Rejected petition Reduce the cost of vets’ fees, especially for out -of-hours services.

I want the Government to help reduce the cost of vets’ fees, especially with the out-of-hours provision.
I want the Government to recognise that there hundreds of pets given to rescue centres, due to the cost of vets’ fees.

More details

I want the Government to know that vets’ fees cannot be paid with a ‘working-wage’ and many animals are donated to, euthanised or left as unwanted by so many charitable rescue centres.

We want to keep our pets.
We don’t want our pets to suffer.
We want reasonably priced fees for every day of the week!
