I have had many pets spayed before with no real issues but I am in favor of any surgery that is better for the health and comfort of your pet. Look it up. You might just learn something new!

I am very familiar with laparoscopic surgery; it's not new and has been around for a long time.
However, that is not what I responded to.
My comment was regarding a typical spay on a pet dog or cat.

In a laparoscoptic spay, all the reproductive organs are not removed.
Only the ovaries are taken out, so your assurance that "everything" is removed is incorrect.
Why would you want to leave a reproductive organ inside your pet when it no longer has any use?
She very well could require additional surgery down the road to remove the uterus.

At a personal level, I opt for a typical total spay surgery.
A laparascoptic spay is not better for the health of your pet.
All my dogs and cats have survived their traditional spay surgery and they are all happy campers.
