2.Do not underestimate the vet bills
One trip to the vet for routine vaccinations can cost over $100, while surgeries and medical emergencies can easily run into the thousands, depending on the case. For example, your pet isn't eating. Sure, it may be nothing, but a trip to the vet is in order. Not only will you have to pay for the examination, you may incur additional costs for x-rays, blood tests, ultrasounds, and more extensive examinations. Wouldn't you rather be safe than sorry?
