A standard consultation is £58. If cost or uncertainty has made you hesitate to book, that is exactly the situation our Practice Plan Extra was designed for. Members pay nothing for consultations, with no limit on visits, so there is no reason to hold off. We would always rather see your pet sooner.
Dog spay starts from £460, with the final price depending on your dog’s size and individual circumstances. Every spay at Thrums includes the general anaesthetic, surgery and post-operative pain relief. If you are considering keyhole (laparoscopic) spay, which starts from £655, it is worth knowing that the slightly higher upfront cost often means a faster, more comfortable recovery. We are happy to talk through which option suits your dog best at your pre-op appointment. Practice Plan Extra members save 10% on all surgery.
Cat spay costs £158 and cat castration costs £110, both including the general anaesthetic, surgery and post-operative pain relief. Neutering is one of the most straightforward procedures we carry out, and most cats are back to themselves within a few days. If you are not sure of the right time to book, our team is happy to advise.
Dog castration costs £345, including the general anaesthetic, surgery and post-operative pain relief. There is no separate charge for the things that matter most. Practice Plan Extra members save 10%.
Dental treatment ranges from £300 to £900, and the variation is real rather than arbitrary. Until we have taken dental X-rays under general anaesthetic, we cannot know exactly what is going on beneath the gum line, and we would rather be honest about that upfront than quote you a figure that does not reflect reality.
Every dental at Thrums includes the GA, dental X-rays, post-operative analgesia, antibiotics and a follow-up appointment. We will always explain what we found and what we did before your pet goes home. If spreading the cost would help, ask us about our Dental Plan.
TPLO costs between £2,900 and £3,200. It is considered the gold standard for cruciate repair in dogs because it changes the mechanics of the knee rather than simply replacing the ligament, which tends to deliver better long-term outcomes.
The price includes the GA, surgery, implants, post-operative X-rays, analgesia, antibiotics, overnight hospitalisation and a post-op check. We know a cruciate diagnosis can feel daunting. We are here to walk you through your options clearly and at your own pace.
Practice Plan Extra is a simple monthly membership that takes the unpredictability out of everyday vet costs. Members get free unlimited consultations, free vaccinations (puppy and kitten courses, annual boosters and kennel cough), free 24/7 vet advice via VidiVet, and 10% off surgery, dentals, prescriptions and out-of-hours care.
It is designed for pet owners who want the confidence to come in whenever something feels off, without worrying about what every visit will cost. Find out more about the plan.
Yes. We offer laparoscopic (keyhole) spay for dogs from £655. Because the procedure uses small incisions rather than a full open approach, there is typically less post-operative discomfort and a noticeably faster return to normal activity. It is a particularly good option for active dogs. If you would like to know whether keyhole is right for your dog, just ask at your consultation.
If your pet needs urgent care outside of our regular opening hours, a surcharge is added to the cost of treatment: £192 before 10pm and £225 after 10pm. Practice Plan Extra members receive 10% off.
If you are ever unsure whether something needs immediate attention, VidiVet (free to Practice Plan members) is available 24/7 and can help you decide whether your pet needs to be seen right away.
A puppy vaccination course costs £99 and protects against a range of serious but preventable conditions. Completing it on schedule gives your puppy the best possible start. Practice Plan Extra members receive all primary vaccinations included in their monthly plan at no extra cost. If you have just brought a new puppy home, we would love to meet them. Book online or give your nearest practice a call.
