Does anyone here have experience dealing with a URI cat and having him be under anesthesia for dental cleaning while he's being medicated? Is that safe? I talked to my vet, and apparently his URI is being caused by gingivitis so in order to control/make that disappear he has to be under anesthesia. But a vet tech told me that the URI should be gone (ie he doesn't have to be medicated) before being put under...
It's just my vet is insisting on doing the cleaning asap but I don't exactly have the right amount of funds after his blood test & meds for the URI... and I wonder if my vet is selling me the cleaning because of the cost.
Any help would be much appreciated!
