You forgot the most expensive shot - rabies, which in most states has to be administered by a Licensed Vet. Depending upon her agreement with her vet, that also gets slapped with a office visit charge. Mine use to let me take in three for the price of one plus a discount. But not everyone might be that lucky. Really $35 is going pretty darn good which is what I thought. For years I always did my own distemper to save time, money and get them protected asap. I started getting so many reactions that I decided it wasn't worth it. So I started taking in my own distemper and my vet would administer it for no charge. Now, due to a reaction, they will only use those they have and know where handled properly (wasn't my guys reaction btw). Not sure how many vets are going down that path. But that just adds the cost of the shots now. Faith Ferrets R #1 Shelter & Rescue [Posted in FML issue 4845]
