Surgical Services
and Preventative Care
Sterilization, spay and neuter surgeries, is essential in curbing pet overpopulation. A female cat can produce 1-2 litters annually, with 4-6 kittens per litter, while a dog can have on average 1 litter of 4-6 puppies, each year. Beyond population control, spaying your female cat or dog offers additional health benefits by mitigating the risk of ovarian and uterine tumors, as well as reducing the likelihood of uterine infections.
Timing is important and we recommended spaying before the first heat cycle, typically between 3-6 months of age. Neutering male animals not only eliminates the possibility of impregnating females, but also curbs dominant behaviors and reduces the risks of testicular and prostate tumors.
Prior to surgery, we conduct thorough pre-surgery examinations and pre-operative lab work for all surgical candidates. This comprehensive approach ensures your pet’s anesthesia proceeds safely. Throughout the surgical process, as well as during the post-operative period, we provide attentive monitoring and detailed aftercare instructions to aid in your pet’s recovery.
