Vets should be forced to publish price lists so pet owners can see costs up front and shop around for the best deal, the competition watchdog has said. (15/Oct/2025).
Owners are often unaware of prices or not given estimates for treatments that can run into thousands of pounds, its investigation into soaring vet costs found.
Vet prices have risen at nearly twice the rate of inflation, the Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) also found.
The CMA's proposals included making vets reveal if they are part of a large group, capping prescription fees and banning bonuses on offering specific treatments.
It comes after a BBC File on Four investigation in April found vet bills had skyrocketed, and heard from whistleblowers inside the industry who blamed higher bills on big companies buying up practices.
Hundreds of pet owners contacted Your Voice, Your BBC News, with concerns over vet bills.
Vets and animal charities told the BBC in June pet owners are increasingly having their sick animals put down or they are delaying taking them for treatment to avoid spiralling vet bills.
