HollyHeart goes in next week for her spay. And I'm not really sure what to expect.
Every one of our cats has been spayed at the vet's. Well- last week when I took HollyHeart in for her second round of shots, I asked how much it was going to cost us to spay her. It was over $300! And that's $300 that needs to be spent somewhere else right now. Though- I was going to pay it if we had to. We had Sneaky Pie done there 9 years ago, I just don't remember it being so expensive.
So I called the local Humane Society- they have a clinic in the area. A little further away from the vet office- but close enough. They had room for her, so they'll do her next week (even though she's only 4 months old- I guess they're done that early)
I'm assuming they'll do just as good of a job as the vet. I won't use the clinic for anything else. Getting an appointment for shots there can be hard, (mandatory rabies shot in the area) and I'd rather pay the extra (and it's not all THAT much more) to go to the vet's once a year and be able to get in and out quickly.
