One of my cats, a small calico girl, tends to react very badly when coming out of anesthesia. It's not that she is in medical danger, but when I get her home, she gets extremely freaked out, loopy, and disoriented. The more she stumbles around, the worse she gets, and I pretty much have to restrain her so that she doesn't hurt herself by thrashing around. She got some dental work done yesterday, so I had to spend the afternoon and early evening monitoring her to make sure she was OK. On a previous occasion, I think she was hallucinating, and I had to hold her in my lap for an hour.
I was just wondering how common this is. In the same situation, my other cats, who are related to her, just sleep it off.
