Cat Spay Post Care
On Tuesday afternoon my two year old cat was spayed. I left her in
her carrier per the vet's directions and she flipped violently for about an hour. After I couldn't stand it anymore I just held her. A few hours later she was fine, playing like normal, eating normally. Last night she fell asleep and it was extreamly difficult to wake her. She is also not sleeping in her normal postions and does not move at all while sleeping. Today she did not get off the bed until around 5:00pm when I put her in her litter box and she went. Since then she still just falls asleep while sitting up and has no interest in eating or drinking. I did get her to eat a few spoon fulls of yogurt (her fav treat) and have using an irrigation syringe to give her water every few hours. I am worried that she is sleeping too heavily and too much. Has anyone else had this experience??? |

Has anyone else had this experience??? This does not sound normal; I have never seen a reaction like this. Please call your vet ASAP, and be sure to describe the unusual behavior in detail. Please keep us updated. MaryL |
