I think it is combination of thgins. One the most obvious would be financial concerns. Not everyone can afford an vet office visit so they come here hoping to find out it is not serious problem or there is a home remedy. Granted some folks are just cheap, but for some folks it is a question of putting food on the table or paying rent verses taking the pet to the doctor. I remember eating mac+cheese and top ramen for over month and heating the house with fire wood scavenged from a friend's property to pay the vet bill for the family dog. But some of these people might already be at this stage and just cannot find the money.Another thing I have seen in humans and their own health problems is denial. One of jokes we use have in the ER was that the first symptom of a heart attack is denial. They attribute the chest pain to something else like indigestion. I think some owners are the same with their pets. They are still in denial when they come here but have developed a worry that it might be more, but need convincing.Another but probably less common reason is how dependent our society has become to the inter-net. Some folks are so web oriented, they have to look into it on the net before they pickup a phone or leave the house. Was this answer helpful?
