Answer to Question 1

Heart rate, respiratory rate, mucous membrane color, capillary refill time, palpebral reflex,
corneal reflex, eye position.

Answer to Question 2

Neonates are highly susceptible to hypoglycemia, which can be prevented by allowing them to
suckle. Also suckling will keep the neonate calm and reduce the production of stress hormones
thereby reducing the amount of anesthetic required to keep the animal asleep.
