Spay & Neuter Services

Spaying or neutering your pet can have numerous benefits for your pet’s overall health and longevity. This routine surgery can be performed at Compassionate Care Veterinary Hospital of Manlius, P.C. in our state-of-the-art surgical suite.

Spaying or neutering your pet can help improve their overall health and happiness:

• Longer lifespan for female pets
• Reduction in testicular cancer and prostate problems
• Female pets won’t go into heat
• Male pets may be better behaved and less prone to wandering away

If you aren’t planning on breeding your pet, consider spaying or neutering your pet when they are young so that you can prevent a whole host of health problems before they occur.

Benefits of Spay & Neuter Surgery for Pets

If you do opt to spay or neuter your pet, there are several benefits including:

1. Health Benefits: Reduces the risk of certain reproductive cancers and infections in both male and female pets.
2. Behavioral Improvements: Minimizes the likelihood of roaming, aggressive behavior, and marking territory in male pets.
3. Population Control: Helps curb the issue of pet overpopulation, reducing the number of strays and unwanted animals.
4. Longer Lifespan: May contribute to a longer, healthier life for your pet by preventing certain reproductive-related health issues.
5. Cost-Effective: Can be more cost-effective than caring for a litter of puppies or kittens and managing potential reproductive health complications.
6. Community Benefits: Supports community efforts to reduce the number of homeless animals and improve overall animal welfare.

Aftercare & Post-Surgical Recovery

While the surgery your pet is undergoing is an important element of their healthcare, recovering from surgery properly is just as important to preserving their health. Keeping your pet comfortable during their recovery process is key to ensuring that your pet’s surgery has the desired results. When we send your pet home after their surgery, our veterinary team in Manlius will give you detailed instructions as to how to care for your pet so that they heal quickly and correctly.

To help your pet recover safely, follow these tips:

• Ensure that your pet has a quiet, comfortable space indoors to rest
• Moderate your pet’s activity levels, making sure that they avoid activities like running or jumping while they’re recovering
• Avoid bathing your pet or getting their incision site wet while they are still healing
• Keep an eye on your pet’s incision to ensure that it is healing properly and is not infected
• Prevent your pet from licking or scratching at the surgical site to avoid infection

If you notice any redness, swelling, or discharge from the incision site, or if your pet becomes lethargic and unwilling to eat or drink, call us right away as this could be a sign of an infection. We will help make sure that your pet is back on the road to good health as soon as possible!
