One of my guineas has an abcess on the side of her face. I took her to the vet and she tried to examine her teeth, but couldn't see them as they were covered in food. Then she tried to put a needle in the abcess but couldn't because she was squealing and wriggling about. I have to take her again tomorrow and they will try again without anaesthetic but if not, they will give her some gas to make it easier to examine her and lance the abcess.
Do you think it's ok to give a general in these circumstances or should I insist they don't? The vet knows I'm not keen so they will try and do it without. I'm not sure I have a lot of choice? What do you think?
Thanks
