ulverston moocher 60 Posted September 7, 2010 Report Share Posted September 7, 2010 Well due to the amount of jills I keep I decided to have a hob vecectamised took him to my vets wich are shit hot with working animals of all types it was £60 to have him done left him with them rang up a couple of hours later to be told the operation was a succsess but he died later in recovery so had to pay half for the op only £30 but a bit of a bugger having to pay £30 for the privalage of having my ferret killed. I know these things can and do happen but what a bitch needless to say I am a bit apprehensive to have my outher hob to be done. Quote Link to post

Sorry to hear the bad news,the thing is theres a risk with everything we do but you could always look at it that youve had your share of bad luck this time and it doesnt mean it will happen again. All the best Seany Quote Link to post
ulverston moocher 60 Posted September 7, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 7, 2010 Cheers guys.the vets at first wanted the £60 because the operation was a succsess in there eyes and my hob had had all the treatment and meds and shit so they were at a loss if they didnt charge me thats why we split the difference if he had passed away before or during the op then they wouldnt of charged me they said.
