Surgery on The Snippet Bus is designed for young healthy pets within a specific weight range.  This allows us to maximize the number of surgeries performed in a day, so we can reach more pets in need of services.  Older pets and those with existing illness are at higher risk of anesthetic complications and typically need special care.
