Chris- I did not mean to suggest that you were being cheap or lazy at Scooters expense when I posted that you should take him to the vet. I do think that when a fuzzy needs vet care, he should be taken to the vet, but every short whisker and extra nap isn't cause for a vet trip. I was just saying that I feel that if you have concerns about his health, you should always go to the vet. My statement about people substituting this list for a vet visit was a general statement, I have seen it happen a few times, and not directed at you. I am sorry if I caused you to feel as though I was attacking you, or your love for Scooter. [Posted in FML issue 0885]
