Do pets know when they are going to the vet?

What happens if I can’t pay Vet bill?
If you receive a vet bill that you simply can’t afford to pay, your animal clinic can take your account to collections. Any balance that goes to a collections agency can negatively impact your credit. You may need to seek medical treatment right away to save your pet, and decide to consider your payment options later.

Do you trust your vet to take care of your pet?
But more often than not, a loving owner will trust their vet and sadly go along with surgery that is not only unnecessary but plain risky for a pet who does not need it. Similarly, I have known vets suggest doing an ‘exploratory’ operation on a cat just because it had been sick. But like humans, cats and dogs get sick from time to time.
Do you have to go to a vet if you have a pet?
If you are a loving owner you will not want to put your pet through cruel, lengthy and costly procedures.
