My Bailey died late last night. He was only 4 years old. I would like to know the cause but my vets are saying that for a post mortem they have to refer out to animal trust or Royal veterinary hospital and will charge me around£200/£300 ( no exact price - they seemed to not really know the process themselves!). I phoned up these places directly and they said they don't take patients directly - only through the vets.
I have two questions:
1) is 4 years old a reasonable age for a mini lop to reach? (when I look online they say 7-11years)
2) how can I get a post mortem done? I live in North Essex. Will any vets do it themselves? I've rang round 5 now. I've heard people say about confirmed cases of that virus going round but how do they know if they haven't had a post mortem? There must be facilities somewhere?!
3) How long until it's too late to get a post mortem ?
