My vet used Isoflourine on both mine. Just make sure when you are discussing the surgery with your vet that they only use GAS anesthetic, no IV anesthetic, and that they DO NOT use a barbituate injection, which is also dangerous to our little ones. With gas, they wake up a lot sooner. With an IV, they are knocked out the whole day! Gas is always better. GOOD LUCK to your little one! Oh, and make sure you get the pre-anesthetic blood workup done to check for liver and kidney functions. And if you want peace of mind, ask them to call you with the results of the blood test BEFORE they do the surgery. I have heard some people that they paid for the blood work, but the vet didn't wait for the results of the bloodwork before starting the surgery. You could even take your little one in a day or two before to get the blood checked if you really wanted to. But the same day is fine, too. Just make sure they get the results of the test before starting surgery. |
