Apollo Is Being Fixed Today! **Question - About Males Being Fixed**

[Don Juan's mom]

Don Juan was neutered at the Humane Society before I could bring him home. They kept him overnight. When I picked him up, I didn't see any stitches, just the place where the fur was shaved around where his "kitty bits" used to be. And they didn't advise confinement, other than the usual advice to keep the new adoptee in a single room until he was used to his new home.

Of course, he was an adult (18 months) at the time, and quite healthy. Perhaps Apollo has an age or health issue that made the vet issue these particular instructions?

When Groucho was neutered, our vet kept him overnight. Even though I missed him, I was happy that he stayed so the vet crew could keep an eye on him after the procedure. The next day Groucho was very happy to come home and he was his normal self.
