Why the feral price is lower

Feral means our team cannot safely handle the cat — not who owns it. Every cat is examined either way. The only difference is: if we can handle your cat, the exam happens before anesthesia, which is safer, and it is the domesticated-cat price. A feral cat can only be examined once it is already under.

Dentals — $300 to $500

The price depends on the condition of the teeth. We clean, and we extract teeth that are already mobile.

Dental radiographs are not part of this service, and we do not perform full-mouth extractions. If what we find needs imaging, we refer to a practice equipped for it. Pre-anesthetic bloodwork is required for patients 8 years and older. Pain medication and antibiotics may be added.

Deposit and payment

Surgical deposit: 50% of the surgery price, due more than two business days before the procedure.

Cancel more than two business days ahead and it is refunded, or moved to your new date. Cancel later than that, or do not arrive, and the deposit is kept.

We take debit cards, credit cards and cash. No checks, no CareCredit.

Late pick-up

We call you when your pet is ready. The pick-up window is 60 minutes. If you arrive more than 90 minutes after that call, there is a charge of $25 per 30 minutes.
