Aaaand I'm back in debt again. There's this senior guinea pig at work and a customer noticed he had an abscess but bc he's so old the boss said he'll either pay to have him euthanized or I can have him. So obviously I took him. Spend 3 hours in the ER just for them to not have the correct tools to check for an abscess and paid almost 300$ for 14 days of meds. And that just covers antibiotics.
Tomorrow I'll have to call to get a professional evaluation to see if it's worth going through with surgery and if it is that will be another hefty bill.
I also took my hedgehog to the vet today and it turns out he has quill mites (species specific so it won't pass to my pigs luckily) and had to get his medication only to find out it's 2 doses each a month apart so I guess my rehab of him will take a few extra months. Oh well. Such is life when you're spontaneous and refuse to let an animal suffer under your watch
