I know how you feel. I, too, felt silly. All my pets have been spayed or neutered. It isn't like this is the first time I've been through this. I guess timing is everything, though, and I've been through way too much change lately. ("Good change" is just as disruptive, I've discovered.)
Luckily, I've got a good vet in all ways. They're heavily into compassion as well as technical skills. When I called to remind them (again) that Dingo has a collapsing trachea and I was very worried about it happening during surgery, the girl chuckled and told me my husband had one foot over the threshold and announced "I have been ordered to remind you..." (They told him he should get a goodie when he got home.

) The girl wrote it down for the *third* time. She told me "they can't possibly miss it, it's written down THREE times here!" This is also the first vet I've had that provided pain pills for the post surgical pain, just like humans get.
Dingo has a tiny, neatly sewn incision. She's recuperating well. Back to eating goodies, biscuits, chewies - everything has to have it's own name - and even tried to play "smackdown" with her buddy Samba, until my husband broke it up. The cats really missed her. They do NOT think pets suddenly disappearing is a good thing at all.
