You know after re-reading the topic question again I realize my last post could just be completly useless.

The question "Would you spend more then the value of the animal in vet bills?"

It kinda depends on what the first poster meant by "value". If he jsut means cost(which is the way i took it) then my last post works. Cost is balck and white, but value can be a grey area. Value can be money, but it can also be emotional attachment, among other things. So I was just wondering what the first poster means when he uses the word value. Is it just money(like cost of pet and/or how much it can make the breeder) or do you mean how much you emotionally value your pet as well? Or other factors you might wanna include?

Also if money value is the only factor(nothing else) what would you people do? If your pet cost $200 and it would take the vet $1000 to cure it if it was sick would you pay it? I know it will be hard to not add other factors but really try not too. The only other factor that should be considered in this is, for a breeders view, it's not just the cost but how much money that snake can make you. But that factor is still just a part of money value.

Me I would pay it. What would you do?
