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.

Goodbye loving faithful friend you will be greatly missed but will remain in our hearts forever.
The house is so empty the silence is deafening, we miss your bark to greet us, we miss you laying beside us at the table during meals, but most of all we miss your happy face and unconditional love that you gave to all us. You had a different relationship with all 3 of us but with me I was your favourite and you were my protector and I thank you for being such a great dog and bringing so much happiness to my life.
Sweet dreams Hunter......
