The present work was carried out with the objective of determining the effect of the protocol xylacine-tramadol in acupunct yintang versus intramuscular administration on the level of neuroleptoanalgesy in felines subjected to orchiectomy. For this purpose, 20 felines apparently healthy, older than 8 months of age were used, with negative serology to virus feline immunedeficiency and virus feline leukemia, divided into two groups. The group 1 received pre-medication via intramuscular with xylacine 1 mg/kg + tramadol 2 mg/kg, and group 2 received pre-medication via acupunct yintang with xylacine 0,1 mg/kg + tramadol 2 mg/kg. After 15 minutes, the patients were evaluated according to the Otero Scale for the evaluation of sedation, and the post-surgical evaluation was performed 15 minutes after the procedure, according to the multidisciplinary scale of the UNESP-Botucatu for the evaluation of the acute postoperative pain. The results obtained did not show statistically significant differences (p>0,05) regarding the level of neuroleptoanalgesia between both study groups.
