Desexing Cats

cat collar

We strongly recommend that all kittens not intended for breeding should be desexed at about 5 & half months of age before they reach sexual maturity. In females this will be before they come into season (on heat) for the first time.

Desexing is done as day surgery. You will be sent out pre-anaesthetic instructions in the post when you book the surgery.

Your pet would be admitted in the morning usually between 8 & 9.30. The surgery is usually performed late morning after pre anaesthetic health checks & blood tests have been performed & your pet would then be ready to go home some time after 3.30. We are open until 8pm so a later pickup is available if required.
