$20 Vouchers For Veterinary Care
Visits to veterinarians are down, but preventative care is important for our pets just like it is for us. To help pet owners, Bayer Animal Health is offering downloadable $20 vouchers for vet care as part of their Help Your Pet, Get To The Vet campaign. (The campaign will undoubtedly drum up some business for Bayer too, since they make things like Advantage and Droncit.)
The vouchers are available February 16 through February 28, 2009 on a first come first serve basis. About 80 vouchers will be available every hour on the hour each day beginning at 9:00 a.m. EasternTime and ending at 9:00 p.m. EasternTime. Up to 1,000 will be given out each day. To redeem the voucher, you must see a licensed vet between February 16, 2009 and May 31, 2009 for a preventive care visit.
