Post-operative recovery is as much about calm as it is about medication. A stressed animal heals slower. A settled one heals better.

The basics, gently

Keep the space quiet and familiar. Follow the medication schedule exactly. Limit movement without isolating them — company matters. Watch the incision without fussing over it.

Where support helps

Recovery is tiring for humans too. Steady in-home visits mean meds happen on time, movement stays controlled, and someone calm is present — so both of you can rest.
