## Why does neutering cost vary so much?

-   **Animal size:** Larger animals need more anaesthetic and longer surgery time.
-   **Sex:** Spaying females is invasive abdominal surgery; castrating males is much simpler.
-   **Practice type:** Independent practices are often cheaper than corporate chains.
-   **Location:** London and the South East tend to be the most expensive.
-   **Charity schemes:** The PDSA, RSPCA and Cats Protection offer reduced-cost neutering for eligible owners.
