We have been recently adopted by one of the nicest male black cats I have ever come across. He even brings me squirrels and voles. Then proceeds to eat them.
And I kid you not. He swallowed an entire squirrel the other day and only left me the tail as evidence. Raw diet is the best diet. I toasted his good health. :-D

Good timing on his part as we really have been missing both Kitty and Blue since they left us.
Unfortunately for him this adoption come with a neutering price tag. :shock: :-D

I called a local clinic that is very reasonable in price and performs a public neutering service on feral cats. They have good a good reputation.
However they are using Ketoralac for a single dosage which will last at least 24 hours.
Anything I should aware? If so what substitute should I ask about?

As always.
Thanks guys.
 
Ketoralac is a:
Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID).
These drugs typically have anti-inflammatory, antipyretic, and analgesic effects.
Ketorolac seems to be an effective analgesic, but has minimal anti-inflammatory effects.
Little information available regarding use in dog and cat.

For one-time use on a young kitty it is likely fine. However, I would opt for buprenex

I'll ask if they have it as an alternative.
