Post-Spay/Neuter Surgery Information

What to expect, and how to care for your cat or dog after spay or neuter surgery.

[@theculturevulture]

The thirstiest of comment sections for a video about spaying and neutering. :)

[@anonymous-rb2sr]

Hi, average commenter owner here, would getting my average commenter spayed reduce their undesireable behaviors such as hornyness, and desire to reproduce?

[@barbaraibiel]

You believe one vet? Spay/neuter (pretty words for “castration”) is a horrible mutilation that leaves animals permanently suffering from hormone deficiency. Hormone deficiency can cause symptoms that may not be visible to humans but make the animals suffer horribly. Castration negatively affects physical and psychological health. Castration has been linked to: Obesity Hypothyroidism Cerebellar Cortical Abiotrophy Loss of estrogen; sex and growth hormone Intervertebral disk disease Myasthenia Gravis; muscle weakness Urinary incontinence Altered moods leading to nervousness, separation anxiety, and digestive disorders Vaginal perivulvar dermatitis and recessed vulva Loss of testosterone; sex and growth hormone Narrowing of the chest resulting in respiratory disorders Failure to extrude the penis Cancer Loss of testosterone is directly correlated to: heart disease and myocardial infarction, strokes and cardiovascular disease, senile dementia, osteoporosis and hip fracture. Low estrogen levels are associated with: hot flashes, anxiety, vaginal dryness, mood swings, osteoporosis, artherosclerosis, headaches / migraines, vaginal infection, fatigue, joint pain, dry skin, thinning tissues, rapid heartbeat, bloating, back pain, depression, panic attacks and memory lapses. The American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA) policy statement says: “… potential health problems associated with spaying and neutering have also been identified, including an increased risk of prostatic cancer in males; increased risks of bone cancer and hip dysplasia in large-breed dogs associated with sterilization before maturity; and increased incidences of obesity, diabetes, urinary tract infections, urinary incontinence, and hypothyroidism.” www.avma.org/javma-news/2009-05-15/avma-mandatory-spayneuter-bad-idea More and more veterinarians are speaking out against castration (spay/neuter): kzbin.info/www/bejne/m5-zdI13Zrx5gbs More articles and studies: facebook.com/groups/3756231314548676 The alternatives to castration are: vasectomy, tubal ligation and “ovary sparing spay” (OSS) (the removal of only the uterus). I don’t see any reason to sterilize males. Males don’t get pregnant, but if someone is not convinced of that, there is vasectomy. I don’t advocate tubal ligation because most veterinarians don’t know how to do it, and as a result, cats and dogs can still get pregnant due to badly performed procedures. Also, it leaves the uterus and the risk of pyometra and uterine cancer. I prefer ovary-sparing spay (OSS).

[@praisehimnetworktwashingto254]

Wow didn’t know about the litter change.. thanks!

[@wingabouts]

I just had my dog neutered 2 weeks ago. Here's what I learned the hard way... The cord that holds the cone on needs to be double knotted - my pup had it off the 2nd day. To get the cone back on, get someone to help if possible and feed them treats while you do it. If you're alone, close the pet and you in the laundry room or bathroom. The cone pushes food and water dishes away - very frustrating! Once the dish hits the wall it just gets tipped over and they still can't get the food! I had to hold the dish up an inch or so off the ground so the cone would slide under it. I switched the cone to an inflatable donut so he could eat/drink by himself. That worked, but his head no longer rested on the ground for sleeping and so he constantly snored! I switched out the cone for nights and the donut for days - that worked ok. Bonus - he looked forward to all the bonus treats and didn't mind when I changed them out. 👍

[@barbbrandon4634]

My dog loved his cone. He was so proud showing us all the tricks he could do with it, scooping up toys, chewies, and even his food.

Is it also necessary for me to change my cat's litter from clumping type to shredded paper type even though my cat is female. I just adopted a new kitten which is a she, and she just had a surgery yesterday. I was told to use shredded paper litter, but most of the pet stores around are already closed. So, I only have clumping type available.

@@barbaraibiel why are you posting a link of proofs this is harmful in a bunch of secondary ways? OF COURSE it's harmful, but they DON'T CARE you try to convince "people" who want to become the owner of a living thing, a mammal with emotions no less, and who feel perfectly confortable deciding for them wether their bloodline should end or not, and decide to mutilate them, with arguments telling them that it harms the poor thing It's not gonna work, you can't convince people who have ill intent to not cause harm to others just by informing them it's harmful, they know it's harmful, that's the entire point, it's their goal to harm their pet, they want it to be barren and mutilated, if they don't have a problem with doing that, what makes you think telling them it would also have other negative side effects would change their minds?

I know this video is old but what if the cone is stabing their incision? My dog was very persistent. A few days went by and he started getting anxious and pulling on his tail until it stated bleeding. we wrapped a towel around his tail which seemed to help but the cone kept stabing is lower body luckily this happened around the time his incision heeled. Now my other dog is getting neutered and I was wondering how to stop the cone from stabbing.
