CAN any vet please explain why £41.74 should be charged for ten minutes and two injections to a cat with a leg wound (i.e a bite or a trap unknown). Have people not been charged too much to look after their loved pets or has greed taken over?

Am I the only one to think this? I have had my cat for more than 11 years and therefore do not care about the price it will cost for her to be treated, but I am not rich.
