Neutering ?
Hi everyone,
Have been having a think about Lola and Lotta and wondered if I should be getting them neutered ?
They are about 3 months old, what age can you have them done and do you think it is worthwhile ?
Thoughts and opnions greatly appreciated. Also does anyone know the rough cost of this ?
Many thanks

They can usually be speyed at 6 months however some more experienced vets will neuter once a doe reaches 1kg in weight (are they both female?). It can cost between £45 and £120 dependant on your vets, in my area it averages between £60 & £70.
It is well worth getting done and this article explains why.

Thanks ! When I go and pick Lotta up from having her teeth removed I will ask about it.

I was a bit nervous about getting Tibbler done, especially since when I took her brother in for castrating he didn't survive the anaesthetic But she is so much happier now - she doesn't have any trouble with her hormones or phantom pregnancies or anything anymore. It cost £60 but I think it was worth every penny.
