How to Save on Veterinary Costs at TLC Pet Care Centers

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.

I recently took my kitten here because he had a slight cough and wanted to make sure he was alright just in case. The morning before he was brought there he was running, meowing, and eating as much as I'd give him. I was told he had a cold so he was given shots, as well as medicine to take home. The check up cost about 200 dollars. However when I took him back home he only wanted to sleep. Which I thought was normal since he had the shots. After a couple hours I tried feeding him, and he was uninterested. I continued trying to feed him and let him rest but it got to the point that he couldn't stand and had lost half his body weight. I called them but received no answer, so I left a voicemail asking what to do and how to help him. I kept him warm and fed him for hours but he died the same night. I have still received absolutely no reply back to the voicemail I left and no communication whatsoever. I am utterly heartbroken over the entire situation, and would never be willing to come back here again or recommend this location to anyone who values their pets.

I have A little yorkie That has been going here for eight years. And I had a cocker spaniel and a cat that went here before my little yorkie. I can only say amazing and great things about this Place. Both veterinarians love and adore my little Coco. I just love the staff .. they show these animals so much love and compassion. But at the same time they get the greatest healthcare I’ve ever seen.🩵🩵🩵🩵
