The inclusion of ketamine in the drug mixture was associated with a quicker anaesthetic onset, as estimated by the participants (\n                      <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                      &lt; 0.001). Common complications were prolonged recovery (46%), bradycardia (35%), hypoventilation (32%), hypothermia (26%) and arousal (26%). Commonly encountered problems were inappropriate equipment (39%), lack of suitable drugs (27%) and inadequate knowledge of species\u2010specific pharmacology (29%) and physiology (24%).\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Limitations<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Incomplete adherence to the Checklist for Reporting Results of Internet E\u2010Surveys is acknowledged.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Drug protocols including both alpha\u20102 adrenoreceptor agonists and dissociative anaesthetics are preferred in wild felids, and the inclusion of ketamine may be useful to achieve a quick onset.
