Perineal Urethrostomy
Our dedicated team of veterinary professionals understands the unique challenges associated with feline urinary tract health, and we are committed to helping cats regain their comfort and quality of life. Our board-certified veterinarian, Dr. Amanda Kennedy, DAVBP (Feline), performs perineal urethrostomies at Just Cats Veterinary Clinic.
A perineal urethrostomy is a surgical procedure performed on male cats to address urinary obstructions or recurring urethral blockages. This procedure involves creating a new opening in the urethra, allowing urine to bypass potential obstructions and flow more freely. It is often recommended for cats with severe urinary tract disease, urinary stones, or urethral strictures that cannot be resolved through other treatments.
At our hospital, we approach perineal urethrostomy procedures with the utmost care and precision. Dr. Kennedy is skilled in performing this complex surgery, utilizing advanced techniques and state-of-the-art equipment. We prioritize the safety and well-being of our feline patients, ensuring they receive appropriate pain management and monitoring throughout the entire process.
Following the procedure, our team provides comprehensive post-operative care instructions to aid in your cat's recovery. We understand the concerns and questions that come with a perineal urethrostomy, and we are here to provide support and guidance to both you and your cat during this time.
Rest assured that your cat's health and comfort are our top priorities. We are dedicated to delivering the highest standard of care, employing a compassionate approach, and maintaining open lines of communication with pet owners. If you believe your cat may benefit from a perineal urethrostomy or have any questions about the procedure, please don't hesitate to contact us. We are here to help your feline companion live a happier, healthier life.
