Total for everything comes to $1280.63
*sigh* she'd better know I love her!
While spaying has obvious benefits, it also has some less known potential negatives. I only mention this due to the health issues Teiya is having, & the risks of surgery. I don't know how valid this article is, but it is worth looking at to make sure you or anyone neuters for the right reasons.
