Why do animals seem to handle surgery better than humans?

Asked by knitfroggy (8982points) January 29th, 2010

My 9 month old kitten, Timmy, got neutered yesterday. He kind of limped around when he came home, but other than that, he is acting pretty normal. He isn’t quite as active as usual, but really, he seems just fine.

I’m guessing if my husband had the same procedure done, there would be much crying and belly aching, pain meds and such. Why do animals seem so un-fazed by surgery?
