so long, we hadn't been able to get preventative care for our animals because of money issues. Finally we'd settled into a situation where things were more stable, and I had a workable budget and had enough of a handle on our situation that we could reasonably talk about budgeting these things things. And then Moiracoon lost her job.
I hate getting those notices because they have the pictures of the scared looking dogs and cats on the card and they talk about how your pets could be at risk for all these things, and I don't want the dogs to be scared, and I feel like a horrible person for not having preventative care done. I feel like I don't deserve to have animals that depend on me. I don't know why it's bothering me so much tonight. Maybe it's because I know Kuma is getting older and it's so important to me to make sure he's happy, but I just want to cry that I can't do these things for him.
And I was feeling so upbeat before....
