I know medical care is expensive .. I now have 2 “free” cats … and yes I have spent a few thousand on them over the last year and a half … but they are my babies and constant companions … so I know initially the costs can be expensive — but my last “free” cat was with me for 15 years – and there is no reason to believe that these two won’t be either — so it looks like Dr. Eastin is stuck with me for a while!
