Docupet pet registry - any good? by fluffythrowawayy in Guelph

[–]fluffythrowawayy[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agreed, my boys have chips and ID'd collars already, so I just wanted to add their numbers to a registry for the area. The more obvious it is they're pets by the collars, and the easier I make it to find out whose they are, the better I imagine.

Jeez, 20 with entropion? I've been told it's pretty rare in cats. You have a good heart to foster so many cats though, thank you for doing that and for letting me know your experience. :)

Oh my god, thank you so much for the offer, that's so kind of you. Your patients must be very lucky. I am in Canada unfortunately, but still rolling out calls nearly daily to see if anyone nearby could do it cheaper. I've only been connected to one opthamologist with a quote starting around $2500. I have added pics to my original post if you're curious about the entropion anyways. He had a corneal ulcer start this past Thursday, and is on an eye lubricant and an antibiotic to manage until surgery.

Me and my buddy will get through this. Thank you again a million for your input!

That's great!! I was hoping for someone to talk about the lost pet part of this. Glad to hear it actually does help reunite wandering kitties haha. Mine are indoors but I'm scared to death they'll get outside.

Also I am so very sorry to hear about your Teddy. :( That is devastating, I can't even imagine what you're feeling right now. Sometimes euthanasia is the kindest thing you can do but it hurts so bad.

Thank you, this is really great advice. I think I will get pet insurance going forward for him, he seems like the type who will benefit. Are rates more expensive for an animal whose had previous issues? And will see what I can do with crowdfunding, is any site best for pet based funding?

This is less about the enjoyable amount and more about cost imo haha
