Why Does My Cat Need Surgery?

Cats may need surgeries for many reasons. Some surgeries are preventive, like neutering or dental extractions, while others are urgent, such as treating accidents, fractures or life-threatening infections. Tumor removal, bladder stone surgery and exploratory surgeries may be needed to diagnose or resolve internal problems. Surgeries is often the only way to restore your cat’s health when other treatments do not work.

Types of Cat Surgeries

Spaying and Neutering

These are the most common preventive surgeries. Spaying removes the ovaries and uterus in females, while neutering removes the testicles in males.

Besides preventing unwanted litters, these surgeries also reduce the risk of cancers, infections and behavior problems such as spraying and fighting.

Soft Tissue Surgery

This includes a wide range of procedures such as removing tumors, treating abscesses, repairing hernias or removing bladder stones.

Soft tissue cat surgeries is often done to relieve pain, improve organ function or remove growths that could turn cancerous.

Orthopedic Surgery

Injuries like broken bones, dislocated joints or ligament tears often need orthopedic surgery.

Plates, screws or pins may be used to stabilize bones. Orthopedic cat surgeries restores mobility and reduces long-term pain from untreated injuries.

Emergency Surgery

Performed in life-threatening situations such as internal bleeding, urinary blockages, twisted intestines or severe trauma.

Emergency cat surgeries can mean the difference between life and death and is often performed immediately after diagnosis.

Symptoms That May Indicate The Need for Surgeries

Cats that may need surgery often show:

Persistent pain or discomfort

If your cat is limping, crying out or avoiding movement, it may be a sign of an injury or internal issue that requires surgical treatment.

Difficulty urinating or defecating

Cats with bladder stones, urinary blockages or intestinal obstructions often strain in the litter box without success. These conditions can be fatal if not treated with surgeries.

Non-healing wounds or recurring infections

If a wound does not close or keeps getting infected, surgical cleaning or repair may be necessary to prevent further complications.

Swelling, lumps or masses

A lump under the skin could be a tumor, abscess or cyst. Surgery may be needed to remove and test it before it becomes worse.

Broken bones or visible injuries

Falls, car accidents or fights can cause fractures or deep wounds. Orthopedic surgery or wound repair is often the only way to help your cat heal properly.

Sudden collapse, bloated abdomen or severe illness

These may be signs of internal bleeding, twisted intestines or other emergencies that require immediate cat surgeries to save your pet’s life.
