We are a full-service animal hospital with the highest safety standards and NOT a ‘production line’-style spay and neuter facility. We carefully monitor all pets during and after the procedure and EVERYONE get pain medicine – included in the prices below! (Beware of some of the ultra low-cost places which do not do this as there are many in Orange County.)
Prices include pre-surgical exam; anesthesia; monitoring; IV catheter and fluids (except for feline neuters – the procedure is very short); antibiotic injection and pain medicine to go home. We use a modern, safe, well-developed anesthetic protocol and monitor anesthetized pets with state-of-the-art monitoring equipment: pulse, temperature, oxygen saturation, blood pressure and EKG are all recorded.

Prepare For Surgery
On the day before the surgery:
- We’ll call you to remind you of the appointment.
- Do not give your pet anything to eat or drink after about 10 pm that night.
On the day of the surgery:
- Drop your pet off between 8 am and 9 am. (If you’re running late then that’s fine – we don’t start the surgeries until around 10 am – but please call to let us know.) Directions to our location.
- We’ll call you when the surgery is done to let you know a time after which you can pick your pet up. Pets do not stay overnight, so the pick-up time will be in the mid-afternoon, although we don’t close until 6 pm so you have until then to pick up.
- When you come, we’ll give you after-care instructions and answer any questions you may have.
- For payment we accept cash and all major credit/debit cards, but not checks (unless you’re an established client).
If Your Pet Isn’t Spayed Or Neutered, You Should Act NOW!!
We recommend pets are spayed or neutered as soon as possible after they are 5 or 6 months old. If you wait you risk:
- Your female cat or dog going into heat, which is messy, causes behavioral changes, and attracts male dogs.
- Your male cat or dog developing dominance or aggression-related behavior problems which may not fully resolve after the procedure has been done (the behavior may become ‘learned’).
- Your female cat or dog becoming pregnant!
Pre-Anesthetic Blood Work
We highly recommend that blood work be done on your pet prior to surgery for an additional cost of $55, although this blood work isn’t mandatory unless your pet is five or more years old. The blood work checks to see if your pet’s kidneys and liver are working properly, as these organs are primarily responsible for processing the anesthetic gas. (In most young pets they are working fine, but if not, the anesthetic gas is not safe to use – and the blood work is the only way to check.) The blood work also checks how well your pet’s blood clots, which is very important to know prior to starting a surgical procedure.
Spay or Neuter Your Pet Now To Improve Their Health, Reduce Their Risk of Cancer, and Save You Money In Licensing Fees
Spaying and neutering procedures entail removal of your pet’s reproductive organs (ovaries and uterus for females; testicles for males) whilst they are under anesthesia.
- Spaying reduces the risk of breast cancer and eliminates the possibility of uterine and ovarian cancer.
- Spaying eliminates heat cycles, which are messy; cause behavioral changes; and attract male dogs.
- Neutering reduces the risk of prostate cancer and eliminates the possibility of testicular cancer.
- Males neutered at a young age are less likely to develop dominance or aggression-related behavior problems.
- Neutering relieves your male pet of the constant urge to seek out and mate with a female in heat.
- Spayed and neutered dogs are much less expensive to license than unspayed / unneutered (intact; unfixed) dogs – spay or neuter and you’ll save $76 EACH AND EVERY YEAR!
- Spaying and neutering help ease the problem of pet over-population.
Spaying and Neutering – Myths and Facts
“My pet will get fat and lazy.” – Most pets get fat and lazy because their owners feed them too much, and exercise them too little.
“It’s better to have one litter first.” – Factually incorrect: clinical evidence indicates the exact opposite. Females spayed before their first heat cycle are typically healthier.
“But my pet is a purebred.” – So is at least one out of every four animals brought to animal shelters around the country.
“I want my dog to be protective.” – Spaying and neutering does not affect a dog’s natural instinct to protect its home and family. A dog’s personality is formed more by genetics and its environment than by its sex hormones.
“I don’t want my male dog or cat to feel less male.” – Pets don’t have any concept of sexual identity or ego. A male dog or cat doesn’t suffer any kind of emotional reaction or identity crisis when neutered.
“It’s too expensive to have my pet spayed or neutered.” – Not true, just compare our prices above with the extra $76 per YEAR it will cost you in fees to license an unspayed or unneutered dog compared to a spayed or neutered dog; or the high costs of having to ensure the health of the mother and her babies.
“I’ll find a good home for all the puppies and kittens.” – Maybe you will, but in less than one year’s time, each and every one of your pet’s litter may have produced its own litter, adding more and more animals to the population.
