Had my 10 month old castrated a couple of weeks ago and it was only £80 for 3 consultations and the operation itself.  Seems as if your quote is a little high!

Had Robbie done yesterday at Easyvets total cost £91 (£60 if he did not have an undescended testicle ) FREE if I lived in a Council House !!
He is recovering well but having him running around with a protective cone collar on is a nightmare. He keeps crashing into things especially OHs legs which she doesn't find amusing not surprising really as it does hurt. Still only 8 more days to go until he gets his stitches out

If he has an undescended testicle, then the procedure is different and so cannot be compared to the price of a routine castration, iyswim  ;)

It isn't the same procedure if the testicle is far away for the scrotum. As I castrated myself dogs who had an undescended testicle near the scrotum, I can tell you it is the same procedure. And I find £220 very very expensive for this kind of surgery which is a very easy and quick one.
