Helping Your Pet Heal: The Importance of Confinement After Surgery
After surgery, your pet's body is working hard to repair itself. Excessive activity can put strain on incisions, stitches, or implants, increasing the risk of infection, bleeding, or reopening of the wound. Confinement helps to minimize this risk of complications by keeping your pet's activity level low.
Of course, confinement should not be complete isolation. It is important to provide your pet with regular potty breaks, fresh water, and opportunities for supervised interaction.
With proper care and confinement, your pet can make a smooth and speedy recovery from surgery.
