#my other dog princess just ran out of my room with an ant trap

[bbeelzemon]

my parents be like: oh, a medical emergency for our dog? on saturday morning? well, better wait until monday so we can take her to our usual vet

me, internally: sir and maam, this 9lb dog has not eaten in over 48 hours without throwing it up or refusing it entirely, and was refusing water the ENTIRE day yesterday and most of today

my parents: we’ll just wait for our usual vet, he already has all her information on file

me:

#do you not understand that she could DIE #what if SOMETHING IS WRONG #'oh its probably a reaction to her new medicine' YEAH AND?? #DOES IT NOT SAY IF THESE SYMPTOMS HAPPEN CALL YOUR VET?? #i wish i could drive IF ONLY SO i could drive my dog to the fucking emergency vet #my mom took her outside so sasha could go to the bathroom #she started eating grass so we brought her back in #i told my dad 'shes just eating grass so i think her stomach still hurts' #and he looked at me like id insulted him and said 'yeah i KNOW her stomach hurts' #like how dare i allegedly imply that hes soooo stupid that he wouldnt have known that on his own #i was only TELLING YOU because you were inside and we just came back in to tell you she didnt go and why #hang on #well THAT didnt just help my mood any #my other dog princess just ran out of my room with an ant trap #so i ran after her #and grabbed it #and my dad was like 'did she move the thing holding it down? or was it one of the ones from your windowsill?' #and i was going to say 'i dont know she just ran out of my room with it' #but i guess i fucking took to long to say anything because my dad just yelled 'dont look at me like im crazy' #what??! #gaaahh jesus CHRIST #edit from when i drafted this earlier: i talked to my mom about the vet thing without my dad around #she said he read a bad review on the emergency vet and also the emergency vet will cost more #so like okay fine i can understand that but why didnt you guys tell me that EARLIER #when i was NAGGING YOU to TAKE HER to the EMERGENCY VET #all they told me was just 'oh we'll just wait until monday and take her to our vet' #not a single word more #im not a psychic i cant know WHY you dont want to take her to one vet over the other unless you use your big kid words #to me it just sounded like they werent taking sasha's health seriously #and im worried this could be it for her! our dogs are old! not eating in 48 hours after throwing up all day isnt a good sign on top of that!
