FAQs
What is spaying and neutering?
Spaying is the surgical removal of a female pet’s reproductive organs, while neutering refers to the removal of a male pet’s testicles. These procedures prevent reproduction and provide important health and behavioral benefits.
At what age should I spay or neuter my pet?
While six months is a common starting point, the “ideal” age can vary depending on your pet’s breed and size. We recommend a quick check-up so we can determine the safest timeline for your specific dog or cat.
What are the benefits of spaying or neutering my pet?
Will it change my pet’s behavior?
It won’t change who your pet is, but it does curb “hormonal” frustrations. You’ll likely see less roaming (trying to escape the house), less “marking” or spraying in your home, and a reduction in certain types of aggression. Your pet will be the same companion you love—just a bit more settled.
Is spaying or neutering safe?
Yes. These are the most common procedures we perform. We use high-level monitoring and personalized pain management to ensure your pet is safe and comfortable. Most pets are back to their usual, bouncy selves within just a few days.
How long does it take for a pet to recover after surgery?
Most pets recover within 10 to 14 days. Activity should be limited during this time, and your veterinarian will provide detailed aftercare instructions.
