The CAT PRACTICE has offered care for elderly or terminally ill felines for years. But, this week, they announced a home-based hospice program. It costs $75 dollars per week, which includes the cost of office visits and gives patients access to veterinarians at all times. Medications can cost a great deal more, although the clinic has partnered with a pharmaceutical firm to provide discounts. The clinic is also partnering with a psychologist, to help owners come to terms with loss.
Hospice may not be the proper choice in all situations and sometimes euthanasia is a better option for extremely ill pets. But advancement in medications and treatments can give owners more choices while still doing what's best for the animal. (Detroit News)
