Pre-Anesthesia Consent Form: Spay/Neuter

For spay and neuter surgery. Please complete it before the day of your pet’s surgery.

Fields marked Required must be filled in. Everything else is optional.

You and your pet

If you know it

For example: dog, cat, rabbit

The procedure

Describe the procedure, for example: dental cleaning, mass removal

Like you, our greatest concern is your pet’s well-being. A full physical exam is done before any anesthesia. The price of each procedure includes an intravenous catheter and fluid therapy, pain medication before, during, and after the procedure, and anesthesia monitoring throughout.

Your choices

Please accept or decline each option.

Pre-anesthetic blood testingRequired

A blood analysis can reveal underlying problems that may not be outwardly visible. It shows us how your pet’s vital organs are working, which can play a critical role in deciding how much risk is involved. A doctor reviews these results before giving any anesthetic.

Additional pain medicationRequired

I request an injection of Buprenex (an opioid) during surgery, and Carprofen (an anti-inflammatory) to take home to help with pain relief and healing.

MicrochippingRequired

30 to 40% of all pets will get lost in their lifetime. We recommend permanent identification with a microchip placed under the skin. This quick, simple procedure helps your pet get home if they are found and scanned by an animal shelter or veterinary hospital.

How to reach you that day

It is very important that the doctor can reach you with questions about your pet. If we cannot reach you, treatment may be postponed.
