Juniper (tabby) was at the vet yesterday. I couldn't believe what I paid. She had exam, bloodwork, urinalysis and they seem to push flea control though my cats are strictly indoors and I never see a flea on them. So I agreed to one dose.
I had a diabetic kitty who was treated for over 11 years for her diabeties. I know she had bloodwork. I can't remember paying anywhere near this much.
Juniper had no vaccines this visit. And Talia (calico) will be due for a follow up on her inflammatory bowel disease in April. I'm sure they will at least need to do a chemistry panel to check her kidney function due to her being on prednisone. I agree to that. But not a urinalysis or anything. That's over 200 dollars with the needle draw and it's invasive. Unless I see any adverse urinary problems, I'll say no way.
