If you get it you should use this link, and it gives you 10% off ;)

I think it'll be awesome, now that I don't work in a vet clinic. Mean, $28 for an exam is unheard of! And 25% off a spay or dental? That would pay for it in itself!
Thanks for that!!
Showed the 4 pet deal to my Mom and sister, they're willing to split the money (Mum's dog and cat, Wesley, and my dog) for it. Awesomesauce.

I'd call the vet you want to use first, to see if they actually accept it, before spending the money. I was looking into it for somebody else, and saw multiple reviews about the vet being listed on the site, then when they go to pay, the vet office not having a clue about it and having to call them and be like "wtf, we don't participate and never have.. "

There are a couple vets in the area that do it, you're right and I will check.

ETA I just looked and you can search the site for 'any listings' and 'participating vets only', which was probably the problem.

Tomorrow, I will be here :D

http://www.festivalnumber6.com/

We invite you to leave the real world behind and enter the fantasy world of Festival No.6. set in the magical village of Portmeirion, in North Wales, this is a festival unlike any other in a place like no other. But the location is not just a stunning backdrop; the village will once again come alive with venues likes the historic Town Hall, The Piazza and The Stone Boat. You can even stay in a castle or in the village. Be seeing you.

I found a place where I can get a 30lb queen size weighted blanket for $225! That's half what I was going to pay for a 29lb full size blanket. I AM ORDERING IT TONIGHT, while the money is in my account, so I will finally have my blanket! It's not going to be TARDIS-y like the other place could have been, but for that price, that's okay!

What place? I am currently piling 100 bajillion blankets on myself to make weight... Which means I am also cranking AC and fans to keep from dying from heatstroke. LOL.

I made Biggs (my rat) an awesome cage using a 29 gallon tank, some hardware cloth, and his old wire cage. :D Well, it looks like crap as I am not handyman materiel, but he now has a very nice, large, two level cage with lots of climbing opportunities! I'm trying to figure out how to add another level to the tank portion as there is a lot of wasted space, but he is so much happier now regardless.

We're probably getting a pair of rats at work in the next month or so! Of course that means 3 months before WE actually get them, due to quarantine, but still, YAY! I want to train them to do ALL THE THINGS! :D

I love it when pay day falls on a sunday and they have to pay me two days early. And I also love direct deposit. And I also love that I DON'T actually need a fan assembly like the dealership told me I did.

I was able to make it out of there with an oil change, two lights replaced, fluids topped off, a new transmission, and alignment for $192.

AND I WAS ABLE TO PAY IT.

Week has been made. I'm glad that I can finally pay all of my own emergency expenses like this, and take over insurance and phone bills as well. Dad's company is going under so he can't get it all for free any longer.

Huck is back to putting weight on his hind leg, even though he's still limping a little bit. The best news is that he just slept all night and didn't chew on my ears at all!

Sawyer is back to all fine; Marley hasn't missed a beat even though I found out yesterday she had eaten a good portion of those brownies as well--she just had the runs yesterday.

I guess it's good news work isn't flooded? I kind of wanted to have a full weekend off.
