Hi there
My kitten was spayed on Friday. She went to the loo for a wee on Friday night and was fine. Since then though, she keeps on going to the litter box and has a tiny little wee at a time. And she does this lots. Sometimes she goes to the box and then doesn't wee at all. She doesn't seem to be in distress at all and is her normal playful self. I called the emergency vet about it last night and they told me that it wasn't an emergency and that it could be one of two things - either she was just sore from the op and it hurt for her to go to the loo or she could have a slight infection. They said that I should keep an eye on her and if it is not better by tonight - should take her back. Does this sound right?
Secondly - they suggested that is I wanted to give her something for the pain, I could give her disprin (aspirin) > they said to give her a sixteenth of a tablet. I said that aspirin was poisonous for cats though - she said that it was only bad when you gave them lots.... Needless to say - I didn't give her any disprin. Any thoughts on this?
