So Khaleesi has an appointment tomorrow morning to get spayed. The people who are doing her surgery (Spay Waggin) sent me a PDF with pre-surgical instructions to follow. They said that all food and water should be taken away after midnight tonight, UNLESS your kitten is under 4 months old (she's 12 weeks). If she is under 4 months, a small breakfast should be given.
I worked at an animal hospital for 5 years and know that fasting was always an important part of surgery. Even in the PDF they say that failing to fast your pet can cause stomach problems/vomiting during surgery.
Anyone have any experience with this? Should I fast her or give her a small breakfast like they say?
Edit: Also, she is due for her Advantage (yesterday actually). Her and Kaylee are indoor kittens/cats, but I paid a lot for the four month supply I got so I want to use it while they're still kittens. Should I hold off on giving this to her until after the surgery?
