Hello everyone. So ive been thinking about spaying my girls in order to prevent tumors and other health issues. Both my girls have had respiratory problems since I got them nd have been on medication for almost 3 months now and will continue to be (baytril/doxy and previously loxicom). Ive already made an appointment and explained the vet the situation, she said the risk would be higher cuz their not 100% healthy but that it can be done. Im very worried tho. I really want to get them spayed. They both came from a pet shop where people usually buy rats as feeders. I believe that they have really poor genetics and im almost certain that they will get tumors. If I dont spay them now and they get tumors they will have to undergo surgery anyway one day. I hear some whistling when one of them breathes and that comes and goes, the other one makes little noises when she breaths that I can only hear if shes really close to my ears, this also comes and goes. They seem to be breathing fine, they play a lot, eat and drink. They will get spayed within 3 days so I got them to a local vet that told me their lungs were clean. But im still a little worried that this is the right thing to do. Thoughts?
