Yesterday at roughly 9:30am Nate and I began ourload up. I was time to head to the vet for the first time with thegirls. I placed some towels in a tote with the dual hinged lid andplucked Jetta out ouf her cage and placed her within. She looked at mewith much irritation as if to say, "Mom, there are NOT any treats inhere."
I then proceeded to Passat's cage and scooted her into her own littlecarrier. She is such a good baby and this deed wasn't any different.Off to the clinic we went.
Jetta rode on Nate's lap as I wanted to make sure the lid stayed openwithout her leaping out and around the car. Passat sat in her carriersnuggly behind my seat.
We arrived at the clinic and me, being nervous, started to itch at afew hives that were appearing. The vet I take my dog to was in our hometown and I have known him forever. My own grandmother took HER animalsthere when my mother was young! So a new vet was a bit nerve wreckingto me.
I filled out the paper work and the assitant commented cheerfully on mychoice of names. I became a little shocked at the price of an officevisit, $34.00 was a lot different from the $12.00 my home vetcharges.:shock:
We then went into the examination room and waited. He had birds of preyphotos on the walls, so Nate and I oogled at the gorgeous raptors for abit until the door creaked open.
He seemed cheerful and genuine right from the start and I was quickly comfortable with him handling the buns.
He looked at Passat first and she only weighed 2 whole pounds! Such alittle baby she is.
This girl is so mellow and calm that I worryabout her, so it was GREAT news to hear that she was in perfect health!I was so happy! I even was correct in sexing her as a female when Ipicked her out! :yes:
I was worried when it was Jetta's turn due to the fact that she is alittle less willing to be handled. I'm not even really sure she likesbeing petted much. She'd much rather just be talked to all day long.She weighed just a tad over 6 pounds. So she is certainly not a"little" girl anymore. She did surprisingly well. I was very proud ofmy girl. She really only protested when he checked her teeth and justas well as Passat, Jetta is in excellent condition! :jumpforjoy:
So that was our trip to the vet. The spaying will cost $150.00 eachthere, which I'm not really happy about. he told me that was the sameprice that they charge for a small dog. Our dogs were spayed here for$85.00! So I'm going to contact the House Rabbit Society inIndianapolis to see if they spay for the public and check on thosedetails.
Thanks for reading!
