We have several spacious cages for our patients
We also stable the animals from the morning if you, the owner, want it. We agree when you can pick up, or let you know when it's time for pick-up.

Postoperative staging
At A-Vet small animal clinic, it is important for us to provide optimal post-operative care to animals that have undergone surgical interventions. Good post-operative practice is a crucial part of the rehabilitation process, and we have strict routines to ensure that both cats and dogs get the rest, care and follow-up they need for a quick and safe recovery.
After surgery, each patient rests in an individual stall that is specially adapted to their needs. As part of good veterinary practice, we ensure that cats and dogs are housed separately from each other to reduce stress. This is particularly important in the post-operative phase, where the animals are more sensitive to environmental influences.
Each kennel is equipped with soft and clean flooring, and we ensure that it is calm and comfortable around the animals to promote faster healing. Cats have their own litter boxes in their kennels, and both types of animals are closely monitored by our animal care team. We check vital signs such as body temperature, respiration, and pain response regularly to make sure they are doing well. We have too oxygen cage for both dogs and cats!
Airing of dogs
For dogs that are housed post-operatively or for other reasons, regular ventilation is an important part of the care. After surgery, we make sure they get short, quiet walks outside when they are ready. These short walks help reduce stress, stimulate blood circulation and promote bowel function, which is important for recovery. Ventilation always takes place under close supervision, and we adapt the activity to each individual dog's post-operative condition and needs. The dogs must wear a harness to avoid strain on the operation area.
Cats after surgery
For cats, it is important to have a calm environment, and in the post-operative phase we arrange a comfortable and quiet area in the kennel. Cats have less need for ventilation, but we make sure that they are allowed to move carefully around the kennel when they are ready, our cages can be expanded so that they have more room to move in. We attach great importance to minimizing stress, which is why we keep noise and disturbances to a minimum around them and use diffusers as well pheromones.
Monitoring and care
All animals that have been through surgery, are continuously monitored by our vets for signs of pain or discomfort. We have modern monitoring equipment that helps us monitor the patients' condition after the operation. To ensure that all animals receive the best care, we use, among other things, EKG to monitor heart function, and we regularly check respiratory rate, body temperature and any other vital signs.
