Does anyone know how much it would cost to get a guinea pig neautered if your on benefits? i rang the vets and they said it is around £60. But if you take your benefit proof you can get it cheaper but how much?. I heard someone saying on here for all animals now if your on benefits it is £5 to be spayed is that true? seems to good to be true.

they don't do operations it's just a clinic, you can have a sick animal checked up there for meds/flea/worm control but if it's anything surgical they will refer you to a vet.

They'll give you a voucher to get the animal 'done' cheaper. Take proof of benefit/ address etc

I would say use the old remedy of two house bricks but with a guinea pig you'd probably squash the poor bugger!

Watched a piglet get de-bollocked on Kill it, Eat it, Cook it not long ago. They just used a scalpel, opened up the sack and lopped them off... grin Mr Brain's Faggots anyone?

he didn't seem too bothered once he got put back in the pen. I think I'd be happier if they'd given it anaesthetic, but they said that they can end up not recovering so well and can end up flattened by their mum cos they can't move out the way fast enough with dodgy legs.

Used to do the piglets when I worked on a pig farm in the 60's, well I held them while the yokel did 'em. It was dead quick and then you poured that yellow iodine straight into the cut to stave off infection. They were dead 'ard them pigs, a quick squeal and then they ran around as if nothing had happened. I got the job when the Jimmy saw me, asked me where I was from, told me that Birkenhead was way out of pig country but asked did I want the job anyway to which I answered "yup, Sir!" Funny job for a sailor but there you go, it was on a shore station by the way, we didn't keep livestock on ships by then.
