Hospitalization for a Safe Recovery

If your pet is sick, injured, or recovering from surgery, hospitalization may be necessary to help them get the best start on the road to recovery. At Kay Animal Hospital, we start monitoring your pet's condition as soon as they arrive at our hospital. Once assessed, medications and treatments are given to help them feel calm and comfortable as they begin their road to recovery. Sometimes that involves sedation, while other times all dog or cat needs is some human love and attention.

Heading Home After a Hospitalization

Regardless of why your pet is in the hospital, it is critical that their condition is stable before they head home. This means ensuring that your pet is on the mend and that you have the resources necessary to provide any ongoing care that their condition requires after discharge from the hospital.

Your Kay Animal Hospital veterinarian will examine your pet and perform any diagnostic testing necessary to determine if your pet is ready to leave and it is safe to do so.

Once your pet is healthy enough to return home, our team will give you detailed instructions for their aftercare, as well as any prescription medications that may be required to keep your pet comfortable while they recover.

At anytime you have questions, our staff is here to help. Just give us a call.
