C-Sections for Pets in Somerset
Most animals give birth without any complications. However, mothers occasionally need help with delivery and will require a Caesarian section.
During a C-section, the mother is given an anesthetic and then an incision is made along her abdomen and through the uterus to retrieve unborn puppies or kittens.
In some situations, we may recommend that the mother be spayed during this procedure, usually to prevent future problems of this nature.
