vet costs

[fantaysah]

Anyone here have a vet that gives multiple bunny discounts? When i took mine to the vet he didn't charge me a dime for sugar and only charged 54.00 for pepper. That's an exam each and 2 different medications each ! He is the only rabbit vet in 3 counties so i was impressed that the prices were so nice! My shar pei will be moved there for her next visit also because i liked him so much. Soo... are these prices typical? What does your vet charge for exams etc? And how much do u like them?

I wish we had places that gave multiple bun discounts. I've spent at least $4000 in vet bills in the last year.

Is it a vet that does dogs too...? Is it a dog vet that occasionally does rabbits?

They do any animal u can get in the door

Our vet specializes in small animals and dogs... And charges 35$ for an exam and nail clip for our bunny. If you have 2 bunnies it's 50$ for both and 10$ more for each addition bunny exam we have used him for all our pets for over 16 yrs and love him! We don't mind the two hour drive

We only have one rabbit savvy vet in the area. They charge $63 per each rabbit and don't have multiple pet discounts. They are great people and provide a lot of advice, but I do wish they had discounts. Fecals are another $30 each

Wow! That seems pricey... But I guess at least they are good! Fecals are included in our vet exams... And if they aren't needed we get a credit.

That seems expensive? Our vet of choice does exams for $80 each with no multiple pet discounts and fecals are $40. But they are fantastic so I go there.

A spay costs $285. Ugh, that number so rough. I'm used to vet bills being high one hundred, but not almost $300. Especially when there are countless other vets nearby quoting ..$80-$180

...I'm just kind of chuckling to myself cause it cost me $330 for Flynn's spay, but it's more ofa pained chuckle because I wish our prices were that low. All of our other does that have been spayed came that way, but Flynn was a bit of a shock to get a bill that high. Considering I have two coming up for a spay at the same time, that's going to be a huge number to take.

I would never be able to go for a spay with a cost of $80, it seems like there would have to be a lot of corner cutting to get it that low...

Mine does spay for 115 and nueter is 85
