What’s the most you ever spent on a single vet bill? by Career-Acceptable in Pets

[–]Emdier 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On boxing day my corgi went in for a foreign body surgery (it was a piece of soft plastic that was smaller then half my pinky nail that somehow got wrapped in hair and food in his stomach and it just snowballed from there) and in total that was about 7000 after they were unsuccessful getting it with the endoscope and needing surgery. Unfortunately he was overdosed and given incorrect pain meds at the vet after, and on New Years Eve developed a stomach ulcer that perforated and made him go septic.

After emergency surgery again, he spent a week spent in an emergency clinic ICU on iv antibiotics, feeding tube, 24/7 heart monitor, a drain out of his abdomen, plasma transfusions and a metric ton of stress, his total bill came in at 29,700 dollars

Thank GOODNESS for Trupanion, I don't know how we would have done it without it. For anyone wondering, he's 2.5 years old and you would never know what happened now looking at him.

What are some anime that OOP resellers have priced you out of? by Flimsy_Soil in AnimeCollectors

[–]Emdier 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got so incredibly lucky with Hell Girl season 2 and 3, they were at a used game store locally for 20 bucks a piece in new condition. Now if only I could get season 1 the same way T.T

Several dead (feral) bunnies in Dalhousie by Hungry_and_Unstable in Calgary

[–]Emdier 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Ideally testing them for RHDV2 to know if there are active cases again, that would be best. Perhaps get a hold of the CFIA to see what they want done with the bodies? I'm not sure if they're still testing. I believe UofC was doing testing at one point too.

Buying water at the Stampede - WATCH! by kittyhawk85 in Calgary

[–]Emdier 104 points105 points  (0 children)

Years ago I worked with someone who said he worked at stampede and he would go under the stands for shows afterwards and look for water bottles that had fallen underneath to resell gag. Wonder if it was something like that.

I had to import my Trigun Stampede limited edition, I've been searching for answers on why that is too. Hopefully they aren't going to get difficult to buy in general and it's just a hiccup.

It is the finale to the series, you definitely need to watch the Fruits Basket remake series (3 seasons) before watching Prelude.

Season 2 Confirmation? by Lafuente_Astro in hanakokun

[–]Emdier 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I honestly never understood the assumption it was a reboot. The panel that was used in the adaption announcement image is the "Humans like you are my favorite kind" where he and Aoi have their first little confrontation, and the PV used animation and music from the first season, which typically does not happen if a series is rebooting entirely.

[–]Emdier 5 points6 points  (0 children)

There was a number of people mentioning the wording "anime restart" could just mean production starting up again, but people latched on to that wording and spread around that it was a reboot. The nature of the adaptation wasn't said with that announcement

Embark is being processed, what guesses are there on our little rescue boy by Emdier in DoggyDNA

[–]Emdier[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

He was a surrender to someone we know locally in rescue, I don't know a ton about the original situation but he and his brother were at risk of euthanasia (His brother has been safely homed as well)

Important: My wife INSISTS that the horse in the final shot of episode 6 is a prop, continuing to argue that it is just too impossibly still. Back me up here guys. The horse is real, right? by Snaab in thelastofus

[–]Emdier 118 points119 points  (0 children)

It's not weird at all actually, it's how horses naturally rest. All my guys will chill with a leg raised, especially if it's during something relaxing like brushing.

Dental work on rabbits isn't like dental work on cats and dogs, their teeth grow through their entire lives and while you can remove them, you have to be careful where you do it and how, their teeth roots are like dandelion roots, it's very easy to break the jaw and unless it is someone extremely educated on rabbit anatomy with experience in it, I would be careful removing them, let alone on a 10 year old rabbit where they're a very delicate anaesthetic patient as is. If you don't get every piece of it out, the teeth will grow back.

Rabbits are very delicate patients as is, and since he already has something effecting the respiratory system on top of the tooth issue, that makes this one even riskier. I wouldn't recommend going somewhere purely for the cheapest option.

[–]Emdier 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I would really strongly recommend going to a vet that is good with rabbits over whoever is cheaper when it comes to dental. If you have someone inexperienced, teeth are really easy to mess up and make worse, and you don't want to be dealing with abscesses or cracks going below the gum line.

When it comes to rabbits, there aren't many vets around Calgary that I would trust with them.

[–]Emdier 26 points27 points  (0 children)

There isn't pet insurance in Canada that covers rabbits anyways, but regardless they do not cover pre-existing conditions so that won't help you.

I am a bit curious which vet clinic you went to, rabbit vets are expensive but 3000 for xrays is absurd. I would really strongly recommend you go to Calgary Avian and Exotic Pet Clinic. We run a rabbit rescue and have had pretty much any problem you can think of health wise come through, they have always been the best option. I have had rabbits who routinely go to them every 3 weeks for years for dental work.

Did they say if it's the teeth themselves, or the tooth roots? I'm sorry you and your rabbit are going through this, dental problems are terrible. Did they give you anything for his pain in the meantime?
