I recently bought a cat from Special Petunias in Mo, I had been so excited to obtain my fresh small Himalayan hair ball. I paid $1,375 for that which was said to be a show-quality cat. What I really obtained for my $1375 was an bad cat with birth defects, Hydrocephalus, and about $700 in vet expenses so far. I've had the cat only a little over per month. I originally realized that my cat was very underweight, he was 12 months old and considered no more than 1 lb. He strolled in groups continuously, his eyes usually darting backwards and forwards, as though he were studying a guide. Our cat only appeared acutely irregular. I got him to my vet, who instantly requested her helper to deliver for his prior vet documents (during Rebecca's treatment). Our vet insisted anything really severe was wrong using the cat and mentioned that I ought to deliver him back, obtain a reimbursement, and never consider another cat out of this cattery. I had been ruined, when I have been awaiting weeks for his appearance. He was said to be an ideal cat... I named Rebecca of Nice Petunias that night. I informed her what my vet had explained and her guidance was that I ought to possibly place the cat along. She stated she may substitute him, but was not sure when. I had been positively shocked as of this reaction. At this time, I've settled $1375 for an bad cat, had him delivered, sustained a trip towards the vet and her guidance was 'you need to possibly place him down.' What type of individual was I coping with, was this lady crazy??? I got from the telephone call in holes. My fiance' chose to consider issues into their own fingers and called her back. That clearly did not move that nicely just because a couple of minutes later, I obtained a contact from Special Petunias declaring she'd do nothing. No alternative cat, no reimbursement, nothing. At that time, I named my vet and described the problem. I had been caught with this specific 'specialneeds' kitty, that I'd settled a lot of money for, and maynot perform a point about this. Our vet had obtained the fax from her vet by this time around. Her veterans statement resembled the irregular eye motion (nystagmus) have been discovered. Additionally, that my cat had experienced a respiratory disease, was somewhat behind the the remainder of his litter, etc. Rebeccais vet actually contained in her records that she'd asked Rebecca about promoting the cat. Declaring Rebecca's reaction was 'The potential customer understands he's ill, she nevertheless needs him.' The vet had actually described the chance of hydrocephalus in her records. It was terrible. Why on the planet did this lady promote me this cat? Having no choices quit, I chose to make an effort to conserve my small man, instead of set him along. Our vet began a number of assessments, trying to eliminate possibilities of what he may have. $700 later, we've fall to some prognosis. Our cat was created with Hydrocephalus/brain injury. The diagnosis isn't advantageous to my little hair ball. Nevertheless, he's not in discomfort at the moment, and so I haven't made the decision yet. The vet has informed me he might proceed downhill anytime. If that occurs, there's no method to save him. Don't with a cat from Special Petunias, the blossoms are collapsing and lifeless there!
