Additionally, when you spay or neuter your pet, you’ll have peace of mind knowing you’re not contributing to animal homelessness in any way.

The Benefits of Spay and Neuter Services

The medical and behavioral benefits of pet spay and neuter services are some your four-legged friend wouldn’t receive any other way.

• Any chances for ovarian and uterine cancers are greatly reduced.
• Mammary gland tumors are less likely to develop.

Caring for Your Pet After Surgery

After your pet’s spay or neuter procedure is complete, we will contact you immediately. We let you know how your four-legged friend is doing and set a pick-up time. When you arrive to bring your pet home the same day as their surgery, we provide detailed instructions and medications. Your pet will likely need some pain medication after this surgery. Since your pet will be recovering mainly at home, it’s a good idea to prepare for their at-home recovery time.

There are a number of things you can do for your pet after surgery:

• Give them a quiet, comfortable place to rest for at least 24 hours.
• Check their incision sites daily and watch for signs of infection or broken stitches. Signs include redness and discharge.
• Refrain from bathing your pet at least 10 days.
• Use a medical collar on your pet if they lick or chew at their incisions.
• Try to keep your pet from running or jumping for two weeks.
