oh believe me i hear ya ... i've put plenty of things down with a shot to the head ... it's just that sometimes its easier to have a vet take care of it. plus like i said, alot of places make it against the law to just shoot your pets nowadays.

and my parents are used to expensive vet bills, i would imagine their yearly bill is somewhere above 10k ... thats what happens when you have 6 cats, 4 dogs, 6 horses, 2 steers, 4 pigs, 3 sheep, chickens, turkeys, rabbits, ducks

shit we have prolly 30 or 40k in farm equipment just so we can grow our own feed for them.
