My mom said her cat had trouble breathing and asked if she can take it to the ER and use my credit card, I said fine.
She said they need to keep it there and figure out why it’s having trouble breathing for an “initial cost” of $5,500 (I spent $3500 on her vet bills in March that she did without telling me). I told her to have the vet call me to discuss to see if it’s worth it and she started crying asking for $10,000 total for the cats.
I sent her $5000 on May 1st for life expenses bought her a condo last year cash, pay her property taxes $5000 a year and pay her HOA at $600 a month.
She hasn’t had the vet call me and I told her no. I told her to use the $5000 I sent her this week and negotiate a payment plan with the vets for the remainder.
Am I being an asshole, I could easily afford it.
