Cats:
Cats need to be a minimum of 3 months and 3 pounds for spay/neuter so they can also be vaccinated at the time of surgery.
Dogs:
There are many opinions on spay/neuter age requirements for dogs based on studies and future health risks associated with an early or late spay/neuter. We suggest you ask your regular veterinarian for advice.
Cats or dogs over 7 years of age will require a blood-panel from your regular, full-service veterinarian for approval by our surgeon prior to making your appointment.
Food is permitted until 10:00 p.m. the night before surgery. But then it is very important they are fasted (no food) after 10:00 p.m. the night before surgery-including treats! They may have access to water all night and the next morning. Absolutely no food in the morning.
Also known as "The Cone of Shame," and Elizabethan Collar (or e-collar for short) are designed to prevent licking, chewing, or other unsafe behavior during the recovery period after spay/neuter surgery. There are many styles available on the market.
