How We Prioritize Safety During Surgery

Our team at Best Friends Veterinary Care follows detailed safety protocols for every surgery to promote a smooth process and a quick recovery for your pet. These include:

  • Performing pre-anesthetic blood tests to check for any hidden health concerns and assess organ function.
  • Providing an IV catheter to administer fluids and medication safely during surgery.
  • Using advanced equipment to monitor your pet’s vitals as well as warming tables and soft bedding throughout the procedure to maintain their comfort.
  • Customizing pain management techniques to ensure they wake up calmly and without complications.

Our goal is to provide a safe environment for your pet at every stage of their procedure, giving you peace of mind.

Why Spay and Neuter Surgery
Benefits Your Dog and Cat

Spaying and neutering offer several advantages that contribute to your pet’s overall health. For both dogs and cats, these procedures can help prevent various health conditions and reduce behavioral issues, such as:

  • In females, preventing ovarian and uterine cancers and pyometra.
  • In males, reducing the risk of prostate issues and testicular cancer.
  • Decreasing the urge to roam in search of a mate, which lowers the chance of accidents.
  • Less vocalizing, particularly in cats, and reduced urine spraying in male pets.

Most incisions are closed with absorbable sutures under the skin, which means no uncomfortable incision post-op and no need for your pet to wear the Elizabethan collar!
