A man takes his guinea pig to the vet. The vet takes it into the surgery, examines it, and says, "I'm sorry, it's terminal. We'll have to put him down." The chap bursts into floods of tears, and asks if he can have a second opinion.
So the vet leads a black labrador into the surgery. It sniffs the guinea pig, shakes its head, and walks out. The vet says, "See, the dog agrees. I'm sorry, sir, but there really is no choice." The chap again starts crying, and says, "Isn't there anything you can do?"
So the vet brings in a siamese cat. The cat peers intently at the guinea pig; opens its mouth and looks in; goes round to the other end, lifts up its tail, and has a look. It then shakes its head, and stalks out. The vet says, "I'm sorry, sir, but all the signs point the same way. We really will have to put your pet down."
Reluctantly, the owner agrees. As he's on his way out, the vert presents him with a bill for £1,600. The man says, "£1,600? That's outrageous!"
The vet says, "Well sir, that's £100 for my time, £500 for the lab test, and £1,000 for the cat scan."
