Simba is old enough to have his rabies vaccine now. He should also finish his other vaccines as well. Cost does vary depending on where you live and if you visit a vaccine clinic or a normal, in-room veterinary appointment. Here are the prices for the vetco vaccine clinic:

Neutering is not done by vaccine clinics. Low cost neuters may be available in your area or you may go to a regular clinic. There are differences in the techniques, sedation protocols and pre-op work up. General clinics will cost more for a neuter because they do a work up )to ensure kidneys are normal..etc) where as low cost clinics don't. I hope this helps and please feel free to post any additional questions.
