How can you find how much it is to declaw a cat?

A phone call to a local veterinarian during normal business hours is the best way to determine the cost of declawing a cat. Referrals may be obtained by contacting the state's veterinary medical association.

According to the pet care experts at CostHelper, the two most common procedures typically range in price from $100 to $250, depending on the doctor and the method used.

Some veterinarians offer a laser method in which a laser is used to remove the bones from which the claws grow. This results in less pain and little to no bleeding. Such operations are more expensive, often ranging from $250 to $450.

Many veterinarians recommend or require a pre-surgery blood test to check liver and kidney function. This often costs an additional $40 or $50.
