I was very nervous when Lucy got spayed since he bloodwork prior had come back abnormal, but after much thought and consideration and consultation wiht the vet who assured me she would be okay. I took the plunge and guess what she did wonderfully. But the vet did recommend that she not fast an enitre 12 hours prior to surgery and so she just fasted 8 hours, also, they injected her iv with gluclose during the surgery to make sure she didn't get a low blood sugar attack.

As far as at home, I used onesies on my Lucy to prevent her from licking her stitches, it really helped, the vet said she'd never seen an incision heal so beautifully.
