-
Neutering costs are dependent on the species of pet you have as well as their gender and size. Please see our price list for neutering prices.
-
Neutering your pet is essentially a surgical procedure performed under general anaesthesia to remove your pet's reproductive organs so that they can't get pregnant or can't get another animal pregnant. It also poses a variety of health benefits and in some species and cases can help with certain behaviours.
-
Neutering your pet will require them to stay with us for the day, to allow for a recovery period after their surgery. One of our members of staff will be in touch throughout the day to give you an update on how they are doing and you will pick them up the same day.
-
Recovery times vary based on your pet's species, age, gender and generally on an individual basis. We offer free of charge post operative checks at day 2 and day 10-14 after the procedure to ensure they are doing well. Most pets are recovered from the anaesthesia after 48 hours and from the surgery after 10-14 days. However all pets are different and some may require more intervention on recovery than others.
Please keep in touch throughout your pet's recovery if you have any questions or worries.
