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.

Things that I love: My grandparents and Sleeping on my owner's bed.
You'll also see my dragging my green caterpillar toy (a.k.a "the worm") around with me all the time because it is my security "blanket." My Mom has bought me many other toys but I always like to play with the caterpillar. I get scolded royally when I get caught trying to sneak sticks in through the doggie door.
Most embarrassing moment: running into the closed patio door when I thought it was open!
