VCA
Soon only the millionaires will be able to afford pets. Veterinary services are becoming a monopoly.
This company was buying up all the successful hospitals in the country. And now they have been bought out by Mars Corp.! Yes, they invest in expensive, state of the art equipment, etc. but the prices also skyrocket! Soon the common USA citizen will not be able to afford any vet care and pets will suffer.
​
Their philosophy and practices in their hospitals are inhumane, IMHO!
