Yes I know, vet fees anymore are more like highway robbery! That's why for their shots and stuff I bring mine to the clinic that PetCo has once a month where a vet and some nurses come once a month and do shots. The shots are at reduced prices and there is NO office or visit fee! All you pay for are shots! The last time I was in I got Charlie his 3-year rabies and Jamie her 1-year rabies and with tags, and it only cost me $37 as opposed to well over $70 if I would have gone to an actual clinic and scheduled an appointment!
