My kitten's spay recuperation seems to be going along swimmingly, but I was wondering how long it will be until she can be considered fully healed. It's been nine days today.

It takes about 14 days in both dogs and cats (and humans, too, come to think of it) for an incision to heal following ANY invasive surgery. Now, at that point, the incision will still be very obvious, but it will slowly subside into a mere scar over a few weeks.
