How to Save Money at S/Nipped

Schedule Regular Vet Visits

One of the best ways to save on vet bills is to prevent expensive health issues before they develop. By scheduling regular wellness checkups, your vet can detect health issues early, helping you to avoid costly treatments and surgeries down the road.

Price Shop for Pet Prescriptions

Oftentimes our fur babies are prescribed human drugs off-label. Your vet is apt to charge more for these medications than you would pay at your local pharmacy. In fact, big-box or chain pharmacies can offer steep discounts. So it’s best to price shop.

Pet Insurance

Most pet insurance providers will pay between 80% and 90% of the vet bill. You can even get coverage for routine care and things like vaccinations and dental cleanings. If you do the math, you’ll most likely find that pet insurance makes financial sense in the long run as well as gives you peace of mind.

Getting to Know Your New Vet: Essential Questions to Ask

Choosing a new veterinarian is an important decision for any pet owner. You want to find someone who is competent, compassionate, and a good fit for you and your fur baby. To help you get the most out of your first appointment, here's a list of essential questions to ask your new vet:

Tell me about your experience with [pet type].

Different vets have different areas of specialization. Some are experts with cats, some dogs, some pocket pets, and some horses. Knowing that your vet has vast experience treating your specific type of pet can bring you peace of mind.

How do you handle emergencies?

You must know what to do in case of a pet medical emergency. Inquire what after-hours policy the clinic has, whether they have on-site emergency care available, and if they have a relationship with any nearby emergency animal hospitals.

How do you communicate with pet owners?

Good communication is key to building a trusting relationship with your vet. Ask how they prefer to communicate (phone calls, emails, online portal) and how often you can expect to hear from them.

Are there any breed-specific health concerns I should be aware of?

Some breeds are predisposed to certain health conditions. Knowing what to watch out for can help you catch problems early and get your pet the treatment they need.

Do you have any questions for me about my pet?

This is a great question to ask because the answer will show that the vet is interested in getting to know your pet as an individual and is willing to listen to your concerns.

Bonus question: Can I take a tour of your facility?

Getting a feel for the clinic's environment can help you and your pet feel more comfortable during your visits. Remember, you’re not just looking for a veterinarian, you’re looking for a partnership. Do not be afraid to ask these questions and any others you can think of. Any vet worth their salt will be happy to answer them. Because the more informed you are, the better equipped you'll be to make decisions about your pet's care! And that should be every vet’s top priority.

S/NIPPED: Professional and advocates for the many at risk felines. Pictures are my foster kittens. Since 2 wk old. From bottle to healthy rambunctious and then to their forever home. Purple Cat in Crescent City has been my inspiration and my rock. Bless the two ladies who have been caring for the shop all these years. Sincerely CW.

Windy helps with all the paperwork and billing. She is very informative and kind. My dog Todd is recovering at home peacefully. I appreciate all they did for our puppy. I would recommend it to everyone. Let's keep our pets spayed and neutered. Thank you to all the crew involved with S/Nipped. Donations are always excepted. Thank you and God bless our animals.

This place has helped me spay and neuter over 20 feral cats. People would drop kittens off in the rural areas and expect them to live out life, it doesn't work that way. I would lose sleep worrying if I could catch them before another litter was born. Ten years later I still have 5 of them. Last October a little black furry thing appeared, the first thing I thought was OMG and called S/Nipped they said they were booked until December...they did a wonderful job especially in the covid times... his name is Smoky

They are efficient, loving, and cost friendly. The resident cat got her rabies shot and at the same time I scheduled a date for my kitten to be spayed. The services they provide along with the help of FOCCUS is such a need that they are fulfilling. Thank you, Flower, Kandi and our human Suzi
