I have a cat that is almost 8 years old. Simon weighs in the neighborhood of 20 lbs. and can't really groom himself that well. He is long-haired and has ALOT of mats in the hair. I took him to the vet for his check-up and the vet said that Simon would have to be sedated and shaved because he bites. Simon will let me brush his back, but only while he's eating slice beef and gravy...
My question is...does anyone know the effects sedation would cause? Has anyone else gone through this? I'm kind of worried because I had a cat about 10 years ago and took her in to be spayed and she died during the procedure.
My vet said not to worry, but Simon is like my child.......
Any info (pros/cons) or alternative methods would be appreciated..........
