Introduction to Female Cats Sterilization

Female cat sterilization is a medical procedure that removes a cat's ability to breed. Sterilization involves opening the cat's abdomen and extracting the gonads. This is done to remove a female cat's ability to be vicious and breed.  With sterilization, a cat cannot have children, and cannot produce the sex hormones associated with conception. Cat sterilization will also normalize sexual behaviors such as vigorous meowing or gathering at windows.  The vet will administer a hormone toxin after the surgery to prevent pregnancy.

Advantages of Female Cat Sterilization

2. Make sure the cat is in good health and does not have any complex health problems.
3. Perform blood analysis and blood tests to confirm that the cat is healthy. 
4. Take the cat to the Veterinarian for confirmation and discussion on the best way to sterilize.
5. Provide a quiet, less stressful area to prevent stress during surgery.
6. Take time to treat and reduce pain after sterilization by giving appropriate pain medication. 
7. Pay attention to proper nutrition and drink enough to help the healing process.

Essential Actions

A procedure where her muscles, uterus, and oviducts are removed. This ensures that the cat cannot give birth to a litter. The main purpose of sterilization is to help curb the feral cat population and the important role that a responsible cat owner can play in reducing the release or number of feral cat populations that grow around their area. The procedure is not harmful to the cat, but the most important thing is to ensure that the cat receives proper care. First, the animal must receive vaccines and a health check. Veterinary experts recommend that dogs and cats 2 months of age or older be treated with vaccines.  Two weeks after the vaccines, sterilization measures should be initiated. Before the veterinary operator performs the surgery, he/she should take a blood sample to get the proper blood work tests and screen the cats to determine if they are safe for surgery.  After that, the cat should be induced to make the anesthesia patient safe and less painful throughout the process. The surgery should not last more than about 45 minutes with the time varying according to each cat's sensitivity and the damaged area.  The veterinarian should provide good monitoring as well as proper recovery, and ensure that all procedures have been performed appropriately.When sterilization is successfully performed, the veterinarian should make the animal management staff aware of the importance of post-surgical maintenance and care.  This includes providing the cat with adequate food preparation so that its body can heal quickly. The veterinarian should also explain how the owner should properly care for the animal such as cleaning the surgical wound, and reducing the cat's activity until the surgical area can heal properly. It is very important to keep track of the maintenance of the sterilized cat to ensure that the sterilization procedure was successful. Cats not unlike dogs 2 months of age or older should be sterilized to keep the adult group of animals within the population stream.  This also ensures that the cat lives a long and healthy life.
