Cali weighed 4 lbs but had a lot of health problems so I was waiting to give her more time to get healthy. She ended up getting sick a week into her heat and they thought she had an intestinal blockage so the surgeon opened her up and did the spay and determined no blockage and also did a liver biopsy since her Bile Acid test indiated a possible liver shunt. They also did 2 intestinal biopsies since she had several stomach problems. She had surgery by a board certified surgeon who was going to be able ro do the LS surgery if necessary. Her scar was huge and she was in the er hospital 36 hours. She did fine though. I know how scary it is to make that appointment but if you have confidence in your vet all should go well. Also have the presurgucal blood work done. Good luck! |
