How to Save on Veterinary Costs at Meridian Animal Care Center
Preventive care
Routine wellness exams can help identify health issues early, often before they become more serious or expensive to treat. Regular checkups are one of the most effective ways to manage long term veterinary costs.
Compare prescription pricing
Some pet medications prescribed at veterinary clinics may also be available through local or online pharmacies. It can be helpful to compare pricing when appropriate to reduce ongoing medication costs.
Consider pet insurance
Pet insurance may help cover a portion of eligible veterinary expenses depending on the plan, including accidents, illnesses, and in some cases preventive care. Coverage details, reimbursement levels, and deductibles vary by provider.

My 3 babies!! Bella, Darcy and Smokey!! Darcy had a growth hanging from her stomach, making her uncomfortable and in pain. Dr. Moore took it off and Darcy feels so much better. Dr. Moore treats every one of my animals and I highly recommend her clinic.

We had to evacuate to Meridian, MS after being hit by Hurricane Ida in Southeast Louisiana. I had my elderly father with me as his home was severely damaged from the hurricane. It was a very stressful situation and with no power, it was scorching hot. I contacted Meridian Animal Care Center 1 day prior to evacuation and spoke with Bethany. As crowded as they were from other evacuees, she assured me that, "we'll make it work." When I got there the following day, they were so gracious, kind, and comforting. I boarded my cat and brought my dog to the hotel with me since he was very stressed from the hurricane and was being very clingy. I can't tell you how at ease they made me feel and by taking such great care of my cat. When you're stressed from a hurricane, you need as much kindness, normalcy, and reliability that you can get. They provided all of that and didn't even charge me for the boarding. Bethany and the rest of the staff are truly angels. We might eventually relocate to Meridian and if/when we do, we will be sure to take our beloved furbabies to Meridian Animal Care Center for veterinary care.

I will be using this vet from this day on. I took my 6 month old puppy there this evening due to him being sick on and off for 3 weeks and I love the staff... They are very friendly and caring, also everyone was great with my Eli. Dr Moore is an amazing Dr and she went over everything with me in detail. Super sweet lady! If I could give them 100 stars, I would. I can’t thank them enough for all they have already done and for the love and support 🐾❤️🐾 I feel so much better knowing my baby is definitely in absolute amazing care tonight. I highly recommend this vet if you every need one.

Dr. Moore was more than willing to postpone her vacation departure when we needed help for our dogs while passing thru Meridian on a Sunday morning. Our pets were treated and recovered promptly. She even called the next day to see how they were doing. I would recommend her highly. Fees were very reasonable.
