I just totted up all my credit/debit card charges at the vets for the past year (since Zeus first got his eye problem in December 2003).
I have spent close on £600 pounds this year and I only have two rabbits!! :shock: :?
Admittedly one of the guinea pigs getting ill was £50 of it and they were spayed/neutered respectively, which was £150 of it (especially since Zeus worried the wound and gave himself a little abscess).
Then there was Zeus' two bouts of stasis, then his eye problem flared up again, then because of that he got stressed = mites.
Athena has been relatively indestructible through all of this and only cost me her spay and a bit of antibiotic after the spay as a preventative.
So my question is how much have you spent??
Obviously those of you that run rescues are probably laughing at my rather paltry bill but I am running at £275/rabbit. Is this above average?
If you guys have the time to work out your average vets bill/rabbit it would be interesting to compare. Your vets may be able to supply your account details (such as number of rabbits seen and total spent).
