I haven't paid anywhere NEAR the prices you are posting!

And the vets I've used, they charge per extraction -- $75 -- but you only pay for a maximum of 5 extractions. If the cat needs 6 or 16 teeth out, you only pay for 5. If the cat needs 3 out, you pay for the 3.

I can't imagine cleaning a cat's teeth with no sedation. I wasn't even aware they offered such a thing!

Oh, and if the cat is 7 or older, they insist on doing a blood work up first, to ensure the cat can tolerate the sedative with no unknown complications.
