IMO if u have a good, reputable source for obtaining your BP u wouldn't have to worry about much and can take your BP home right away. that means a breeder or seller w/ healthy animals that includes a BP w/o bubbles, wheezing (signs of respiratory infection), stuck shed or dimpled eyes (dehydration, low humidity/bad husbandry), mites (icky parasites), malnourishment (protruding spine), etc. etc.
it's good to have a Vet on dial and the funds to treat for your pet(s) tho so i'm glad you're taking the time to do it right.
