NOTE: Consumer Reports Money Adviser did an analysis in 2010 and found that it is not worthwhile to pay extra for wellness care that covers items such as an annual checkup. Instead, keeping your pet healthy can help minimize vet costs. This includes spaying or neutering your animals, getting annual checkups and making sure vaccinations are up to date. If your animals are exposed to ticks, consider using a tick repellent during tick season.
