My cat suffered a 3 story fall and I brought her to an animal hospital. After an xray was done the vet told me that there was a clean break in her leg but will need surgery.
I made a tough decision to put my cat down because she was 10+ yrs old. The vet refused to respect my wishes and gave me two options: do the surgery or sign my cat over to the animal hospital.
I reluctantly opted for the surgery. The surgeon informed me that my cat's leg was broken in three places and that she would require screws and plates and her liver was damaged and was not allowing blood flow. My cat never did not wake up from the anesthesia.
Now the animal hospital sent me a bill for $7,000 and I am wondering if I have to pay the full amount since I wanted to put my cat down from the start?
