5. At what age can I have my cat spayed or neutered?

Spaying or neutering can be done at approximately 3 - 4 months of age. Your pet is given an exam prior to surgery to help determine whether your cat is healthy enough to undergo the surgical procedure.  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 cat's surgery?

Procedures involving sutures often require them to be removed in 14 days following the surgery. However, some sutures are "buried" underneath the skin and will dissolve on their own. The veterinarian will let you know if your cat should be seen for suture removal.

8.  Is it a good idea to let my cat have at least one litter?

No, there is no advantage to letting your cat have one litter. However there are plenty of advantages to having your cat 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 kittens.

9. When can I schedule my cat for a spay, neuter, or dentistry?

Surgeries are performed Monday through Friday. Most cats can go home on the day of surgery. Your doctor can arrange a discharge time that works with your schedule.

10.  Do you board cats?

No, we do not offer boarding. However, we can give you referrals based on you and your cats needs.
