Difficulties with anesthesia in dogs

Overview

Anesthesia is one of the greatest tools of modern medicine, whether human or veterinary. Without anesthesia, doctors for both humans and animals would not be able to perform many lifesaving procedures.

Anesthesia used on dogs today is considered to be extremely safe.  Sedatives, injectibles, and gas anesthetics either alone or in combination with each other are used to anesthetize animals so they can painlessly undergo surgery, diagnostic procedures, or health remedies that cannot be attained with the dog awake.

Difficulties with anesthesia in cats

Overview

Anesthesia is the medical ability to alleviate pain and awareness so that otherwise frightening or painful procedures can be done. Anesthesia is generally regarded as safe; however, it should never be undertaken lightly as it can be fatal in certain instances. Cats with cardiomyopathy, for example, may not tolerate anesthesia well and are at a higher risk of dying while they are under anesthesia.
