I called the vet this morning. OMFG - they want $435+ to put him down and cremate him!
A group cremation and not taking his ashes home is $99
Euthanisia is over $200 - they must sedate them to permanently sedate them. Sorry, I ain't paying for that shit. Give him the one needle.
Cremation to take him home is $235. We want that because we can't bury him.
But, I just can't see sedating him FIRST. The chemicals to euthanize him IS a sedative! The girl said that they have to do this if they are lucid or stressed. Bullshit. I've had horses that were freaking out put down with one needle. I see no reason for this illogical reasoning to keep him calm. He's going to think this is just another vet trip with a needle involved. He won't know what happens.
