Veterinary visits are usually very stressful, not only for animals, but also for their caregivers. Fear of diagnosis, high treatment costs or unpleasant procedures – these are just some of the aspects that cause a surge of difficult emotions at the very thought of visiting a veterinary office. However, it turns out that funny situations also happen in veterinary clinics. The reaction of one of the purring patients to anesthetics surprised not only his owner, but also thousands of Internet users.
Every animal reacts differently to anesthesia
Many veterinary procedures require the animal to be placed under general anesthesia, also called general anesthesia. Some people do not realize that each body can react differently to a given medication. This is true for both humans and animals.
Often, even after waking up, animals can tell at first glance that they are still in a state of limited consciousness. The most common side effects caused by substances used to induce anesthesia in cats and dogs are:
- nausea;
- diarrhea;
- temporary loss of appetite;
- excessive salivation;
- temporary dementia.
Do not panic if your pet feels disoriented and walks unsteadily after anesthesia. Usually, the symptoms disappear the next day. They are most noticeable immediately after the animal wakes up.
She came to pick up the cat after the operation. The animal was behaving differently than usual
One day, Brainna, the owner of a long-haired male cat, went to the vet’s office to pick up her pet. The animal had just undergone an operation that required anesthesia.
The woman did not expect her ward to behave completely differently than usual. The cat was conscious, but did not seem to have any contact with its environment. He seemed to be in an alternate reality. Naturally, no harm is done to the animal and veterinarians are faced with a similar reaction from patients almost daily, which does not change the fact that the cat’s behavior caused general amusement among the staff.
This spectacle amused Brainna so much that she decided to immortalize it on film. In addition, she shared the recording on social networks.
Cat’s reaction to medication has gone viral on social networks
A video of a cat just after waking up from anesthesia has almost immediately become a hit on TikTok. Many Internet users like to comment on the video, because the animal documented in the video seemed to be asking for jokes:
- “It looks like this kitten has seen God or is taking something strong!”
- “When your tea is strangely too good”
- “Wooow, why does everything smell purple?”
- “This cat is now living all its past lives at once.” The funny video did not go unnoticed in the circles of veterinary doctors and technicians. One of the specialists did not refrain from commenting on the popular video:
Honestly, drugging cats is my favorite part of my job, she admitted jokingly.
