all the time while it was doing it. All right. Have I got your attention now?
A
Oh, yes. Animals have a way of talking.
B
Alfie did. I tell you if I could have gotten a hold of that cat that day.
A
I, I don't know that I'd, uh, that I'd trade my dog in for the world. Uh, it was about two years ago she got sick on me and I took her to the, uh, to the vet's because she wasn't eating and, and, uh, she wasn't able to jump. She, you know, lost all her activity and, uh, she stayed there for one day and the doctor called me up and said, uh, she had a low white cell count and that, uh, she wasn't, she was dying and, uh, suggested that I take her to a working hos-, dog hospital, animal hospital. So I took his suggestion and I, uh, took the, the dog to a hospital. The dog hospital there and they said they'd keep her there for three days. Well, she ended staying there five days at a hundred and something dollars a day because she was in intensive care. It cost me over five hundred dollars.
B
Ouch.

Plus, the, the, uh, the vet sent me a bill for what he did and, uh, then she recouped. She was okay for a couple of years. And then she got sick on me again and I brought her to a different vet this time and I told the vet what medication I had given her and everything. And, uh, he gave me the medication, the same medication that I gave her the last time and she was okay and she's been okay every since. It's been about two years now.
