altering rat?

[Desert Arabian]

I had two male rats, Oscar and Fred, that I had neutered so they could live with my 8 females...it was the best decision I made! However, it cost me $364 to get both of them done!! That's only because my vet is heinously over priced and charges an arm and two legs for procedures. Most places will not charge you that much- which I found out too later after the fact. He was going to charge me over $1000 to have tumors removed on 2 of my females. After the neutering, I especially loved how my boys did not have "male musk", that pungent odor that is common among boy ratties. They were super duper loveable and lived for quite some time with no health problems! For $65, I would DEFINITELY get him neutered!!

$65 is not bad at all! A girl I work with bought two ratties. A male and female. She paid $149 to have her male neutered.

I'm investigating upon their experience, if everything sounds good he's going in next wednesday.

thank you. everything looked good when I spoke with a vet over the phone today, she had done over 40 rats from all over U.S. he's going in tomorrow morning 8AM.

I am little nervous for my little sweetheart boy.

Good luck to your little boy but like everyone told me I'm sure he'll be fine.
