Hi, thanks for using PetCoach! The attached links show the services offered at VetCo and Vetco locations: https://www.vetcoclinics.com/services-and-clinics/vaccination-packages-and-prices/ https://www.vetcoclinics.com/services-and-clinics/clinic-locations-and-schedules/ There is no reliable blood test to check for pregnancy. At 28 days the kittens can be seen on ultrasound and after 45 days they can be seen on an X-ray. Vetco doesn't offer blood work or X-rays so you would have to see your regular veterinarian. If Rosey doesn't have access to the outdoors and other intact male cats I do urge you to have her examined. If she is not pregnant she could have worms or abnormal fluid in her belly from something like FIP. I hope this helps and I wish you and Rosey the best!
