|
At what
age can I have my pet spayed or neutered? |
Spaying or neutering can be
done at approximately 6 months of age. Your pet is given an exam prior to surgery to help
determine whether your pet is healthy enough to undergo the
surgical procedure. Current vaccinations are required at the time
of surgery. Also a pre-anesthetic blood screen is recommended prior
to undergoing anesthesia and surgery. |
|
6. |
What is the
pre-anesthetic blood screening? |
This is a blood test
that is run here in the clinic prior to surgery. It tests
the organ functions, blood counts and clotting function of your
pet. The pre-anesthetic blood screening is done to assure
safety during surgery and the ability to heal following
surgery. |
|
7. |
How long do the
sutures stay in after my pet's surgery? |
Procedures involving
sutures require them to be removed in 14 days following the
surgery. |
|
8. |
Is it a good idea
to let my pet have at least one litter? |
No, there is no advantage
to letting your pet have one litter. However there are plenty of
advantages to having you pet spayed or neutered. These advantages
include decreasing the chances of breast tumors later in life,
decreasing the chance of cystic ovaries and uterine infections
later in life, decreasing the desire to roam the neighborhood,
decreasing the incidence of prostate cancer later in life, helping
prevent spraying and marking, and also decreases the surplus of
unwanted puppies and kittens. |
