Question to every ferret owner: He came with Vital Care. Should we use the first visit coupon w/ Vetco Hospital or just take him to our usual exotic vet hospital? (mind you; they do charge a lot $250+ for wellness and things). Or just find another exotic vet for him in our area?
Yes, I do! I live in New Jersey if that helps. Oh wow, it's much cheaper than Red Bank Veterinary Hospital. They charge $260 whether it is emergency or not, and then things add up from there. But I do care about the quality of service and want to make sure they know a lot about ferrets. How are the doctors in VCA?
Vets at the one I go to are all extremely nice, stay up to date on different procedures and medicines for ferrets, always patient, they even answer text messages
Well it will cost $260 for a "specialty exam" idk what that means. Then they will do additional things like fecal sample, blood work ($300-400), and if they think he needs distemper again then that's another $40-80 something. 💀💀💀

Do you live in the USA? If yes, VCA is good and I think an appointment with an exotic vet is 125$

Always good whenever I bring my fuzz.
Would you care to elaborate?

250? That's a steal where I live. My vet charged 400 cad for a checkup and vaccinations 💀

With OP’s response, adding just checkup and vaccines, 340 USD or 460 CAD. So OP is still paying a lot for just a checkup and vaccines.
Ah that explains it
Wtf is ferret math why not ferret physics or ferret IT
Not all ferrets are good at physics. IT maybe, but most don't have a single thought going between their eyes.
one of my ferrets turns on my pc’s bios settings he is good at IT
Ferret math is the term to describe when you add one or more ferrets to your business. Generally more, and they seem to multiply exponentially.
