Hopefully the last WTF? of the day! But damn, WTF?

AND that was for Porter this afternoon, my chihuahau, we also brought the cat in earlier today! Why in the world is it so expensive for a blood test, which I know for sure they do in house.

But just for the tiny dog...

Exam/Consultation on additional pet - $95.50
Rabies Vaccine for 3 years - $56.03
EDD Senior Blood Panel K9 - $341.03

You pay their rate or pray your pet doesn't get ill due to what will be labeled negligence on your part. My daughter's cats get their teeth brushed and gums cleaned for $150 ea.

I think all medical - people and/or pets - is overpriced. But if you can't do it yourself and require a professional you're at their mercy.
