Ensuring the health and safety of your breeding female and her new litter – from insemination, to birth, to nursing, and beyond – is at the root of all of the services provided by the veterinary reproductive health team at Bulger.
While natural insemination and birth are ideal, neither is always the norm; every animal and every pregnancy is unique. Consider working with a team of medical professionals trained and skilled in all aspects of your cat or dog’s reproductive health when the time comes to breed them for the first, or even the last time.
