Vet costs vary wildly across different regions.

I just took my cat in for an emergency (little idiot ate plastic and we had to see if she had a block in her when she was continuing to vomit blood) and got her examined, a shot of anti-nausea medication, imaging of her gi tract, and some bland food to take home (which had to be special as she's allergic to chicken protein) for $215. I thought that was pretty damn reasonable honestly.



Private equity is taking over vet clinics. In areas where they have the market locked, they raise prices


I just did the same with a dog maybe a week ago. It was a little over $600. I'm in the exurbs of Chicago.


I'm in mid-MI, so I'm not even that far away. Crazy how prices vary.
