Spay & Neuter
Spay and neuter surgeries are one of the most effective ways to prevent unwanted litters of puppies and kittens. These procedures also have numerous health benefits for your pets, including a reduced risk of certain cancers and behavioral problems.
At The Falls Animal Clinic, we use state-of-the-art surgical techniques and equipment to ensure your pet’s safety and comfort during their spay or neuter procedure. Our experienced veterinarians and staff will work closely with you to determine the best course of action for your pet’s individual needs.
What to know before Spaying or
Neutering my pet?
Before scheduling a spay or neuter surgery for your pet, there are some things you should take into account:
Age
Most veterinarians recommend spaying or neutering your pet between the ages of 4 and 6 months. However, the timing may vary based on your pet's breed, size, and health status. Schedule a consiltation to determine the best age to spay or neuter your pet.
Health
Before undergoing any surgical procedure, your pet should be in good health. At The Falls Animal Clinic, we will perform a physical exam to determine if your pet is healthy enough for surgery.
Weight
The weight of your pet can also affect the timing of the spay or neuter procedure. If your pet is overweight, we may recommend waiting until they reach a healthy weight before scheduling the surgery.
Recovery time
After the surgery, your pet will need time to recover. This may include restricted activity and wearing an Elizabethan collar to prevent them from licking the surgical site. Make sure you have a plan in place to provide the necessary care and attention during the recovery period.
At The Falls Animal Clinic, we are dedicated to providing high-quality veterinary care and services to keep your pets healthy and happy.
