Dogs Cats and Anesthesia – Pet tip 239
Most cats and dogs undergo some type of surgery that requires anesthesia during their lifetimes even if it is only the surgery done for spaying and neutering. Other common procedures that require anesthesia include dental cleaning or dental surgery as well as repairing broken bones. Whenever surgery is done on a pet the topic of anesthesia arises. For the purposes of this article we will be talking about general anesthesia where pets are completely unconscious. We’ve all heard about the potential risks and possible complications regarding anesthesia in our own lives, and so it makes good sense to wonder about anesthetic complications when it comes to our pets as well.
Luckily, veterinary medicine has made huge strides in reducing anesthetic complications. So long as the pet is properly monitored during the actual surgery and the pet has been carefully prescreened for possible problems, anesthesia on pets is quite safe and problems are few.

We didn't have Sir Skylar for very long but for the time we did he made our lives richer. We woke up one morning and he couldn't even walk and by the time we took him to the vet he was on deaths door with FIP. The breeder that we bought him from is still at large with 100's of families looking for her.
Good bye sweet Sir Skylar and know you were loved.
