A Day in the life of the Bramcote Surgery
After an initial pre-operative check by our vets your pets are taken to their kennels to settle in for the day.
Patients are given some time in the morning after admission to familiarise themselves with their new surrounding environment, and new sights and smells.
Our kennels all have under floor heating so your cat or dog will be lovely and toasty warm for the duration of their stay. Temperatures are constantly monitored for comfort and we provide cats with comfortable beds and pyramid beds for the more timid pets to hide in.
Preoperative Care
Your pet will then be ready to be prepared for their day's operation. Fur will be clipped on the front leg and a cannula inserted for ease of inducing anaesthesia.
To anaesthetise your pet we use a drug called propoflo- one of the safest drugs used in humans. Then through a tube placed in the windpipe, we deliver a gas called isoflurane.
This is much much safer than halothane which was once used in pets just as propoflo is much safer than sodium pentothal which is also used in humans.
A Dental Procedure
All operations are monitored by our nurses. Blood oxygenation, respiratory rate, pulse and temperature are checked routinely throughout providing your cat with the greatest care and you with peace of mind.

Identichipping your Pet
Identichips do not expire so they offer life long protection. We use identichips with temperature sensors, so no more thermometers are required. You also have the choice of an identichip with no sensor to save costs.
