Animals are lovely creatures, specifically designed and placed on earth by the same God responsible for the universe. All pet owners want the best for their animals. No one wants to see them suffer or be in pain. So, whenever they do happen to experience any kind of discomfort, it's heartbreaking to see. That's double true when what ailing them is a mystery.
