I live in California.
I know this is too much, I asked around. There was this vet that told me that he charge $200.00 and just dont know the coverage, if that includes everything. I already trust the vet that did my other 2 furbabies surgery(spay). She also used the sutures that is absorbable so i dont need to come back to have it removed.
I hope this helps.

I am going to print this out and compare it when I get my invoice Saturday. And shall let you know.

How is Bella feeling now? Is she home?

I hope Friday getz the dissolvable sutures (I think Monday did, but it was 4 years ago....who remembers??? I don't recall bringing her back to have them removed.)

Thanks for the info ...
