After Sun Xiaomeng's car drove away, Zhang Zi'an talked and started the cleaning work. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

In fact, the cleaning here is not heavy compared to pet stores, which may be the reason why there are not too many customers. There is only some dust and cat hair in the waiting room, and the consultation room and operating room are even cleaner, probably after the business closed last night, she has already cleaned it, and today she only needs to spray disinfectant to disinfect.

Sun Xiaomeng is the only one in the clinic, and the equipment is insufficient, and it is estimated that he will not be able to do major surgery, at most he will do sterilization and fracture trauma treatment.

It is a fact that pet hospitals and pet clinics are expensive, and it can be said that they are more expensive than people to see a doctor.

Human sterilization is about 200 yuan, and dog sterilization costs 400 - from 400!

Conclusion: A single dog is not as good as a pet dog!

The valuable equipment of public hospitals that serve people is heavily subsidized by the state, while the equipment of pet clinics and pet hospitals must be purchased out of their own pockets.

This is the main reason why it is so expensive to treat pets.

An X-ray machine for pets should be at least 50,000 yuan, with a service life of 3 to 5 years, and if you count the maintenance costs, it will be more expensive, plus other equipment such as color ultrasound instruments?

Then there's rent, utilities, labor, and other messy expenses. Opening a pet clinic is not charity, practicing veterinarians have to earn money to support their families, at least they have to earn back their college tuition, and the tuition fee for studying medicine is high. If the profit of opening your own store is too small, it is better to simply close the store and go to work in a large pet hospital.

Another reason why people think that pets are expensive is that people have health insurance, but pets don't.

Nowadays, "adopt instead of buy" is popular in society, which means not to buy a pet, but to adopt one. The original intention of this slogan is good, but once the adopted pet gets sick, will the owner be willing to spend a lot of money to treat it? Surely some people will, but it is estimated that most people will not -- this is a stop loss.

Conversely, if you buy a Persian cat for 10,000 yuan, the owner is more likely to spend thousands of dollars to treat it when it gets sick than to leave it to fend for itself - which is also a stop loss.

Therefore, the ideal is plump, and the reality is skinny.

The operating room leads to two rooms, one of which is a dressing room, and the other door is connected to a short corridor with two other doors with signs "Observation Room" and "Ward".

Zhang Zi'an pushed open the door of the observation room, and there were two small hospital beds covered with white sheets, and pet ECG monitors and oxygen meters were placed at the head of the beds. Both beds are currently empty, and breathing masks are placed haphazardly on them.

Standing at the door of the observation room and looking at it a few times, Zhang Zi'an pushed open the door of the ward again.

Inside the ward is a row of iron cages, with two floors above and below, four on each floor, for a total of eight iron cages. Near the roof, a small exhaust fan buzzed and swirled rhythmically.

There are currently three tenants in the cage, a half-large golden retriever, an adult native cat, and an adult poodle.

Hearing him open the door, all three animals stood up, and the poodle barked twice.

He walked into the pet ward, and there was cat food and dog food on the shelves at the door—real dog food, not spiritual food for a single dog. There is also a water dispenser in the room with half a bucket of water.

Zhang Zi'an approached the iron cage, and the half-big golden retriever and the VIP all leaned over, obviously hungry and probably thirsty. The native cat glanced at him lazily and lay down again.

There are no scars on the bodies of the Golden Retriever and the VIP, but part of the hair on the left front leg of the native cat has been cut off, and new hair has not yet fully grown, and the wound that has been healed can be faintly seen.

In his eyes, all three animals are currently healthy, perhaps a little weak, but this may be the result of being kept in cages for a long time, and they should be in good health. Especially this native cat, judging from its hair growth, the surgery on the left front leg was done at least half a month ago, and it stands to reason that it can leave the clinic a long time ago.

So the question is, why are these three healthy pets still here?

Of course, it can't be because Sun Xiaomeng's cat food and dog food are too much to eat.

......

While Zhang Zi'an is exploring Victoria's Secret...... No, when exploring the secrets of the pet clinic, Sun Xiaomeng had already driven back to the pet home breeding base.

Her father never complained about the current state of the farm. She also knows that business has been bad lately, but what can she do? She's a veterinarian, not an advertising planner or a marketing expert.

A few years ago, the situation at the farm was very good, so her father decided to take out a bank loan to expand the scale. However, the good times did not last long, with the rise of various catteries and kennels in recent years, the comprehensive pet breeding base is in a weak position. There are two reasons, one is because the stalls in the breeding base are too big, too big and complete, and the other is because of the gimmicks and feet of the cattery and kennel, which is known as "our pets are competition-level, and the bloodline can be traced back to five generations!"

Go back to five generations, and return ten countries!

From the point of view of veterinarians, the purer the bloodline of the animal, the more fragile it is, but all kinds of strings of children are very healthy - this fragility is not visible on the surface, and when the pet is old, all kinds of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular and nervous system hidden dangers will be exposed.

The British people are the most fanatical in their quest for pet dog pedigree. She has read a survey report that more than 50% of purebred dogs in the UK are related by blood. In other words, there is a half chance that you will meet your seven aunts and eight aunts when you go out on a blind date - the picture is too beautiful to imagine.

The BBC, which has always been good at blackening itself, made a documentary - "The Sorrow of Purebred Dogs" is about this problem.

Everyone in the industry knows that in a medium-sized city, the cattery and kennel produce competition-level cats and dogs, and their candidate fathers can be counted on one hand.

In order to dilute the bloodline and reduce the hidden danger of genetic diseases, under her suggestion, the breeding cats and dogs and rabbits in the pet home breeding base are imported from other places at a high price, which will be exchanged for better health, at the cost of unstable quality, but which customer can understand this painstaking effort? Everyone is pursuing perfect quality under the propaganda offensive of CFA and FCI.

How do you say that? Since ancient times, true feelings have not been retained, and they have always won the hearts of the people.

She now regrets that perhaps it was her stubbornness that led to the high cost of the farm.

She was secretly feeling sad when she saw several strangers come out of the rabbit hutch and carry the rabbit cage outside. She knows the rabbits in the rabbit cage and is the main breed of rabbits on the farm.

"Wait a minute, who are you, what are you moving our rabbits for!" she shouted, thinking that she had met a thief in broad daylight.

"It's okay, I sold it, and I won't raise rabbits in the future. Sun Yinian followed them and walked out.

"Huh?" she froze.
