awww Aubrey will do great! Its a fairly easy procedure for the little boys! I was a mess with my Dex when he went in, but that was bc he had a heart murmur and my vet was leary about anistethia with him... but really the surgery, no problem You'll be happy to cuddle with your little man tonight, he'll be sleepy and cuddly Im sure... Dex was!

Since he feels fine he wants to play and be his usual rambunctious self! He gets his stitches out on Tuesday and I can't wait.

Good luck...I am sure your baby will be fine!

I feel sooo lucky with my vet and how they do the neuters. My vet said it was LESS than 10 mins... and there are no stitches. They use skin glue. My little guy was not itchy or picking at his 'wound' there was no wound. He was perfectly fine the next day! They told me not to let him go up & down stairs or jump on or off furniture, but I couldnt stop him. He was only 3.6lbs when he had the surgery done. They do not keep them overnight there either. I had to pick him up at around 5pm from the vets, he was groggy and limp but the vet said he would be like that, and that it was more just relief on his end to be back with his mommy after a hard day!

I am in Atlanta in the Vinings area. Where are you located?

He'll be just perfect. Don't worry I wouldn't lie to you right.

I'm just now getting on here and checking on your little guy. I told you that they would probably let you bring him home. I'd just go on down to the vet's office at 4:30 if that's possible. Glad he's doing ok. Take care.

When we had Max and Mazie neutered and spayed (about 6.5 years ago) they didn't make us put collars on them, we had to put them in onesies, so they wouldn't lick their stiches, they also gave us this yellow sab (?) to help with healing or infection I guess, not really sure.

My little Lucy will be six months in October and I plan to get her spayed then!

I meant to ask if he was going to have stitches, oh wait. I remember they told me that I will have to bring him back in about a week to remove his stitches

Aubrey is a little over 10 months I waited a little longer, bc I didn't know that I was going to be getting a girl and that I needed to get him neutered. But I am going to get Dakota Spayed and microchipped when she turns 6 months and that will be at the end of November. So no Christmas babies for us!
