neutering

Hi, my 5.5 months kitten went through his neuter surgery today. He was supposed to stay with the cone collar for two weeks to avoid licking or chewing the surgery wound and was supposed to be tired and with no appetite. He hated the neutered and was super stressed out, energetic and hungry. I...

Evening paw family! Given that Osi turned 7m not so long ago we have made an appointment for his "losing dignity" day. Our vet assessed his state as a very big and healthy boy as he can be. However I don't see him peeing in the corners marking places or being annoying, in principle I don't see...

Hi there New to the forum I’ve had my male Sphynx for about 5 months now and he’s about 8 months old. He’s going to the vet on Friday morning for the snip! He has been such an amazing pet so far and it was always my intention to castrate him when he got a bit older etc. I just have a few...

I have a beautiful baby boy and I am looking for a vet in my area that is familiar with the sphinx breed and am coming up short. Is anyone from the area and know of a knowledgeable vet? My boy needs to be neutered and I know there are some concerns with certain anesthesia (particularly...

Hello all, My sweet little Baldwin is approaching 5 1/2 months and I've made an appointment to get him neutered, microchipped, and have his umbilical hernia repaired. I've been reading other threads and I've seen that 7 months seems to be the suggested age. Now I am worried it's too early for...

pixie is going to be neutered tomorrow and although the vet has reassured me they won't use ketamine I'm still worrying! Also she had her inoculations/kitten jabs ten days ago and today it's really swollen around the site although not hot or sore. Is that normal in a possible herpes kitten? I'm...

I have been hosting a male sphynx for a breeder who has't been successful at getting females pregnant and he also has had stomach problems as I've discussed on other threads. We suspect IBD. That is actually getting better so I am taking advantage of his period of better health to get his...

This is most likely a pointless post but I just needed to share how over the moon I am! As some of you may know I was really scared about having my prince neutered! After many phone calls I found a vet that dos not use ketamine, of course, like any mum, I was still very worried, I pulled up to...

so! I feel like I'm over posting at the moment and feel like an over protective crazy, but I enjoy having fellow cat mums and dads reassurance and now more than ever I need it! Upon discussions with my vet about the use in ketamine and my not being to happy with the discussion I have rung round...

Hey guys, so I booked Lucifet in today have the chop in January, whilst under they will chip him, clean his ears and teeth however! I've read up online awhile ago how they can be allergic to ketamine, and how one little sphynx went off for his teeth cleaned and never came home! So I am beside...

When I originally got Pierogi from the breeder I was in a much better place financially. I was living with cheap rent and good roommates, and working a job that paid well. That was months ago, and it wasn't long after I got Pierogi that everything started going down hill. Huge changes have taken...

Hi all. Please can you advise? My wife and daughter are cat breeders (Siamese and Sphynx) and also show them. We have a Sphynx queen (Tuppence..aka..The Tupp/fireplace goddess), recently nuetered approx 12 months? We have recently observed that she is starting to grow 'bum-fluff'...(forgive...
