How Long Does My Pet Need to Recover from Surgery?
The recovery time for soft tissue surgery can vary depending on the specific procedure performed and your pet’s overall health. In general, dogs and cats may need several weeks to heal fully after soft-tissue surgery. During the initial days post-surgery, it’s crucial to provide your pet with a calm and comfortable environment. You will also need to restrict their activity and administer any prescribed medications as directed by your veterinarian. A follow-up appointment may also be necessary so we can see how well your pet is healing, make adjustments to their recovery plan as needed, and answer your questions.
