Did you see the story about Larry the Downing Street cat having surgery?

He is 19 years old and appears to have sailed through the anaesthetic and procedure to remove a cyst from his hip.

Which is brilliant, not just for him but also to highlight how, when it comes to caring for our pets and particularly anaesthetics, age is just a number!

It can be really daunting when your vet advises treatment under an anaesthetic for an older pet but the vast majority do brilliantly and the risks are far outweighed by the benefits.

Anesthesia in pets is very safe. Studies (linked below) consistently show this and the staff at your local practice will be very experienced in it, and particularly in caring for senior and geriatric pets because this is a time of life when health issues are common and surgeries are needed. Dental disease, for example, or lump removals like Larry's.

However, we do take operations very seriously and put many layers of safety for your pets.

Most vets will run blood tests before the procedure to ensure good organ function and place their patients on a drip for extra support.

The medications we use are very well researched, highly effective and the doses will be carefully tailored to your pet.

During the procedure most clinics will monitor your pets system in a variety of ways, including their respiration, heart rate, ECG, oxygen and C02 levels and blood pressure. There will also be a well qualified member of staff, usually a Registered Veterinary Nurse, monitoring their vitals manually, and they will stay by their side for the entirety of the operation and until they have fully recovered.

We would never say that anaesthesia carries no risk but we do everything we can to keep it as safe as possible.

So if your vet has advised a procedure for your older pet, please don't discount it just because of their age!
