getting the snip in essex

[stubby 175]

just been trying to get a price on having "the snip" done on a few of my hob ferts

getting quotes of £ to £100 each !!!!!!!! heart attack time,

found one vets in billaricay thats quoting £50, but anyone know of any others in essex that are ferret friendly and dont charge the earth

up here its around 50 but what may be worth doin is spending 50 n renting him out to your friends for a small charge that way you can make you'r money back

rent a ferret out ?

[stubby 175]

well Ive sorted it out with my local vet, 2 hobs at £50 each which although still dear, means hardly any traveling, they did try it on by saying there was another £40 charge for sending something off after the op, to check that the op was a success, which I argued how could testing something tell you if the "snip" had worked, and the only real way of knowing, is if the jills start having kitts, so they then said the £40 was optional

 

I probably will offer the hobs services to others wanting jills bought out of season, but wont be charging, they will just owe me a favour

cheers CC gave them a ring, just in case, but its gone up to £48.53, which is only about a fiver cheaper for the 2, so petrol wise I may as well stick with my local, but thanks for suggesting...

Do you not need to be on the dole or on benifit to get treated by the P.D.S.A. ???????

[stubby 175]

as the pdsa is normally volunteer vets from your local area, it must depend on the area, cos i phoned a few today, and all of them said NO

[bill88 6]

£50 is reasonably cheap.I phoned 10 or 15 vets and £50 was the cheapest.As for the PDSA,i think they are quoting for castration,not vasectomisation.

refering to getting the hob vasectomised instead of castrating it, then using it to bring whole jills out of season, when they dont want to breed or get them speyed
