Our top tips and useful information regarding pet and animal health…
Pre - Anaesthetic Blood Test
Current generation anaesthetic drugs are the safest ever produced, but that does not mean that anaesthetic risk is zero. The risk to patients depends on several factors including age, presence of disease, having a full stomach, allergies, stress, amount of body fat and even breed. Minimising these risk factors is the logical step before having an anaesthetic.
Kidney Disease
Your cat’s kidneys play a vital role in maintaining thier health. They help control blood pressure, regulate the bloodstream, produce important hormones, enzymes, and red blood cells, as well as remove metabolic waste from the blood. If their kidneys aren’t able to do their job properly, this can lead to significant and life-threatening problems, such as Kidney Failure.
