How often do you visit the vet?

Usually not even once a year, for shots. I do go to the vet without Finn to get his flea spray and heartgard, but, other than that, only if he were to get hurt or sick.

I voted for 4, though its usually way more.
Aside from taking the dogs there to get their shots, we have to take Frisk & Ethan there to get their nails clipped every so often.
The cats only go once a year, though. Just for shots.
None of the other animals go unless its an emergency. The only non-canine, non-feline that has been to the vet this year was Otto(one of the rats) to get an abcess removed.

I voted once a year, probably less than that. I don't really take the cats unless they were to get sick or something like that, which hasn't actually happened yet. Roscoe has been there twice since we got him (about 1 year) - the first time just to check him out as soon as we got him, and the second time because he had a cut/mark on him that looked like it was infected. I have been really lucky with my pets, as they never get sick (aside from the occasional hair ball).

Around 3 times a year, sometimes more. We usually take them to get dipped and bathed, and their nails clipped around once a year. Then again for any shots they might need. If they get sick or hurt we take them in, which happens at least once a year.
