You are not foolish - I know that youre just curious. Cost is such a concern with these places, but they do their best. It's impossible to know because you haven't gotten it diagnosed yet. They will give you an estimate after examining your cat and then you can choose what you would like to do.
They can not diagnose this way. You are foolish and need to take the animal inside to see a vet
