I spent almost 500 to get both my boys neutered.

From one New Yorker to another...must be a New York thing I paid $475.00 for a neuter & spay done this past August. Totally outrageous!!

There is a low cost clinic here that charges $35/neuter and $45/spay.
I paid about $140 for Dori to be spayed at her vet's office though.

For me it's free.

But for a boy it's $90 and for a girl I believe $150.
We also offer additional stuff if the owner chooses -- pre-surgical blood ($55), to do the operation by laser ($80), microchip ($40), e-collar ($25). So the prices can vary.

I am very thankful to have the job that I do. I had both my girls spayed today by laser and also their rabies shots... which would have cost me approx. $500.

Spay at our vet's in 2003: 65€ (78$)
2x neuter in 2004: 62€ (74$)

Our vet is not the most expensive in our area, but not the cheapest either.

Got Aurora spayed yesterday, for 35 dollars and it included Rabies shot. We have a van though, that is low cost for everyone, and free for low income people (I don't even apply for that though I leave that for the people who need it more)

$40-$45 nuter
$60-$65 spay
Lower Michigan

Mine was about £30 each.

I just had Poohbear neuter on Monday and it was 90 dollars. I didn't have the extra 40 dollars for the bloodwork. Spay is almost doubled.

Wow what a lot of variation!
I paid $178 for Pushkin: neuter, laser & bloodwork.
Wiggies came neutered.
Southern Ontario.
I've been told that my vets are expensive, but I called around and $110 seemed a common price for just the neutering op.

I have two female kitties and I got a certificate through the friends of cats and dogs foundation for $35 so it was only a total of $70 to get them fixed....now you might have to pay more if you are not up to date with their shots, and if the actual vet has their own costs, but the vet I went to accepted the certificate and there wasnt any extra costs.

The last spay I paid for (Gracie's) about six years ago was $60.

My current vet charges $90 for a spay and $65 for a neuter, but often offers a discount for rescue/feral cats. We're also fortunate enough to have a mobile spay/neuter clinic that charges $30 for neutering and $40 for a spay, along with several other low cost programs locally.

I was amazed to learn it cost me $140 to neuter my cat by the time all was said and done! Worse than that was when I had my female pembroke corgi pup spayed....$225

Here where I am in So Calif I paid $15.00 for nueter and $25.00 for spay, that was all the ones I rescued and that was a that is a low cost clinic, I had 12 girls and 4 boys done there,
I am Having My 4 yr old Female Basset done there it's between $85 and $95
The folks there are just great and I really liked the 2 Vets that I met,

I have the cats spayed at the Cat Haven which costs $80.00. About the same as a vet but I'd rather the money go to the shelter.

The dogs are about $250 for a female and $150 for a male, but with our local council's spay/neuter programme it is only $55 for dogs and $30 for cats. Pretty good, huh??

If you buy a puppy from the dog shelter it costs $255 but that includes all vaccinations, a collar and tag, a microchip and their spay/neuter. I think that's awesome. If you get a kitty from the Cat Haven it's $150 but you get the same - vaccinations, collar, tag, microchip and spay/neuter. It's really cool.

Canton/Massillon Ohio

I called various places and it was $45 (neuter) & $55 (spay) that was through a voucher certificate place. Highest was $100.00, just for surgery and medication.

Dazee was a Humane Society/ Second Chance shelter kitten, the bill was still $40 after deposit and spay certificate adjustments.

Having 3 girls and 1 boy, I wanted at least Chance to have it done around 4 months. No vet in my immediate area would do the surgery before 6 months.
I found the Neuter Scooter was going to be about 25 miles away. $40 for surgery (if paid in advance, $50 day of surgery) and $10 for pain medication per cat.

I was surprised too by the cost difference, area to area.

I'm in Texas, called the humane society who referred me to the vet clinic they work with even though meowser wasn't from the humane society. It cost me $20 to get him neutered (spaying was more). I got Munch from the humane society so he was already neutered ($40 adoption fee including neuter and first shots- good deal!)

Around here low-cost is $25-$50 for a boy and $25-$75 for a girl, inclusive. Full cost isn't much more for the surgery itself but you have to pay for the anesthesia, a fee for the operating room, etc. Total cost is around $150 for a boy and $250 for a girl.

We got Tigger spayed for around 200 CAD or about 170 USD (total cost) a few years ago, partially paid for by the shelter we got her from.

Now with Callie we live in a different city, different vet, etc. We just had her spay done a couple of weeks ago. When they gave us an estimate we were shocked and started looking around for other options. But we were told we'd have to pay an office data transfer fee, she'd need a checkup with the new vet first, etc. So it would have ended up costing the same anyway.

The cost was 368 CAD (311 USD). This included bloodwork, IV fluids, pain meds, the spay (205 CAD) and a post-op visit.

When we got Callie from the shelter they gave us a $60 voucher toward the cost, and said that on average that would be 1/3rd of the cost. Clearly my vet has above average prices! Yikes.
