What should I expect when I take my kitten to get neutered2007-11-25 12:28:54

As with humans, animals requiring surgery are subjected to a battery of surgery-related tests to ensure that everything is ok.

To ensure that you aren't being asked to authorize unneccessary add-ons, question the vet on the tests. If the vet is honest - as most are - s/he will explain them to you.

If your kitten is up to date on his shots there no other services should be required. In fact, now that I think of it, it probably is a bad idea to give vaccinations at a time when a kitten is stressed

As for humane societies and cost - every one is different. We had to have our most recent cat neutered through the humane society and by the time all was said and done, it was $150; that's not including the other $40 I gave them toward his care.

YOU SHOULD EXPECT A VERY UPSET KITTEN.

Never give a cat advil. My vet told me, it will kill them. They do make special kitty pain pills, but he wont need them. He'll be a little sleepy after the surgury, but he will soon forget all about it. You're doing the right thing. Neutered cats are less likely to stray and get hit my cars.
