When cats are sedated, they cannot roll over on the other side. If they
lie
on the same side too long, they can have dangerous respiratory problems.
Someone must "flip" them every 30 minutes or so until they are awake
enough
to do it themselves.

Never heared of this. Some surgeries take far longer than thirty
minutes, and the cats are not flipped...

I was referring to the recovery period after the surgery or procedure. This
was my experience with kittens, so adult cats may be different.
