Yeah, my Monkey was good as new after the recovery period for the broken leg. The cost was a huge shock, but luckily I'd had a good period with work (freelance) so it was ok. Could have done without it, obviously, but there wasn't much of a question as to whether I was going to get him fixed, or.... not.
It did make us question the whole insurance/vet bills thing - are vet bills so expensive because insurance pays for it, and insurers want you to pay your premiums? I don't doubt that's why American healthcare is so expensive.
Local vets vary massively in cost depending on how wealthy the area is, usually. The expensive stuff is things like broken bones/chemo because they have to see a specialist for that stuff and they are just plain expensive.
Ha, does he let you tickle that belly fluff?
