Owned & Ruled by My Pets
My cats have had both Gas & IV method.. The Vets usally like gas due to the baby comes out of it pretty fast.. However they will scream for the first 5-10 min coming out of it due to it hurts their heads.. Now the IV is good as the cat will stay drowsy longer if needed.. Yes it takes longer for the cat to be mobile.. I would just discuss with your Vet on their feed back..

I learned very early about anesthesia and cats. When we had Nakita spayed she had severe complications from the anesthesia (Ketamine). After this close call, I try to avoid it.
I always ask for the gas alternative - usually Isoflurane. Each anesthetic has it's pros and cons so do your research and talk to the vet about which one is right for your cat.
Don't be afraid that your life will end. Be afraid that it will never begin.
