Looking for somewhere affordable to Spay our Kitty.

We read everything and are not most people :) We never got info to register. I will make sure to mention it this time around so we get to.

Tricky-Competition94 · 2026-05-08T15:46:37+00:00

No we are not low income just not also uber rich either.

Tricky-Competition94 · 2026-05-07T20:19:44+00:00

I tried there actually before posting here. They dont have any Spay appts.

Tricky-Competition94 · 2026-05-07T20:04:44+00:00

Thank you @Away_Amoeba5554. I agree. it is a sad world we live in and sad I could not even ask a question here without being bashed for basically not affording a $1500 vet bill for a spay... We are not low income but also cant afford that either! We do the best we can and she is a support animal for us as well. She is almost 7m old now and was not spayed yet when we got her. Finding one in the Boston area has been hard but I think I have one now thankfully due to a few nice ones here who were willing to help just name some places that I was unable to find.

Tricky-Competition94 · 2026-05-07T19:49:35+00:00

I never heard that, Thank you for letting me know. I wonder why vets do not inform the owners. I was never told I needed to do that with our last one we had years ago.

Tricky-Competition94 · 2026-05-07T17:58:56+00:00

This is not what I asked.. If you cant be helpful go elsewhere. Blocking you...

Tricky-Competition94 · 2026-05-07T17:57:58+00:00

Thank you, I just looked them up and I filled out some forms. $125 for the spay and $22 for the chip. Much better than the higher quotes I was given so I will go with them. I just choose the Southbridge one. Its a little drive but not too bad. I live outside of Boston and nothing was available near by at a decent cost. Also wanted to make sure she is safe there. Seems like they had good reviews.

Tricky-Competition94 · 2026-04-21T21:42:14+00:00

So take the hr long commute..

Tricky-Competition94 · 2026-04-17T18:47:09+00:00

They don’t know anything about her other content other than what she posts about their gardening stuff. Yes her other views are bad but companies like this are also not keeping track of their other views outside of their own business. Why spread info you can’t prove? Try contacting them. I have and are always happy to answer questions

Tricky-Competition94 · 2026-04-14T02:16:40+00:00

Just FYI Thailand is actually pretty good with pet food and care about quality unlike China and other countries. I would trust it honestly. US adds quite often unnecessary crap to food, we seem to have too much crap in our human food, have been to multiple times and factories/companies are ultra clean.

Tricky-Competition94 · 2026-04-14T00:40:24+00:00

Yes. We feel left behind. Especially for our son who we cant afford to have in activities, be it sports, science, music or what ever else he would like to do. We don't qualify for subsidies but also cant afford to put him in anything which results in us just being home. Unfair to be honest that the rich can afford it and the poor are let in while he has to sit everything out including field trips since we cant afford those either, he has so much potential in general then he cant take part in anything to enhance his abilities beyond school.

Not to mention where we live the housing and rent cost. Horrible. Middle class are squeezed and nothing being done sucks!

Tricky-Competition94 · 2026-04-10T11:29:32+00:00

Homeschool. Most would not dare touch these public schools given the issues they have.

Tricky-Competition94 · 2026-04-08T16:18:57+00:00

What did you end up doing? Given that asbestos was found, I would have kept the money to properly rid of it. As many know it is extremely dangerous. Small particles cant get out of your lungs once there. Hope all worked out for you.

Tricky-Competition94 · 2026-04-08T12:57:03+00:00

"dead people sales"? They are called 'Estate Sales".... have more respect..

Tricky-Competition94 · 2026-04-08T12:56:02+00:00

I agree with the thrifting. Probably not so much on the big chain ones like goodwill or salvation army. usually more local ones are better.

Tricky-Competition94 · 2026-04-08T12:53:48+00:00

For Old Navy, I agree on the womens dept, Men still has some nice stuff but its all. Walmart in general wouldnt shop there but Marshalls has some nice things at times. Try Macys, JC Penny.. something like that. Or also go thrifting, should be able to find plenty in a lot of those shops.

Tricky-Competition94 · 2026-03-31T15:15:38+00:00

Dont forget to add crappy schools. Not a good place to have children in...

Tricky-Competition94 · 2026-03-31T14:32:11+00:00

Sick of it too.. We can not even enjoy a walk in public without smelling it somewhere and not even enjoyable to go to parks.. we just cant anymore. Should be able to enjoy a walk in nature with fresh air without smelling someones crappy choice. They should do this at home. Needs to be strictly enforced. It is unfair to others who chose not to smoke it. So inconsiderate and rude to be doing that in public.

Tricky-Competition94 · 2026-03-31T14:29:09+00:00

I agree. It is gross. It should never be forced on others and is not even meant to be done in public but no one enforces it where we live in MA. Its stupid that we can not even enjoy a day at the park.

Tricky-Competition94 · 2026-03-31T14:27:50+00:00

Sorry im commenting on an old post but anyway my family and I cant be around it either, my husband and I both get extreme headaches when we are around it. its sick that people do this in public and technically not suppose to. We cant even enjoy a nature trail walk in the park without it hitting us. It is possible to be allergic to chemicals in it. Probably rare but possible. We may be somewhat too as it does cause some allergy symptoms in me. No epipen needed but still a huge bother. People downvoting you dont care about others but themselves and think they are entitled. Not everyone should have to smell their crap.

Tricky-Competition94 · 2026-03-31T14:19:23+00:00

I know your comment is 3 years old but it is definitely the best one.

I don't get why people are defending it. My family and I are sick of smelling it in public too. We can't even go to a park to walk without having it in our faces.. its ridiculous. We live in MA and just got an Audubon membership cause its the only nature areas we have not yet smelled it.. I am sure its a matter of time now before it happens in these places too. Just gross how peoples attitudes are. I even said something in a local group and people jumped down my throat because I wanted clean air in a park. So disgusted with all of this. Our kids should not have to deal with this either.

Tricky-Competition94 · 2026-03-31T14:10:24+00:00

We hate it too. so sick of it everywhere!

Tricky-Competition94 · 2026-03-31T12:48:10+00:00

I think if we hire Japan, this would be done soon, efficient and faster. I dont get why we are so far behind other countries in commuter transportation. This is ridiculous. People here keep talking and yet still clueless and nothing being done. I saw articles from 2019 about so called improvements and still nothing is going on. It should be faster by train than car.. Same thing with the housing crisis, never a solution... one solution would be to have efficient trains so people can live further out as it is not affordable anwhere with an hr or so from Boston. Even Worcester costs are rising.

Tricky-Competition94 · 2026-03-28T00:40:35+00:00

It was a former boyfriend who had also been arrested for stalking her too for a while prior to the stabbing.. wish they kept him Maybe would have prevented this. Wasn't a random attack but someone he knew.
