My boy was neutered 2 weeks ago, just had the stitches removed today

. They did bloodwork a few days before and it cost separately, but definitely you should do it. On neuter day I dropped him off in the morning, signed the release form and was told to call about 4-5 to see how he was doing. They flushed his tear docts as well but he didn't need any teeth removed - he actually lost his last one a couple days before surgery

... No microchip and they didn't need to shave the paw (I had OK'd it in case of emergency to put caterer in). Hubby went to pick him up around 6 (I had to work

) and the vet opted to leave Pepper overnight as he was already sleeping and was sedated, really out of there. I went to pick him up first thing in the morning and he was very happy, already eaten his breakfast and I actually had a tough time to keep him calm during the first few days, he was back to his hyper self in no time... Bloodwork and neuter cost me around 230.
