I'll probably change my mind later on but right now, i DON'T EVER WANNA HAVE ANOTHER PET AGAIN. Mafanness. Cute but mafan like shit hell. And so expensive, u might as well slit my throat.
Brought them to the vet for vaccination with friend n lil' sis. Turns out my pup had more than the normal pimple-like thingie on her belly. Have to take antibiotics.
Then got ticks. This is one long story. Happened last week. Maid asked me to buy the tick shampoo. So i looked for the shit. Vet A reccomended some shit that costs RM65. Can only be used three times. And each time would only last a month. I stubborn, i dowan, cuz i know my father never spends that much on my last dog. Buy the RM12 shampoo.
Didn't work, poor Coco still had the stupid ticks on her.
Today, vaccination time. Go to vet B cuz that's the one friend prefers: reputable, well-known. Got the vaccination. And the stupid anti-biotics. Then they reccomended some stupid spray shit that costs RM60. Thought wanna share with my friend so ok la. RM30 each.
Bill added up to RM85. Parents complain. Father, who is a doctor, says he doesn't charge PEOPLE that much. Mother said that my SISTER'S vaccination costs RM44.
Today's jab didn't even include vaccination agaisnt heart worms!
The ticks are supposed to fall off but it's been 9hours and they are still on her. Damn it lar. If we are still supposed to pick the thicks off, then what for wanna pay so much for the damned to hell spray ar?????
And the spray right. Used it only once so far. On one small little puppy. Ok, she's bigger, 4kg now, but she's still SMALL ok?????? Used it on her ONLY ONCE AND THE DAMNED THING IS HALF FINISHED.
What shit!?
And then turns out NOT sharing the cost of the spray thingie. Have to pay up another RM30. Like shit. My parents sure angry lar. And if i pay on my own, from my allowance i'd surely suffer. It'll be RM30+RM12 for the ineffective shampoo, it adds up to RM42, over 1/10 of my miserable allowance.
Spend so much money and I still can't hug and carry my little puppy bear cuz of the stupid ticks.
Then i told my father everything, he paid the RM30 for me BUT it comes along with a long lecture that makes me feel like i'm the kind of daughter who maxes out credit cards. Miserable.
I HAVEN'T SHOPPED SINCE APRIL OK????? If u are a typical guy, just imagine not watching football for over a month!!!!!!!!
Yes, i am angry and u be thankful my vocabulary of curse words is still limited to damn, shit and hell.
Lets out a deep breath. Feels better after Blogging.
Last words, THINK before u get a pet... A lot of responsibility, time, effort n money.

hmm.....dunno how effective the tick jabs are..
but with my dogs I've always used just the normal tick shampoo and then plucked them out manually..
a bit gross i know but a lot cheaper...
and the dogs are worth it though..
hehe...
Ouch..yea..you need some time and money to invest in your pet..anyway..what can life be without our pets..anyway..you have been tagged. See my blog.:)
Serene! Yup, that's why i started my post with "i'll probably change my mind later on..." =)
The jabs are not for the ticks, its just vaccination... no idea against what even!! The spray was for ticks.
Marcus, true... i AM an animal lover. But i guess i'm also a VERY selfish and stingy person. Will take a look at the tag! =)
Exactly. And ppl were asking me (when I wanted to get a dog) why I had to think so much and do so much research. ;)
See...keep pets only already so expensive, effort and time consuming...imagine havin' to raise a child in the future!! -_-!
I think you stick to the shampoo one la.. it works... and like serene said... use the shampoo and manually pluck them out.
Don't be so mad eh... there are expenses for everything in life :)
Haha, Joey, so thats why u don't have a dog??
Sassy gurl, haha, yeah i know!!! My mom says at least it's HUMAN, Hahaha, and our kids are SUPPOSED to look after US when we grow old. Pets can't do that
Jess, yeah, that's the normal way lar. Just so mad that i'm so stupid to believe the spray can make them just drop off. RM60 gone down the drain.
hey.. cool =) didnt the vet recommend u the 'frontline'.. its like little tube thingy that u just need to squeeze it between ur pup's shoulders, this last a month.. should ask ur vet.. they are very effective..
Er.....no? And btw, that person was YOU la...muahahahahaha
aiiks. ticks r troublesome. they attacked my dog for more than a month i think, got super frustrated at tat time.
anyway manually plucking them coupled wif d shampoo is really the best way. just pull them off ur pup n squash them!kill them so that they can't breed n lay eggs(this suckers breed wif lightning speed!) n the shampoo will help u get rid of the remianing eggs on their skin.
good luck girl!
Bea, no the vet we go to for vaccination did not reccomend 'frontline' or anything like that. Straightaway reccomend the spray! Less ticks now already, but still got =(
Joey, haha, ok! I'm really stupid lar, unlike u. =P Actually right... if my friend didn't give me the dog, if i didn't feel so much indirect pressure, i wouldn't be so stressed over little things like ticks la. U see everyone's dog also got ticks what, n they're not dead...
Soo Imm, very frus right!? Hug n carry 4 a short while already psychologically feel itchy...
And thanks arrr, that's what everyone has been saying/does/done, can't believe i fell for the useless expensive spray!!
