my sister's male cat got a really bad UTI a couple years ago, so I feel for you there. he's never gained back all the weight he lost, and he spent a week at the vet recuperating. I couldn't imagine having to deal with that while traveling D:
that's definitely a good rule of thumb - I usually keep $2k or more set aside for emergencies, but it's been depleted quite a bit after everything that's happened this summer. thankfully I have enough to cover anything I need to do for Jynx (and I could charge it, since I don't keep a balance on my credit card, but it's not something I'd want to do), but I get really nervous not having my usual backup funds :/ I couldn't imagine not having that set aside, either - that's definitely a scary fact that so many people don't have emergency funds!
