I don't believe putting rats through unnecessary surgeries or treatments which i know wont work, but i do try and do whats best for them.
before finding my current excellent vet, i went through 6 in a 8 month period...and its hard to find the balance between those who will try to squeeze money out of you, and those who just don't give a toss and would rather put a rat to sleep than try medications for a simple respiratory problem.
same with owners, there are those will try everything to cling on to their animals, even though its prolonging the inevitable, and then there are those who don't care....
its all about balance and moderation and using common sense, hence why the questions.

Hi Laura, I do understand your reasons for your questions & was in no way having a go at you just didnt't we would stand a chance if we filled in the vet question lol, just we have seen the worse & best of vets but like you we have been very lucky to find a vet we really trust now. We get that comment over rats only costing so much so would just be cheaper to buy another one just some people don't understand because its not a dog or cat how people can spend so much on a rat. God we love to show these people our vet bills for this year so far as they would be very very shocked. Maybe I should take a bit of time & put what animals we have on here.
Will be on touch Laura
