Re: Small Animal Vet Fees

I can't say for sure (can't remember the costs for my first gerbils) but I think its been anywhere between £30 - £50 for when my gerbils needed a treatment/operation. That included consultation/checkup fees. Gerbils are little fighters I feel, they often respond well to treatments. Of course its worth it to see them live to an old age.

I'd like to note that if someone is ever in a position where you are financially unable to afford an important treatment you could approach the PDSA and see if they have any options for you.
