I can totally understand where you are coming from...I had both of my girls done at the same time back in January. Sadie was 4 yrs old and Lillie was 2 yrs old. I was a NERVOUS WRECK! to say the least. I have a very good vet that uses Sevoflourine. It's a very gentle anesthesia that is used on geriatric (human) patients. It is better to have them spayed...can reduce the chance of uterine and mammary cancer. I was more concerned about Sadie as she is the older of the two...she did better than Lillie...Sadie was rearing to go when we took them home...Lillie on the other hand took a little longer to "wake" up...But within 2 days I was running after them to stop them from jumping around...I'm not going to say I wasn't worried about them...it made me sick to my stomach. I am just so glad that I had it done and it's over with. Ask you vet TONS of questions...Have a blood panel done before her surgery. For me.....I didn't want to have them done when they were under 3 lbs....Sadie is 5 1/2 lbs and Lillie is 4 1/2 lbs.
Good luck in your decision.
