OKAY SO
Saw the specialist
Saw the xray
It's the sockets that are falling apart
He only does one at a time, risk of paralysis too strong otherwise
$600-700 per side
Finally remembered to get his name fixed at the vet's (they had it spelled as Ruffus)
About two months recovery time between the two surgeries
Drop him off the night before, and he spends a few days there, make sure there's no complications
Bloodwork only necessary for the first time
Course, this is at a different location, cuz local branch doesn't have the equipment for the surgery, but it's still gonna get him fixed. Just gotta watch him and see if one side is particularly worse than the other

And now to try for sleep before I work

But he's fixable, and not quite as expensive as anticipated

Yeah. But as long as you think he's worth it. What does it matter?

I have a $400 bill I have to pay mom back, and half of the two operations too
And since I live at home, she'll hold it over my head
