are cunts.
Just seen an article on The BBC, albeit that is a Cunt of an organisation. Headline – ‘Vets say they are under pressure to bring in more money per pet’
Fuck me backwards with a half inflated balloon. We have had our dog in the vets recently, and they take great delight in just trying something else, obviously at a cost, a cost that includes, playing on owners emotions cunt tax.
They start with a quote……………if you ever have similar, instantly add £2k onto that cunt. Then they come calling saying, oh that treatment advised by our team of specialist cunts didn’t actually do fuck all. But luckily we have another team of specialist cunts who think this might work.
I appreciate vets do a sterling job with animals, but fuck my financially bankrupt hat, the cunts know already how to charge for it.
Nominated by Dry Itchy Cunt.
Vets all over the country have been bought out and hiked prices. A nasty callous lot.

We’re lucky as our little independent vet hasn’t so far been tempted to sell their surgery to Medivet etc. These big chains are the main problem and all they care about is the money. Our vet tries to keep their prices reasonable and REALLY care about the animals they treat. I can’t fault them at all😻
16
Well my vet is a money grabbing, greedy snidey cunt who’d stamp on a kids hamster if the kid didn’t hand over her piggyback.
Although they’re trying to stop access to Joe Public getting pet medical supplies.
If it’s a cut or wound treat it yourself.
Same goes for kids.

Same here I was lucky to find an independent vet within walking distance of my house. The franchised vets are just raking in money for the shareholders. Bastards.

There may need to be a touch of differentiating… there are vets that own the practice that have become or always were money-centric and lose any humanity towards the animals ; replaced by avarice. Pretty sure that’s what the cunting is aimed at. There are also exceptions to that. But not many.
On the other hand, there are vets that are the waged employees of the practice .. quite often much younger, and the majority of whom are driven by the caring side of things. I know several.
Of course the latter might someday become the former, becoming money driven. That’s the species, folks. Trends towards the negative over time.
I have 4 practices on my phone. I would only promote/recommend one of them. (The other 3 are for potential emergencies).
10
Also, the 3 are at ‘only’ ten miles distance. The fourth is 20 miles. That’s because I passed on the nearer 3 being interested enough in the outcome of any situation for my liking once they get to charge for it. If it’s life or death for the sake of the extra 10 mins (stuck behind some cunt, invariably) on the road, .. then one of the three as a stopgap.

One would think if only the RNLI / Border Farce Channel Ferry Service would provide safe passage for some vets then this problem would be solved.
More vets = lower prices. It’s basic market economics.
Instead of which we’re flooded with doctors, architects and engineers.
Why aren’t their prices falling?
11
There are actually plenty of fully qualified vets in those boats but they can only attend to lions, monkeys, giraffes etc. I don’t know about other cunters, but nobody in Bell End close has got one of those.
10
Oh well, at least Sam Beau’s pet hyena’s veterinary needs will be catered for.

The monkeys are in the boats

After my dog got his nuts liberated, he was prescribed a particular ointment…35 bloody quid! For a small tube.
My then wife (a senior nurse) coldly pointed out to the vet/thief that this product was in fact the same as the human version and was available for £2.99.
As Jill says above, most of them are owned by big business and if yours is still independant, you’re very lucky indeed.
13
Did you keep his nuts to tease him Thomas?
8
Indeed I did, MNC and good morning.
I had them fashioned into earrings.
Actually, once he healed up, he humped stuff even worse than before!
Is yours a humper?!
10
Morning Pal,
No mines a bitch so no humping.
Think mines got pirate blood,
Likes to bury treasure.
Regularly find pigs trachea and trotters hidden in our bed.
Mrs Miserable doesn’t see the funny side😂
10
Some dogs have been known to turn the other way after the op. Any issues?
5
Did you name him Harry, after he was denutted?

I’m taking my dog for a dental on Friday.
The quote is £250 for anesthetic / fluids and £753 for 10+ extractions and/or scale and polish.
So, £1k! That’s without any antibiotics or painkillers post op, but it’s the maximum they can charge because it’s a fixed price for Healthy Pet Club members.
They certainly know how to charge! You might remember that I wrote about him being unwell, and costing £300 for blood tests and dog Ibuprofen a fewer ago. The ibuprofen wasn’t keeping him comfortable for the 24 hours between doses, so I asked if he could have something extra. Yes, was the answer, so £15 for 6 dog paracetamol later!
I’m getting a goldfish next time I want a pet for company, and at least I won’t have to walk it when the weather is bad.
11
Still have to take it swimming JP.

I read a new item in the last few days about vetinary charges for the pet equivalent of human medicines, and that some official body or other were looking into making certain things non-prescription, such as pain killers, which would open up the market and, hopefully be more competitive.
I won’t be holding my breath, though.
7
Good.
Said on here about the sheep blue spray I bought.
Strong antiseptic for farm use.
Alright the dog looks odd with one blue leg but I saved money.
11
Another good product that you don’t need a prescription for is Leucillin spray.
Antiseptic spray, works on humans too.
8
Strange? I thought it sheep bluer was a marker, not an antiseptic. I use potassium permangenate whenever I need an antiseptic. Works well on pets, as it does on excema, as well as atheletes foot, & is a lot cheaper than a vet bill or some fancy cream from Boots.

This is Kruuse blue spray Scunny,
Antibacterial and antifungal,
For use on sheep, pig, cattle and horses.
Works on dogs too and guessing people?

Plead poverty, & claim off the PDSA. That’s what their charity is suppose to be there for. Good luck with that one J.P.!

Top Tip:
Terminally ill? In unbearable pain? Ready to pull the plug?
Concerned about the stress and cost to your family of going to Dignitas?
Self-identify as a dog or cat and get euthanised by your vet – save £££s!!!!
12
The only vets that don’t rip you off are our war vets 💂🪖the animal kind know you are a sitting 🦆 as far as pulling on the ♥️ strings goes unless as above like Jill’s they are still genuine and independent…the rest are cash 🐄s 😩

After my last encounter with the vets , ” no more” pets for me. To expensive.
No fucking wonder rescue centres are full.
Robbing twats…🏴☠️
20
My daughter’s got a cat and a dog, both of which came from rescue, and the pair of them are utter sicknotes, never away from the vets.
Treatment costs, medicines, ‘special’ diet foods which only seem to be available from the vets…
They cost an arm and a leg.
It really is a proper cushty little earner.
Morning all.

When living in London with a lovely lady who had dogs, we were fortunate to have a free PDSA vets nearby. You only qualified if you were skint. Each time you make a visit, you were given a brown envelope to put in a donation. Some tight fisted cunts never did. The carpark was full of pretend scroungers. After each visit, you were given the vet bill of how much it would’ve cost you if you had the money. The cost would run into thousands after a few visits. Remember people with cars never donated a thing, but we always put in a fiver even though we came by bus.
11
After getting free treatment for their pets I expect the pretendies then drove to the foodbank to do their weekly shopping.
18
Yes they did, after siphoning someone else’s petrol.

We had to have our cat put down earlier this year. When we had the bill it would have been over £1100., Thank fuck for petplan.

Vets, dentists and mechanics all cunts that have you by the bollocks the minute you walk through their door.

+ Fucking Solicitors…🤬

Funeral directors..🏴☠️

Don’t talk to me about vets, they’re a bunch of cunts. They tell you their priority is the welfare of your pet. No it fucking isn’t, their priority is to separate you from as much money as they can. Watch out for ‘healthy pet club’ offers where they provide certain extras for a monthly fee. As soon as the money starts being transferred on a direct debit, it’s like out of sight, out of mind, because it’s not like you’re handing cash over. That’s when they start saying ‘oh sorry we can’t do this, and no we can’t do that’ and making excuses why they can’t give you what you’re paying for.
A few months ago my cat was sick twice in three days, which wasn’t like her. I took her in and they said she should have her blood tested. Apparently that didn’t show anything so they suggested a scan. This is where they start to make real money. Guess what, the scan was inconclusive, it could be this, it could be that, it could be cancer, it might have spread. I was persuaded to let them operate to remove her spleen, a relatively minor op and it was an organ that she didn’t need. Then they’d get the results back from the lab.
She lasted a day and a half after the operation. She woke me up in the middle of the night howling with pain and desperately trying to vomit. By the time I’d rushed her to an all-night vet in a neighbouring town she was dead. Of course the vets said it wasn’t their fault but didn’t even offer a possible explanation. I’ve put in a complaint, and the lying bastards have even tried to say she’d been suffering with this vomiting problem for months. And the lab reported there was nothing wrong with her spleen. They are now the third vets in my area that I will have nothing more to do with.

I had to put my border collie X husky to sleep last november, he had developed a tumour on his left flank the size of a tennis ball after a week the ‘tennis ball had grown to the size of a half filled ballon! the poor cunt was suffering the vet said he needed a biopsy on it and someone else somewhere would do it, more travelling expenses on top so i told the vet to go fuck himself and i took him back to my old vet ten miles away she said he’s old now sir and would probably be best if he was put to sleep… sensible i thought anyhow i had him euthanised in the morning buried in my back garden in the afternoon poor lad but he was 13 yrs old, however pet lovers you will be pleased to know that the cma ( competition & marketing authority) are now looking into whether there is a monopoly going on regarding these cunts, r.i,p charlie

My daughters cat was on its last legs. Call the vet, no way. Cat was given a final supper of meatballs, walked into the forest and then shot in the head.
The farming life.

Come round mine and deal with the fucker that keeps shitting in my garden and trying to get my fish out of a (netted) pond.
If I catch trying to paw my Koi again the cunt will need an undertaker not a vet.
