This sheet answers some of the questions owners commonly ask about their
pet's anaesthetic, but we will be pleased to answer any concerns you may have
regarding &animal's procedure which have not been covered.

&es
WHEN TO COME IN&ef

The best time is between 8.30 and 9.00 am on the morning of &hisher
anaesthetic. We may be able to board cats overnight before an operation,
at no charge. If this is more convenient please let us know.

&es
FOOD AND WATER&ef

&bs
In order to minimise the risk of vomiting during anaesthesia  &animal  must
have an empty stomach, so please remove &hisher  food from 6 pm the previous
evening. &bf

Water may be allowed until 6.00 am on the morning &animal  comes in to the
Veterinary Centre, but please do not give &himher  any milk.

&es
CONTACT NUMBER&ef

Please be prepared to leave a telephone number where we can reach someone
at all times, as it may be vital for us to be able to contact you during the
procedure.

&es
WHEN TO PHONE&ef

Most work involving anaesthesia is performed in the late morning, so 
&animal  should be recovering nicely by 2 pm, and we should be able to 
give you an idea of when &heshe  will be ready to go home. &bs Please phone 
us at  2 pm.  &bf

&es
ADDITIONAL PROCEDURES&ef

If there is anything else you would like us to look at whilst &animal  is
with us, please mention it when &heshe   is  left in the morning. This is
usually possible as long as there is no conflict with the main procedure
and, more importantly, if it does not unduly prolong &animal's  anaesthetic.
