 Haematology, Biochemistry, infectious disease screening and blood typing should be undertaken before a potential donor gives blood. Ideally donors will have not travelled outside the UK and hence avoided contracting exotic blood borne diseases.
 Donors should be of a certain weight, dogs at least 25kg and cats at least 4.5kg.
-Cats should ideally have been tested negative for [[Feline Leukaemia Virus|FeLV]], [[Feline Immunodeficiency Virus|FIV]] and [[Mycoplasma haemofelis|''Mycoplasma haemofelis'']] prior to each donation.

 Additionaly it is important to use donors with a good temperament who will tolerate the procedure.

 Additionally a delayed haemolytic reaction can occur 2-21 days after the transfusion with similar signs as haemolytic reactions.
-'''Non-haemolytic reactions''' involve an acute hypersensitivity reaction where patients present with a range of signs from pruritus, erythema, oedema, [[Dyspnoea|dyspnoea]] and urticaria.

 If a reaction does occur then the transfusion should be stopped and the patient should be closely monitored.
