Wishing your friend's aunt good luck with her precious gift from heaven. the poor little thing must have been miseravle with all that milk.
As for the surgery. I would guess that most vets do know what anesthetic to use, and one could ask what they use, and discuss it with them, but not "tell" them.
I recently took my Lil Bit in to be neutered, he has a heart murmur. When I went to get him and to pay the bill, it was more than what they had quoted so I questioned the difference in price, and they told me that they used a more expensive anesthetic because of the high risk.
IMO if I did not trust my vet, I would not take my babies to him, but I would never try to tell them how to do their job. |
