I called the vet at 4:40pm and they said that there would be a $25.00 office fee and $35.00 after hours fee. They don't close until 6:00 pm so I asked why the after hours fee and she said that the doctor leaves at 5:00. I said that if he is going to charge $35.00 for staying over for 20-30 min then I would go somewhere else since they are closed tomorrow anyway. I called the other vet that I use and he was already out. If she gets any worse I will call the emergency number, but can I give her peptobismol or anything? We were in the car driving when this happened but she has never been car sick before. I think it may be a virus or something since the cottage cheese she had this morning wasn't digested yet. She has never vomited before. Has this ever happended to anyone else. |
$25 and $35? LOL that's nothing. my vet charges $45 for regular office exam and $90 for after hours emergency.
Pepto doesn't do anything for vomiting, its just for upset stomach. She'll probably just puke it right back up. The best thing to do is not feed her or give her water and let her stomach settle. If she vomits again i'd take her to the vet.
