Surgery

As usual I went to the vet today and was expecting boredom again..at around 10 the vet brought in a female terrier to the sugery room. The terrier was actually going to be neutered. The vet said it was ok for my friend and I to watch him operate on the dog. So we did..

The operation was fast..about 15 minutes. He injected the dog with some sleeping liquid thing and soon the dog was asleep. He then shaved the fur off the abdomen and started slicing it open.

One thing that freaked me out was not the blood and guts but was the vet. He somehow didn't use gloves. Yes, no gloves. So he practically was putting his finger inside the lower part of the abdomen and pulling out the ovary. After pulling both ovaries out, he tied them up and snipped the ovaries off.

After that, a cat needed one of it's tooth pulled out(i dunno why). The vet gave it a shot and it began vomitting and all. He came in with cotton wool and all the other stuff and start pulling the tooth out. He then declawed the cat and cleaned it's ears-.-"

Overall in went well, and to think all of it took less than an hour.
