Spaying helps prevent uterine infections and breast tumours, which are malignant or cancerous in about 50% of dogs and 90% of cats. Spaying your cat/dog before her first heat offers the best protection from these diseases. Neutering your male companion prevents testicular cancer and some prostate problems.
Paano nakakatulong ang kapon sa ating mga alaga?
Nakakatulong ang spay para makaiwas sa mga uterine infection at breast tumors ang ating mga alagang babae. Ang pag-neuter ay maaaring makatulong sa pag-iwas sa testicular cancer at problema sa prostate para sa mga lalaking hayop.
At what age can I have my companion animal neutered?
Cats can be neutered at the age of 4 months and at least 2.5 kg. Dogs can be neutered at the age of 6 months. For male companions, they can be castrated when both of the balls have fully descended but if they reach 6 months and both of their balls have not yet fully descended it’s more likely to be inguinal or abdominal.
Ilang taon ko pwedeng ipakapon ang aking alaga?
Ang mga pusa ay pwede nang maikapon kapag sila ay 4 na buwang taong gulang na, at may timbang na 2.5kg. Ang mga aso ay maikakapon kapag sila ay 6 na buwan na. Para sa mga lalaking hayop, maaari silang maikapon kapag parehong balls nila ay bumaba na. Kapag sila ay 6 na buwan na at hindi pa buong nakalawlaw ang kanilang mga balls, maaaring ito ay inguinal o abdominal.
How can I prepare my cat/dog for their kapon appointment?
Two weeks before your companion animal’s spay/neuter appointment, it would be best to monitor their health and behavior. Things to watch out for are eye and nose discharge, sneezing, coughing, stool, and urination. If your companion animal has any prior illness or is recovering from a recent illness it would be best to have their blood test done before their surgery.
Anong paghahanda ang dapat gawin para sa aking alagang hayop na ikakapon?
2 linggo bago ang kanilang appointment, dapat mabantayan ang kanilang kalusugan at pag-uugali. Tignan ang mata at ilong kung may discharge, sipon, ubo, o iba sa kanilang pag-ihi at pagdumi. Kapag sila ay may history na ng sakit o kagagaling lang, mas maigi kung ang kanilang blood test ay magawa bago ang kanilang appointment.
What if my companion animal just gave birth?
For newly birthed mothers it is best to wait for 2 months or until she stops nursing her kittens/puppies. The birthing process left her uterus fragile.
Paano kapag bagong panganak ang aking pusa/aso?
Para sa mga bagong panganak na alaga, mas mabuting maghintay ng 2 buwan o hanggang matapos na ang pag-nurse ng kanyang mga kuting/tuta.
What if my companion animal is in heat?
It is best to wait for the females’ heat cycles to end before having them spayed.
Paano kapag in heat ang aking alaga?
Mas mabuting patapusin muna ang heat cycle ng mga females bago sila ikapon.
Requirements for Spay and Neuter Surgery
If your pet’s blood work returns with abnormalities, their spay/neuter surgery will be cancelled. We highly recommend having their blood tests done. If you choose to not have their blood work done, you will be asked to sign an Against Medical Advice form. However, this will depend on the assessment of the doctor. They may refuse to perform surgery on specific cases.
Mga kailangan para maikapon ang alaga
Kapag may abnormalities ang resulta ng blood test, hindi matutuloy ang kapon. Kung sakaling hindi ipapa-blood test ang alaga, kayo ay papapirmahin ng Against Medical Advice na form. Ito pa rin ay depende sa magiging assessment ng doktor, at maaari silang tumanggi na isagawa ang kapon on specific cases.
Things to bring on your appointment date
Mga kailangang dalhin sa araw ng kapon
Why do I need to fast my cat/dog for 6 to 8 hours?
Companion animals must be fasted prior to surgery to prevent them from vomiting. Also, the effect of the anesthesia will be decreased when a patient has a full stomach.
Bakit kailangang mag-fasting ng 6-8 na oras?
Dapat ipag-fasting ang mga alagang hayop para sila ay hindi magsuka. Mababawasan din ang epekto ng anesthesia kapag sila ay busog.
Cages and Carriers
Please use proper cages and carriers when transporting your companion animal/s from your home to the clinic. Travel itself is stressful for them so it’s best to make their carriers as comfortable as possible. Please avoid using boxes and large containers with few holes.
Sa aggamit ng cage at carrier
Gumamit ng tamang cage o carrier kapag dadalhin ang alaga sa venue. Iwasan ang paggamit ng karton, kahon, o malalaking lalagyan na may butas. Gawing komportable ang pagbyahe para sa kanila.
Can I put my cats/dogs in the same cage after kapon?
It would be best to separate them to prevent them from licking each other’s wounds that might cause their stitches to come off and re-open.
Pwede bang pagsamahin ang mga alaga sa iisang cage matapos ang kapon?
Mas maigi na ihiwalay sila para hindi nila madilaan ang sugat/wound site ng isa’t isa. Ito ay para hindi magbukas o maapektuhan ang kanilang tahi.
How long is my cat/dog going to be unsteady after the surgery?
Your cat/dog may remain unsteady or groggy for about 2 to 6 hours after administering the general anaesthesia. Cage rest is recommended to prevent them from walking and falling over and also from running and jumping that can cause their wounds to re-open.
Gaano katagal magiging groggy ang aking alaga?
Maaaring sila ay maging groggy 2-6 na oras matapos maturok ang anesthesia. Inirerekomenda sila na pagpahingahin sa cage upang mabawasan ang paglalakad, pagtalon, at pagtakbo na maaaring makaapekto sa kanilang tahi.
How can I take care of my cat/dog after surgery?
It is recommended to place an Elizabeth Collar around their neck to prevent them from licking and biting their wounds which might also cause their wounds to re-open.
If you did not get the injectable antibiotic for your pet, you will have to give him oral medication twice a day for 7 days after the surgery. Medication will be prescribed upon pick up along with the aftercare and guidelines.
Wound care is simple, you don’t have to put anything on their wound to help it heal faster.
Paano ko aalagaan ang aking alaga matapos ang kanyang kapon?
Inirerekomenda na sila ay pasuotin ng e-collar para hindi nila madilaan o makagat ang kanilang wound site.
Kapag hindi pinili ang injectable antibiotic (Convenia), sila ay kakailanganing mabigyan ng kanilang gamot 2 beses sa isang araw for 7 days. Ang reseta ay ibibigay sa pag-pick up ng aso/pusa, kasabay ng mga paalala.
Hindi na kailangang lagyan ng kung ano ang wound site.
Vomiting, lethargy, loss of appetite, and trouble urinating and defecating
These are normal for 2-3 days after the surgery. If all these continue for more than two days it would be best to bring them to our clinic right away.
Urine retention is normal and is usually a sign of pain along with constipation.
Kapag may pagsusuka, panghihina, kawalan ng gana kumain, at kahirapan sa pag-ihi at pagdumi
Normal ito sa 2-3 araw matapos ang kapon. Kapag nagpatuloy ito, mas mabuting dalhin sila sa clinic agad.
Ang kahirapan sa pag-ihi ay normal.
What if my companion animal’s wound starts to swell?
If swelling and any kind of discharge is visible it would be best to bring your cat/dog back to our clinic for observation and assessment.
Paano kapag namamaga ang sugat ng aking alaga?
Kapag may pamamaga o kahit anong discharge ang lumalabas sa sugat ng inyong alaga, mas mainam na dalhin siya agad sa clinic para ma-observe at ma-assess ng vet.
