Help needed with vasectomy questions.

[Country Joe 1,411]

My Hob is going in on Friday morning, but i dont even know if the vet has done the op before,

When i asked he quoted me a price told me not to feed him after 6pm Thursday,

the receptionist told me, he will tell me the dos and donts when I pick him up.

maybe i should have asked if he has done any, but I think it should be pretty straight forward.

If the vets never done that op before make sure you, (A) stress to him it's definitely a vasectomy you want for him and not castration (I've heard of this happening on more than one occasion!!) ( Ask that he removes a tiny section of the tube and doesn't just snip through them.

 

The vet I used as done loads of this type of op and always suggests leaving them 6-8 weeks before putting them in with the jills.

I suppose I could chance it putting him in with the Jill if she is not in season, as iam going on holiday for six days and it would be easier for my step daughter to feed and water them, the way i have this cage set up,

then seperate him when i get back?

Hob went through okay, altthough Vet quoted me £46, three weeks ago the receptionist said that will be £54, so i told her the price, and she spoke to him, and it went back to £46.

he said, he checked how long, before he could be put in with in season Jills, and he said seven weeks.

I got mine castrated and vet quoted me £56 each. After op receptionist told me it was a new price of £68 each as of the day before. I got it for the original quoted price. Gotta watch them lol
