 It is really worth it, if you have only one cat or dog, to either put away
in a savings account �8 per month starting when you get the pet, or to take
out one of the many vet bills insurance schemes that are about. Even Tesco
does one so it isn't hard to find them. If only these schemes were about for
rescue centres my life would be worry free.
