[QUOTE="Son of Butch, post: 1793793, member: 14585"] You're right and deserve an apology, because I know you're not a pet producer. Being the girl's show steer I jumped to the conclusion it was being treated differently. More importantly forgot each case can be different. We caught ours when steer was struggling to pee, but still passing urine. Vet explained the options. He could do the surgery, but recommended slaughter due to the added cost on a steer already close to slaughter weight and might be close to the possibility of getting the carcass condemned if we waited too long. (He was a former USDA meat inspector) Adding the steer could also shut down ability to pass any urine and be dead in a week. I didn't realize yours was already past the stage where we caught our one and only case. [/QUOTE]
