Our vet wants patients dropped off the night before with surgery first thing in the morning. Then, as long as everything goes okay, they are allowed to go home at the end of the day.
I'm going to work it out so I can just drop Riley off early the morning of her surgery. There's no way I can take her being alone the night before, especially when she's never been separated from me.
I know so many people have put their tinies through the operation so it helps to hear that things went fine. I'm still a nervous wreck, though!!
Hey... let's all schedule our babies for the same day then we can all go crazy together. Heehee. Can you imagine? Admin would sign on the next evening with 1,458,993 new posts! |
why do they want the patients dropped off the night before? that's totally unnecessary and probably is only convienent to them. There is no medical reason for that. I wouldn't do it. i agree that you should try to taker her in the morning of, no matter how early they start.
