Surgery

From time to time, cats require surgery to diagnose or treat diseases. There are many differences between cats and dogs and, sadly, cats are often treated as just “small dogs. We focus on things like pain relief before, during and after surgery. Special nursing care, warm soft bedding, a quiet hospital area and attention to appetite are likely to make your cats surgical experience the best possible.
The management of many surgical conditions in cats is often very different to dogs. Understanding these differences allows us to provide the best possible outcome. We perform extensive soft tissue and orthopaedic surgeries and an operating surgical microscope allows us to do microsurgery when required. We accept referrals for any surgery and welcome referring vets to come and scrub in to theatre with their patients.
