Ukukhokha Okuncane Ngokunakekelwa Kwezilwane Zakho Akukwenzi Umuntu Ombi

-Delile

• Iqiniso ngukuthi: Udokotela wakho wezilwane kungenzeka angazazi izindleko zenqubo
• Ukwabelana ngempilo yakho nezilwane ezifuywayo, ngamanye amazwi, kungabiza
• Ukulondolozela okungenakugwemeka

Isidingo sokukhetha ngokunengqondo phakathi kwezindleko nokunakekelwa, kuyilapho isilwane sakho sisetafuleni lokuhlola, singabonakala singenabuntu.

Ukwesaba ukutholakala kokunakekelwa kwezilwane kungokoqobo, ikakhulukazi kubantu abahola imali engaguquki, njengoPatti Schiendelman. "Okwamanje anginalo ikati ngoba manje ngikhubazekile futhi ngimpofu, futhi anginayo imali yokuyinakekela kahle," esho, engeza ngokuqiniseka ukuthi ufisa ukuthi angaphinde abe nomlingani we-feline.

USchiendelman unelungelo lokukhathazeka ngalokho akuchaza ngokuthi "yizinto ezingalindelekile zezilwane." Lezizikweletu eziphakeme zingaba ngumphumela wokuguga nokuphela kwempilo, ukulimala kwezilwane ezifuywayo ezisencane ezinomsindo, noma izingozi eziyinqaba.

Akuyona into engenakwenzeka ukuthi abanakekeli bezilwane bazobhekana okungenani nomthethosivivinywa ophuthumayo owodwa we-vet ophuthumayo. Zimbalwa izinto ezisishiya sizizwa singenakuzisiza njengokuma phezu kwetafula lokuhlolwa nesilwane esigulayo noma esilimele, silalele uhlu lwezilwane oluthola ochungechungeni lokungenelela okusindisa impilo.

Faka ingcindezi engokwengqondo yokubala inani lemali elisele ebhange futhi inqubo ingazizwa ingenabuntu: ukucabanga ukuthi impilo yesilwane sethu kufanele isuselwe kulokho esingakwazi ukukukhokhela, kunalokho esifuna ukukwenza. Kepha labo abangashesha ukugxeka abantu ngokungazami konke ungahle uthande ukucabanga kabusha.

Ngokusho kwe-American Veterinary Medical Association, abanakekeli bezilwane bachitha imali engaphansi kwama- $ 100 ekunakekelweni kwezilwane kwamakati minyaka yonke kusukela ngo-2011 (unyaka wakamuva onamanani atholakala) futhi cishe kabili kunalokho ezinjeni. Kodwa-ke, abacwaningi kwenye indawo basikisela ukuthi lezi zinombolo ziphansi impela.

Abafundi bezilwane eNyuvesi yasePennsylvania, ngokwesibonelo, balinganisela ukuthi izindleko ezijwayelekile zokuphila ngokuba nenja zingaba ngama- $ 23,000 - kufaka phakathi ukudla, ukunakekelwa kwezilwane, izimpahla, amalayisense, kanye nezigameko. Kodwa lokho akubandakanyi yonke into, njengokuqeqeshwa.

Ngokuya ngemininingwane yomshwalense wezilwane iPet Plan, ngaphezu kwezindleko ezijwayelekile, isilwane esisodwa kwezintathu sidinga ukunakekelwa kwezilwane okuphuthumayo minyaka yonke ngezinqubo ezingakhuphuka ngokushesha ziye ezinkulungwaneni.

Udokotela wezilwane uJessica Vogelsang, ogxile ekunakekeleni abagulela ukufa nasekunakekeleni, uthi kubalulekile ukuqaphela ukuthi ukunakekelwa kwe-palliative "akunikezeli," kumane nje kuthatha ukwelashwa ngendlela ehlukile.

Ngisho njengoba abanikazi bezilwane benokunye ongakhetha kukho okutholakalayo, okunye kwalokhu okukhethwa kukho kuyabiza, futhi ingcindezi ebonakalayo yomphakathi yokuthi "wenze konke" ingabenza abantu babe necala ekusebenziseni imali.

Iqiniso ngukuthi: Udokotela wakho wezilwane kungenzeka angazazi izindleko zenqubo

UDkt Jane Shaw, i-DVM, i-PhD, isazi esaziwayo sodokotela bezilwane, amaklayenti, kanye nokuxhumana kweziguli, kusitshela ukuthi odokotela bezilwane bavame ukwethula ababheki bezilwane ngezindlela zokwelashwa kepha hhayi izindleko. Lokhu kungajwayeleka ikakhulukazi emitholampilo yezimo eziphuthumayo, futhi akusikho ukuthi kunesifiso sokukhohlisa ababheki ekungeneleleni okubizayo.

Ikakhulukazi ezibhedlela zezinkampani, odokotela bezilwane bangagcinwa ngamabomu ezindlekweni zokunakekelwa: Abakwazi njalo ukutshela amaklayenti ukuthi yimalini inketho yokwelashwa A ebiza ngokungafani nenketho yokwelashwa B. Kunalokho, umuntu owamukela noma umsizi uzohlala nawe ukudlula izindleko.

Abanakekeli nabo bangazizwa sengathi abanandlela yokuzikhethela ngaphandle kokukhokhela ukungenelela okubizayo uma becabanga ukuthi okunye okungenzeka kungukubulawa kwesiguli noma ukuyeka isilwane. Leyo mizwa yecala, noma kunjalo, yenza kube nzima ukuxhumana nezilwane nezisebenzi zasemtholampilo ngezindlela zokunakekelwa - okulimaza wonke umuntu ekugcineni.

Ukuba phambili mayelana nokwesaba izindleko kungasiza ababheki ukuthi bafunde kabanzi ngezindlela ezahlukahlukene okufanele bazilandele. Lokhu kungafaka izindlela ezingezinkulu zokulawula noma ukwelapha isifo, ukuqaphela ukuthi imiphi imithi enqunyiwe, kanye nokuvakashelwa kwesikhathi ngokucophelela ukunciphisa izindleko ezihambisana nokuvakashelwa kwamahhovisi.

Kwesinye isikhathi izinqumo ezisuselwa ezindlekweni empeleni zihambisana nezintshisekelo zesilwane. Kepha uma ukuhlinzwa okunolaka nokuvakashelwa kwezilwane okuphindaphindwayo kungangezi ubude obuningi noma ikhwalithi empilweni yesilwane, ingabe kufanele? Kwezinye zalezi zimo, ukushintshela esibhedlela noma ukunakekelwa okunciphisayo, noma ukukhetha ukuphishekela ukubulawa kwesiguli ngokushesha, kungaba yindlela efanele yokuziphatha.

Udokotela wezilwane uJessica Vogelsang, ogxile ekunakekeleni abagulayo nasekunakekeleni, uthi kubalulekile ukuqaphela ukuthi ukunakekelwa kwe-palliative "akunikezeli," kumane nje kuthatha ukwelashwa ngendlela ehlukile.

Wazi kahle ukuthi izindleko zingaba kanjani yingxenye ekuthathweni kwezinqumo. “Ngicabanga ukuthi [odokotela bezilwane] kufanele banikeze [amaklayenti] imvume yokwethembeka. Futhi bazokwenza. Imvamisa bazizwa behlulelwe, futhi lokho kuyishwa. Bambalwa kakhulu abantu abangacebile ngokuzimela abanakho lokhu kukhathazeka nokwesaba okufanayo. " Futhi ukwehluleka ukuxhumana, uthi, kungaholela ekubambaneni phakathi kukadokotela wezilwane neklayenti.

"Kubonakala sengathi ayimbozi lutho," kukhononda uSimmons, echaza ukuthi kungani akhethe [umshwalense wesilwane] ngemuva kokubona abangani bethumela izimangalo zokuthi umshwalense wabo wenqabile ukukhokha.

Ukwabelana ngempilo yakho nezilwane ezifuywayo, ngamanye amazwi, kungabiza

Ukungena esimeni esiyingozi sezezimali ngokuthatha isikweletu esikhulu ngaphandle kohlelo olungokoqobo lokuxazulula leso sikweletu kuzoba yingcindezi kubanakekeli bezilwane ezifuywayo nasezilwaneni ngokufanayo.

KuJulie Simmons, omunye umnakekeli wezilwane obhekane nezinqumo eziningi eziyinselele zezokwelapha, uthi inkinga yokunakekelwa iba nzima nakakhulu lapho ethatha izinqumo zezimali egameni lomunye umuntu - njengoba kwenzeka lapho ikati likamamezala wakhe ligula. USimmons unqabile ukulandela ukwelashwa okungu- $ 4,000 ngesizathu sokuthi kubiza kakhulu futhi isikhathi sokuphila sekati asilinganisanga izindleko.

“[Umamezala wami] wayelokhu ethi, uyazi,‘ singase sikwazi ukukulapha, asikulungise, ’” kukhumbula uSimmons, ezwakalisa imizwa embeka esimweni esinzima. Ngokuphambene nalokho, lapho inja yakhe eneminyaka emine idinga ukuhlinzwa kwe-ACL, ngenani elifanayo elilinganisiwe, wayivuma, ezwa ukuthi uneminyaka eminingi esebenzayo ngaphambi kwakhe futhi angakwazi ukuyikhokhela.

Kungabonakala njengokukhaphela ukulinganisela ukufinyeleleka eceleni kwezokwelapha. Kodwa izindleko ziyiqiniso, futhi ukungakwazi ukukhokhela ukunakekelwa akusho ukuthi abantu abazithandi izilwane zabo ezifuywayo. Ukwesatshwa kokulinganiswa kwezindleko ngokucatshangelwa okunjengobuhlungu, imiphumela elindelekile yokwelashwa, kanye nekhwalithi yempilo yesilwane sakho kungakusiza wenze isinqumo esiholela ekubeni necala nokucindezeleka okuncane esikhathini esizayo. Futhi uma kwenzeka kubiza okungabizi kakhulu, lokho akukwenzi umuntu omubi.

Umbhali uKatherine Locke wakuthola lokhu ngenkathi ethatha isinqumo sokuqinisa ikati lakhe uLouie: Wayenolaka futhi engakubekezeleli ukwelashwa kahle, ngakho ukunakekelwa okubizayo kwakungaba okuhlukumezayo - hhayi nje okubizayo - kubo bonke abathintekayo.

Ukulondolozela okungenakugwemeka

Ukuqamba nje i-akhawunti yokonga izindleko zezilwane kuyindlela eyodwa - ukubeka eceleni imali njalo ngenyanga kungaqinisekisa ukuthi izotholakala lapho idingeka, futhi ingangezwa kwisabelomali sanyanga zonke kanye nezinye izinhloso zokonga. Abanye abanakekeli bezilwane futhi bakhetha ukuthenga umshwalense wesilwane, okukholakala ukuthi ukhokhela ukunakekelwa endaweni yesevisi noma ubuyisela ababheki bezilwane ngemuva kweqiniso lokunakekelwa abakuthengile.

Kepha yazi okuthengayo. “Kubonakala sengathi ayimbozi lutho,” kukhononda uSimmons, echaza ukuthi kungani akhethe ukuyiphikisa ngemuva kokubona abangani bethumela izimangalo zokuthi umshwalense wabo wenqabile ukukhokha.

Ngenkathi ukhuluma ngokungagwegwesi ngokuthi uzimisele ukusebenzisa malini nokuthi ngasiphi isimo akuyona ingxoxo entofontofo, kuyinto edingekayo.

Izinhlelo eziningi ziyabiza futhi zinokudonswa okuphezulu, okungadala ukwethuka kwentengo ngesikhathi semicimbi emikhulu yezokwelapha. Amanye amaketanga ezibhedlela, njengeBanfield, anikela "ngezinhlelo zokuphila kahle," esebenza kakhulu njenge-HMO lapho ababheki bezilwane abangathenga khona kuhlelo oluhlanganisa ukunakekelwa okuvamile futhi lukhokhele izindleko zemicimbi ebalulekile yezokwelapha.

Labo abanentshisekelo yomshuwalense wezilwane kufanele babukeze izinhlelo ngokucophelela futhi bangafisa ukuxhumana nodokotela babo bezilwane ukubona ukuthi banezincomo yini.

ICareCredit - inkampani enikezela ngemalimboleko yezokwelapha kokubili ukunakekelwa kwezilwane nokunakekelwa kwabantu - ivumela ababheki bezilwane ukuthi bathathe imali mboleko yesikhashana yesikhashana ukumboza izindleko zezilwane ezimeni eziphuthumayo. Kepha lapho igama liphela, izintshisekelo zenzalo.

Lokhu kungaba yindlela enhle kulabo abangakhokha ngokushesha isikweletu sezilwane, kepha labo abasebenza kumabhajethi alinganiselwe bangangena enkingeni. Ngokufanayo, inani elilinganiselwe lamahhovisi wezilwane lingahlinzeka ngezinhlelo zezitolimende kunokuba zidinge inkokhelo ephelele ngesikhathi sokusebenza, kepha lokhu akuvamile ukuba kube inketho.

Imalimboleko iyanezela Ngaphambi kokuthatha isibopho esifana neCareCredit, kufanele ucabangele ukuthi ungayikhokha yini imali mboleko ngaphakathi kwethemu. I- $ 1,200 ngaphezulu kwezinyanga eziyi-12 ingahle yenzeke kumuntu oyedwa, ngokwesibonelo, kanti ama- $ 6,000 kungenzeka angabambeki ngokuphelele.

Izinhlangano ezinjengeRed Rover zinikela ngosizo olulinganiselwe ngezikweletu zezilwane zabafakizicelo abafanelekayo, kuyilapho ukutakulwa okuqondene nohlobo oluthile nakho kungalondoloza imali yezilwane. Lezi zinyathelo zezimo eziphuthumayo azisona isiqinisekiso, noma kunjalo, futhi ukuphatha izinhlelo zokusebenza kanye nezingcingo zosizo kungacindezela phakathi kwesimo esiphuthumayo.

Ukuthembela ekubuyiselweni kwemali yabantu abaningi kungenzeka kungabi yisixazululo sangempela. Sizwa izindaba ezivela kumasayithi okubuyisa imali njengeGoFundMe ne-YouCaring zisiza ngezindleko eziphuthumayo, kepha abaxhasi bezimali abaphumelelayo bavame ukuba nezindaba ezikhangayo, izithombe ezinhle kakhulu, kanye nokuxhaswa kwenethiwekhi enosaziwayo oyedwa noma abaningi abangasabalalisa igama.

Isibonelo, lesi sisulu sesihluku sezilwane esinyantisayo sakhuphula u- $ 13,000 sibonga indaba ebuhlungu kakhulu nokuthi umkhankaso wahlelwa ngumthwebuli zithombe wekati owayenabalandeli abakhelwe ngaphakathi abazimisele ukungena ngaphakathi. Lezi yizinto ezingafiki kalula kumnikazi wesilwane esimaphakathi.

Esikhundleni salokho, labo abakhathazekile ngezezimali kufanele bathole indlela ejabulisayo phakathi kokweqisa kokukhokha noma yini ebizayo noma bangenzi lutho. Ukuze benze lokhu, badinga ukucabanga ngalezi zinqumo kusenesikhathi. Ngenkathi ukhuluma ngokungagwegwesi ngokuthi uzimisele ukusebenzisa malini nokuthi ngasiphi isimo akuyona ingxoxo entofontofo, kuyinto edingekayo.

Umnakekeli wekati uShayla Maas, owayengumhlengikazi onokuhlangenwe nakho okubizayo kwezilwane, ulinganisa ukukhathazeka ngezindleko zokunakekelwa kanye nezinhlelo zakhe ezinkulu ezimpilweni zezilwane zakhe ukuze angamangali.

KumaMaas, ukubheka izindleko nenzuzo yokunakekelwa kubandakanya izindleko zezimali kanye nezomzwelo nezomzimba nezinzuzo. "Angifuni ukumfaka kosizi olwengeziwe ukuze ngisizakale," esho ngekati lakhe elithandekayo lomdala uDiana. Uzimisele ngekhwalithi yezimpawu zokuphila zikaDiana - njengokuthanda ushizi - ukumsiza enze izinqumo ezinzima ngokuzayo.
