How to Save Money at Woolly Vet Care

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.

This veterinarian is experienced, thoughtful and has a pet-centric approach. After spending $1500 at the Pet Emergency Center for a vague/poor diagnosis that included a recommendation for exploratory surgery on a perfectly healthy cat, I went to this clinic for a second opinion. The doctor and staff were extremely kind, compassionate, and thorough with my kitty. They gave me peace of mind and were extremely affordable.

———————————————— ʜɪ⚞₍⑅ᐢ.ˬ.ᐢ₎——————————————————— I got a recommended here by a different veterinarian in Mount Vernon when asking if they knew any vets taking in new clients as they were not. My 3 fur-babies (kittens) saw the Vet here and they were thrilled. /ᐠ .ᆺ. ᐟ\ /ᐠ. ᴗ.ᐟ\ /ᐠ。▿。ᐟ\*ᵖᵘʳʳ* He was very kind to them and handled them with respect. He answered all my questions and asked me if I had any. When I asked about food/parasite care he was very informative and prepared! You can tell he really cares about animals! The staff was also very pleasant. My oldest baby is getting a neuter procedure done from here so I'll update on that when that's over. But for now I'll say this place is cat-approved! ————————————————————————————————————————— UPDATE: My Oldest Kitten came home safe and sound (*^ワ ^ *) His neuter was a success and he didn't show a hint of being in pain despite his snip-snip! ————————————————————————————————————————— My baby puppy girl ▼・ᴥ・▼ was having bad diarrhea and she wasn't very happy. The vet here quickly assessed the situation and looked at her sample! He gave us medication and suggested a health plan for her! Even though they were busy he took the time to answer my questions as well! I am very happy with the results! :> The staff was also very kind and experienced! It was a truly warm atmosphere all around!!! I definitely recommend this vet! o͡͡͡͡͡͡͡͡͡͡͡͡͡͡╮(。ᐤヮᐤ。)╭o͡͡͡͡͡͡͡͡͡͡͡͡͡͡ —————————————————————————————————————————

Excellent customer (& kitten) service and very reasonable pricing. Adequate time was taken to answer my questions thoroughly and I felt authentic care and concern for my kittens from all staff members at our 1st well-check visit.
