My cat was spayed on 9/17. She didn't wear a cone or recovery suit for the first three days. I watch her during the day time to avoid licking, but I think she licked the incision at night. I noticed her incision look to be gaping a little bit, wants to know if it looks normal? She looks normal, eating, drinking and play. I made a suit for her to avoid licking.

She doesn't like to be in the carrier bag and driving. The vet is 20mins drive from my place, should I bring her to the vet? She is eating Amoxicillin-drop 2ml daily

Hi! It looks pretty normal to me but I'm not a vet. Could you send the photos to them, and see what they think?

The first suture is open because of licking and chewing by Mulan, but the vet said right now she will be ok, keep watching, and no need to redo the sutures. The vet asks us to put the cone back, No more licking.
