I was just reading about Laparascopic Spay in this thread:
http://www.thecatsite.com/forums/sho...=1#post2807031
As I had never heard of it in animals before I am very interested. I read the link provided in the other thread, but according to the description of the surgery, if I read it right, the reproductive organs are not removed at all, just something is done to prevent ovulation. (cauterizing the ovaries?)
Is this correct? Or have I missed something?
My concern is, if they do not remove the organs, doesn't it leave the kitty still vulnerable to uterine cancer and pyometra?
