My mom was doing her laundry today when she is about to dry it out on the open area. So that Sunlight can dry her washed clothes. What happen is that she was bitten was a Black Cat. She stepped on the feed of the cat where the cat react by bitting my mom. Black Cat is not our cat. I panic and which we ended up in paying 2,100.00 for just the Anti-Rabies shot. Now Php 2,100.00 gone in thin air in just one bit.

Dear friend, I feel that is high one for saving a life. May be a cost of one's life is that. If a person who do not have that much to pay, the life is gone. Here in India in some of government hospital it is said to be free, but mostly the patient or others will pay for it.

2100 would be nothing if you loose ones life. Just do not try to think on what you loose and reflect on what you gained.

Oh, that's scary to think the cat might have rabies. I don't know how much 2100 is in American dollars, but it's a shame that you had to pay out. It's better to be safe than sorry, though. I hope your mom is all right.

Yeah those medicines are really costly. One of my relatives were bitten by a dog and he had to take one. They were also complaining about the price. I dont know why are they so costly as they are pretty common medicines. They are being used bu people all the time, I think the government should think of lowering it's price. What if a poor person get bitten. He will just die.

I think our government has free rabies vaccines but that price is nothing compared to the trouble you will have to endure if that cat has rabies and you didn't do anything about it.
