ONCOLOGICAL OPERATIONS
If your pet needs skilled treatment, the "Amis" veterinary clinic is ready to provide professional assistance. Qualified specialists offer modern treatment methods, including animal surgery.
As is known, surgical intervention is necessary in those cases when therapeutic treatment is no longer able to help or operative intervention is needed to save the animal. In any case, such assistance is provided using only modern hardware and proven methodologies
Animal surgery is a rather complicated and controversial process. Because animals, unlike people, cannot explain - where and what hurts and what kind of pain it is.
In most cases, indirect diagnostics helps. Of course, the wonderfully equipped laboratory of the "Ami`s" clinic serves as a great support, where it is possible to get all the necessary analyzes promptly. Likewise, if necessary, the veterinarian can perform an ultrasound examination or order an X-ray. In this way, it is much easier to locate the area where surgical intervention is needed.

Preoperative preparation stage
Anesthesia and its coordination
The first steps are related to preparing the animal for surgery. It must be remembered that on the day of the operation, the animal should not be fed, only given to drink water. The day before surgery, the animal should be washed with an antiseptic shampoo. A cleansing enema must be performed before certain operations.
The main stage in the treatment of the animal is the preliminary coordination of the animal's anesthesia with the owner.
Anesthesia for animals is not an unimportant matter. The type of anesthesia to be used is discussed together with the owner of the animal: local or general anesthesia. Owners of pets are often interested in the question of how long the effects of anesthesia will remain after the operation, how the animal will feel after the operation, and other questions.
Attention!
According to the legislation of the Republic of Latvia, when planning operations with anesthesia, it is necessary to sign the "Agreement on Consent to Anesthesia".
THE VETERINARY SURGEON NOT ONLY PERFORMS THE SURGERY, BUT ALSO FOLLOWS THE HEALTH OF YOUR PET THROUGHOUT THE POST-OPERATIVE RECOVERY PERIOD IF THE PET IS IN A DAY HOSPITAL
If it is not possible (or there is no desire) to leave your pet in a hospital, then the pet owner is informed in great detail about the precautions and care during the postoperative period.

CASTRATION OF PETS
To avoid unwanted offspring, most pet owners choose to castrate/neuter their pet. During periods of active searching, neutering can help prevent or reduce aggressive behavior and interest in dogs, prevent marking of territory, and improve the pet's ability to listen to the owner.
SURGICAL CASTRATION
-
Sterilization of a female cat requires a relatively serious surgical intervention, where the ovaries and uterus are removed during the operation. The procedure is performed under full anesthesia, so the cat must not be fed for at least 6-8 hours before the surgery.
-
After the surgery, the veterinarian carefully instructs the pet owner about post-operative pet care and wound care. The cat can be sterilized approx. from 6 months of age.

Castration of a cat means the removal of the testicles during the operation, under full anesthesia, so the cat must not be fed at least 6-8 hours before the procedure.

PLACEMENT OF IMPLANTS - an innovative solution!
-
Our veterinary clinic performs implants in dogs to temporarily suppress sexual function
-
On ferrets the implants are placed in for the prevention and treatment of hyperadrenocorticism.
-
This type of castration is a means of suppressing reproductive functions for a certain period of time. They can be restored later. This is a great solution to avoid castration.
-
Currently, this type of sterilization is considered the safest and most effective method of chemical castration. No interference and no side effects.
POST-OPERATIVE PERIOD
-
In the post-operative period, you should take the appropriate care of your pet: it is important to prepare a place at home to place the animal after the operation, as well as means to protect the scars resulting from the operation. These mainly include bandages, diapers, covers and protective collars.
-
Consider in advance how you will transport the animal after surgery. Rehabilitation will take a period - up to two weeks for females, up to a week for males.
-
Remember that the pet should be kept warm, it is important to process the stitches every day, in a number of cases it is necessary to take a course of antibiotics - after consulting a doctor.
-
Caring for ferrets is important: they should be placed in a separate cage where nothing and no one will disturb them; the toilet must not have high sides. Also take care of the animal's nutrition: it is quite possible that he will refuse his usual food in the first days, but water must be given.
AND MAINLY - FOLLOW THE STATE OF THE ANIMAL.
