Answer
Hello Kari.

Really, this answer varies. It depends on where you go. I first went to a vet clinic that specialized in cat and dogs. Just a regular clinic. The cost was about 20 dollars. Then, after receiving some medication from them that was actually more dangerous to the animal, i decided i needed to go to an exotics vet, and it does make all the difference in the world. I STRONGLY recommend it, as they can truly and accurately diagnose your pet with any ailments he/she may have. That costs me 45 dollars just for the check up. Anything extra (x-rays, medication, special testing if your going because there is something wrong) will cost extra.

I sure hope this helps.
