Preparing Your Pet For Surgery
At Blue & White Veterinary Clinic, we understand pet surgery can be a stressful and anxious time for both pets and their owners. That’s why we take great care to ensure your pet is comfortable and prepared for their surgery. Before any surgery, we recommend you bring your pet in for a consultation with one of our experienced veterinarians. During this consultation, we’ll perform a thorough examination of your pet to ensure they’re fit for surgery. We’ll also discuss the procedure in detail with you, including any potential risks and expected outcomes.
To prepare your pet for surgery, we recommend you withhold food and water for a certain period of time before the procedure. This is to prevent your pet from vomiting during the surgery, which can cause complications. We’ll provide you with detailed instructions on how to prepare your pet for surgery and what to expect on the day of the procedure.
