The couple of months i been on here, it astounds me, that some people cant afford vets fees. Are they that expensive in the States? Here in U.K. i can take my 3 cats up, have 9 shots, heart, ears eyes and weight check for the price of £120.00p. (dont know what that is in U.S. dollars.)
Here in U.K. we do have the P.D.S.A. who give free treatment for those on income support.
So it got me thinking for those who got pets , why dont some vets in the states, do saving stamps or vouchers, so if anything should happen to pets, least they know they have them to fall back on,(i know some vets can be quite stubborn in instalments.) Anything could happen re life wise, suddenly loose job ect, Lot of people cant afford pet insurance, so what do you think about a voucher or saving stamp scheme at your vets, least your vet would know that you are saving for that "Just in case" syndrome.
What are your thoughts? (of course it would have to be properly vetted, excuse pun, so you dont get conned.)
