I’ll bet the vet’s bill will be barely digestible (judging by the experiences of my neighbours). They’re sure the local vet has numerical dyslexia e.g. where a bill of £18 is presented as £81.

The Ultimate Computer stood at the end of the Ultimate Computer Company’s production line.
The salesman stepped forward to give his prepared demo. ‘This,’ he said, ‘is the Ultimate Computer. It will give an intelligent answer to any question you may care to ask it.’
A smart-aleck who ran a humour mailing list stepped forward and asked, ‘Where is my father?’
There was the soft hum of powerful electronic gear. Panel lights lit and blinked, and within a couple of seconds the laser printer printed out a piece of paper: ‘Fishing off Florida.’
The smart-aleck laughed, ‘Actually, my father is dead! It was a trick question.’
The salesman, quickly thinking on his feet, said he was sorry the answer was unsatisfactory, but as the Ultimate Computer was precise, perhaps a rewording of the question might work better.
The smart-aleck said to the Ultimate Computer, ‘Where is my mother’s husband?’ Again, the hum of the powerful electronic brain filled the room.
After a moment, the laser printer whirred to life. The paper said, ‘Dead. But your father is still fishing off Florida.’

I think your pic is the most indicative of the eclipse, Kev. Is that a dark chocolate covered Hobnob?
I do hope he says ‘Yes’ ooh that taste!

“Oh?”
“While you were talking, someone changed the wall behind you and Riker.”
