I work at a vets - but that aside, i am happy to pay to operate on my mice if i think it is worth it. i have had 2 mice operated on now - one we put under GA twice to remove a lump that came back - but when it reappeared the third time i decided pts was best. the other mouse sadly died before the first scapel cut - but i do not regret trying as without an op she would not have lasted more than a few weeks anyway. However, i am suprised that most small pet owners dont bother - "the mouse/rat/hamster/gerbil only cost a few quid so £30 or so for an op just isnt worth it!" is very common to hear. so would you operate?????
