My kitties are getting neutered Tuesday but both are fighting a URI. Is it safe to proceed, or should I reschedule. Pet's info: Cat | Mixed Breed | Male | unneutered | 3 lbs

Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! It would be safe to proceed as long as they are doing well based on the assessment of the veterinarian. I would keep the appointment and have your veterinarian proceed with an examination and determine if it would be safe to proceed with the procedure or not. I would say that if they are improving and doing well for the most part then it should be ok to proceed with the procedure. Good luck and have a great day!
