Hi all

I have just been quoted some costs from my vet for the bunnies i just wondered is these were average costs.

Teeth clipping : £24.00 these get cheaper for the next visits about £17 by the 3rd visit.

nail trimming : £11.19 (vet)

: £ 8.17 veterinary nurse

Castration : £ 81.41

Spaying : £ 101.83

Cheers

I would say thats expensive!

Where i am its:
£35.50 for castrate
£65.00 rabbit spay
£6.51 nail clip (vet or nurse)
Clip teeth is prob same price roughly

i thought it was 2
im thinking of going through the rspca if i can

I am going through RSPCA for Bluebells spay next week and that is £72.00 but my normal vets its £45 for castrate and £89 for spay

I paid £46 for my rabbits to be spayed,

defo going to look around before getting chance done then thats hell of a price difference almost 100% :o

I think thats a good idea. Fingers crossed, you can find a cheaper one.

£ 66 for a bunny castration ( £27 for a cat :rolleyes: )

The vaccs are £16 each!

That's expensive!

Not sure on neutering prices, but nails you can do yourself and even the teeth cutting.

When I was 15 I had to take my dwarf lop Chloe to the vet to have her teeth cut as her jaw broke when she was young, I feared I was going to have to put her down because of the expensive of it all and so the nurse showed me how to do it.

Go once or twice and what carefully how they do it - their is no reason why they have to go out the back to do it. Have a look at cutters - they just like dog nail cutters (or they used to be)


Nail cutter is a 2 person job until you know how, I have a few bunnies who I have to have my daughter or other half to help me with as they hate it. But a big towel helps, rap them up in it and put them carefully on their back in your arms (like a baby) and get someone carefully but quickly to cut the back claws and then the front.

I cut all my friends claws for them if they want me to or help them out doing it.
