What Is Spaying and Neutering?
Spaying and neutering are routine surgical procedures that remove a pet's reproductive organs. While preventing unwanted litters is one important benefit, these procedures also contribute to your pet's long-term health and well-being. Depending on your pet's age, breed, and overall health, your veterinarian will recommend the most appropriate timing for surgery.
Some of the many benefits include:
- Helping prevent unwanted pregnancies
- Reducing the risk of certain reproductive cancers
- Supporting long-term reproductive health
- Helping decrease unwanted roaming and spraying behaviors
- Contributing to a healthier pet population within the community
What to Expect on Surgery Day
We know the thought of pet surgery can make any pet parent a little nervous. Fortunately, spay and neuter procedures are among the most common surgeries veterinarians perform. Our experienced team carefully monitors your pet throughout every stage of the procedure, from admission through recovery.
Before surgery, we provide detailed instructions to help prepare your pet, including fasting guidelines and information about drop-off and pick-up times. For pets over five years of age, pre-anesthetic bloodwork is recommended to help evaluate overall health before anesthesia.
Recovery and Lifelong Benefits
Most pets recover remarkably well with a little rest, a little patience, and perhaps a little extra determination to convince you they're ready to chase squirrels again by tomorrow morning. After surgery, we'll provide personalized home care instructions to support a smooth recovery and answer any questions you may have.
As a full-service animal hospital, we also offer wellness exams, vaccinations, dental care, parasite prevention, laboratory services, and additional surgical care to help your pet stay healthy throughout every stage of life.
