For senior pets facing major surgery, treat aggressively or focus on comfort?
Background
Modern veterinary care means many older pets recover from surgery and enjoy extra years, so some owners pursue treatment whenever it is possible. Others feel anaesthesia and long recoveries can be very hard on a senior animal, and prioritising pain control and comfortable days may be kinder. There is no single right answer, only careful conversations with your vet.
