Well, as I was reading my friends page just now, my cat jumped up on my bed and started shaking his paws. They were extremely matted and yellow. Stand out on his pretty white fur.

Yeah, we go to the Banfield pet hospital inside of Petsmart. What had happened before was we had adopted a cat from a shelter, and he passed away when he was only 4 years old. And we had to take him to the emergency room because his heart was failing and his lungs were filling up with fluid. We had no idea that he had a heart condition, and had we been more vigilent with preventative care, we'd probably still have him.

Before him, we had a cat that passed away, but we'll probably never know from what. He had this weird wasting disease where he couldn't eat and lost so much weight. The vet we went to was really slow at getting his blood test results back, and manhandled him. After he passed, they didn't even bother completing the test so we would at least know.

So we decided that it would be a good idea to buy insurance, because the bill was $1300 for a cat they couldn't save. So now it's like whenever he sneezes I worry x.x;;; But the plan includes free office visits whenever, 2 blood tests, dental cleaning, free vaccines, and discounted perscriptions. My sister pays it per month, so I can't remember the price. But it's quite inexpensive.
