Our Feline spay/neuter Voo patients 🐈:
1) Pre-operative assessment
2) Blood tests & weight measurement. To check for key organ function, to ensure your pet is healthy prior to anaesthetic and to confirm blood type.
For a rescue cat, we check for the feline viruses, FeLV/FIV. 🐈⬛
Blood-typing can be life-saving, because unlike dogs, cats must receive the correct blood type, so should your cat ever need a transfusion.
Pain medication and intravenous fluids are given during the procedure and throughout recovery. Fluids help to maintain good blood flow during the anaesthetic and help to remove drugs from the system following the surgery, making recovery as quick and comfortable as possible.
We may even ask if you would like your cat to be an occasional donor, to help save the lives of other cats.
