I adopted my cat 3 years ago and she had a clean bill of health. At her last two vet visits she got her bloodwork and shots for under $175 (in NYC). I had to take her to a new vet for her annual because we switched neighborhoods and I wanted something closer.
So aside from hating the bedside manor at this new place, the dr looked her over for 2 minutes and seemed really rushed. They recommended I get her a FVRCP for 3 years, rabies, parasite screening, bloodwork (over $400 quote), and then told me she has runny eyes due to feline herpes!
I don't know much about this but ended up doing just the basics- parasite and FVRCP to get the bill lower. She is an indoor cat but I am wondering if anyone has experience with a cat who has this. My other two vets never brought it up and told me she had allergies.
