Feel the same way about vets since insurance for animals is friggin ridiculous. I give my cat mmj & he loves it. Unfortunately my younger cat passed in Feb but gave him copious amounts of cannabis when ill & was comfortable/able to eat! Don't wanna get into the blood sucking docs recommendations for it would take way too long & don't wanna delve into it. For me it helps with daily pain (arthritis etc etc). Not sure what to recommend (sativa v indica or hybrid) but know heavy handed cbd mmj works for me. On a skunk strain now & feel no pain. Raising another crop of super skunk (can see my grow log for progress). Hope yo & ur pet feel better. Btw, an od is pretty much impossible. Peace
