Baloo (formally Blue) is the bunny who I took in from the people who kept him with a female continuously :evil: Anyway, he went for his castration on Wednesday and I was expecting things to be straightforward. He is almost impossible to handle and bum check so I didn't check too closely before taking him down.
Had a phonecall from the vet to say he was under GA but they could only locate 1 testicle and his left side didn't have a developed scrotum, and that they would need to do a more complicated op to locate the missing testicle. He said the cost would be more and a normal castrate is £57/ spay £62 so I was perhaps expecting £200ish. Nope, the bill was £460 :? only had him 2 weeks at that point :roll:
Is this normal or is the price above average? My vet nurse friend was shocked but then she's in Scotland and i'm in London so prices are prob a bit different anyway.
Poor Baloo luckily he's recovering well now, but had to syringe feed him up until last night
