Agreed fully, but, again, was nothing we could do. The 2nd vet looked at the bill and confirmed that they raped us, but also confirmed that's 100% to be expected from an emergency vet. I mean, they have to stay open 24 hours and have a lot of downtime they need to fund...so makes sense.
Second vet also confirms that we absolutely did the right thing by taking him to the emergency vet as this is the kind of thing that is easily treated if caught right away, but will kill within 72 hours...so not really something to fuck with.
It's really just more evidence that the cat really is an asshole. He plugged his urethra on a Sunday.
