Definitely a drip but unsure about preop bloods as he only recently had his bloods done when he was so ill after the string episodebut had already planned to discuss having them redone.  Thanks to everyone who has posted so far, he has eaten a big supper and is now snoozing in blissful ignorance on his fleece on the armchair.  I, on the other hand, am already starting with the anxiety.

Have been told to starve him from 10pm but to leave his water available.

Yes rapinovet is great.

Make sure you have discussed and satisfied yourself with info regarding pre ga bloods to ensure liver and kidneys are up to it and things like intravenous fluids may also be beneficial.

also i do not know what your advise has been on withholding water before but make sure dragon has water left out all night and only taken away in the morning.

Fingers crossed all goes well and keep in mind anaesthetics are safer today than they've ever been  :hug:

The  boys have their paws crossed and they won't uncross them until you tell us that Dragan is home safe and sound tucking into a luxury tea  :)

On a serious note, Lynn always says to make sure the anaesthetic is 'rapinovet' (propofol) as this is a much safe anaesthetic.

My 17 year old cat Dragan will go in for a dental extraction tomorrow.  If you have read the warning about the dangers of string post you will know that he raided the bin some weeks ago and ate the netting from a joint of beef after which he was very very ill.  He has only just about recovered from that but this tooth has been giving him problems for a long time and the vet has tried keeping it under control with antibiotics until it loosened itself but to no avail.  So obviously I am going to be a bag of nerves tomorrow because he is not 100% and with the risk from the anaesthetic especially at his age.  Any positive thoughts you could spare would be much much appreciated by both Dragan and myself.  Thanks
