Do you mean vasectomy ? or castration

 

Vasectomy wont reduce smell they will be entire still

castration will redcue the smell a little

 

de scenting is a mutation & wont be perfored by any vet unless it is for a medical reason

 

costs for both operations varies greatly from area to area

Bumped into a mate the other day, said he has just had one hob castrated £23, and another V'd which cost £38. Price seems to vary depending where you live, ring around for a quote, dont just go to the first vet you come across.

Look at the national Ferret welfare Site and see if theres a ferret friendly vet near you there supposed to know what there doing .THen ask for quote tell them it a vasectomy and when you drop him off tell them again and have it written agross the top of the carrying box yoy drop him off in .

Copied form another site for anyone in the Hull area

 

 

local vets are holding their annual charity neutering week, 20th - 24th April.

 

A ferret spay will be reduced from £37.58 to £25.00 and castration reduced from £22.65 to £15.00. Dog, cat and rabbit neutering is also discounted.

 

Telephone number of the Swanbridge Veterinery Hospital (which is located within easy reach of the Humber Bridge) is: 01482 633888.

 

It's stated in the advert that a percentage of all proceeds will go to local animal charities.

You can normally pick them up the same day, so spend the day shopping in Hull, has hull got any decent sites to see, or is The Deep the only one. :D
