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.

My beloved Goldie. She was such a strong girl. She never ever complained. She survived breast cancer and a stroke. She always protected my kids and now their kids. She always let me know how much she loved us. She was such a gentle friend. I promised I would never let her suffer, and let her go. She was not well for awhile now. I think she felt she needed to be there for me, through my breast cancer now. I miss her so very much and will never ever let her go out of my heart. Your sisters Lyric and Ruby miss you so much also. I will see you again someday my friend. I love you.
