Hello, my kitten had to go vets yesterday as he was limping and turns out he had somehow fractured his fibula. They performed surgery and put a pin in and closed it up and all looks good. They said they’ll see in two weeks at the check up if they’ll be removing the pin or not.
My question is - is the pin removal actually necessary? So far I’ve paid £735 and I’m not against paying whatever needs to be paid but I’m concerned they’ll charge me another £500 (surgery part of the cost) to remove it and that’s a lot of money if it’s not essential or necessary. It was a clean break.
(yes I understand about insurance and unfortunately it had lapsed within the last few weeks and I didn’t realise - all my animals are insured, this was literally an unfortunate timing).
