Hey all,
Today, I adopted a 6-month-old kitten from the Humane society, she's home now, and she was spayed yesterday. I have a couple of questions regarding care for her.
- She doesn't seem to want to eat or drink, I've laid a food and water bowl in the closet, where she's made her room at, and tried giving her a couple of wet foods, and some dry, she's ignored them. I'm attributing Umbra's lack of appetite to the stress of a new location. However, with the stress of her recent spaying, will this be a problem?
- What should I be looking out for with her spay sutures?
- I'm going to call my vet Monday about her wellness check, but should she not eat this weekend, should I be worried?
If I seem overly paranoid, it's because I am. I had to recently put down my last cat after only having her for a month, so I want to make sure Umbra is healthy and happy with me now. Thanks for any responses
