Hi There,

This sounds good. There is nothing wrong with using injectables for induction, then putting the cat on gas. Your baby will be intubated within seconds, then put on gas which she will get for the entire surgery. The tube remains in place until the cat shows signs of waking up, such as licking her lips and swallowing. Then she will be awake within minutes.

I understand your being nervous, but please be assured that your kitty is getting the very safest anesthesia possible. Even though I am a tech I get nervous also when one of my cats has to go under anesthesia. Even my 15 year-old with multiple health issues has always come through without any problems.

Take care, and I'll keep you and your baby in my thoughts and prayers.

Regards,
PHKitkat
