    Hard scar tissue like lump after spay surgery

    I wasn’t warned about this however did read about it looking online to see if I could find an answer. Could you feel the fluid under the skin? Because this feels so hard to me that’s why I thought it was scar tissue like she was sewn up too tightly…

    Hard scar tissue like lump after spay surgery

    So my cat got spayed about a month ago. I had to take her back to the vet a day after the surgery because when she got home she was acting crazy and it seemed swollen and red. She got anti inflammatory and antibiotics. Well I had to take them for their booster shot a few days ago, and wanted to...

    My girls were spayed 7 days ago. Are they safe from their donut collars?

    They seem fine!! Other then the initial full body lick down they don’t seem to be licking it. My one nibbled at it a tad but I see her picking at the scab. They had internal stitches with glue. I’m hoping I can keep them off of them because they seemed miserable with them on. I know the vet said...

    Maloxicam doses AFTER spay

    I technically didn’t find an alternative, it was just the first dose had completely taken away the swelling and I could tell she was no longer in pain so I didn’t give her the second dose.

    Maloxicam doses AFTER spay

    Yes they were given I. 2 separate syringes with 0.3 mL directions say “give one syringe orally every 48 hours until gone for pain and inflammation even when pet does not exhibit pain” but I only gave her one dose the vet actually told me to use my judgment about the second dose and only give it...

    Maloxicam doses AFTER spay

    Also, instead of starting a NEW thread, im just gonna ask another question and hope it gets seen!! Is it normal for the cats to act “differently “ towards each other after the surgery? Bella is fine, but Gucci seems like she wants nothing to do with Bella at times ( although her tail is still...

    Maloxicam doses AFTER spay

    Hi! Thank you for responding!! I am located in Michigan (USA). And yes after doing research I do see the difference between “pain meds” (buprenorphine) and an anti inflammatory. The directions did say 48 hrs between doses, and I gave her the first dose Friday evening. So far today, the swelling...

    Maloxicam doses AFTER spay

    She’s doing much better now. So I think I’m gonna hold the 2nd dose. But if for some reason she does, I will keep it in mind! Thank you!

    Maloxicam doses AFTER spay

    So far she seems a lot better and the swelling has gone down a lot. I think I will take your advice and not give it to her. Thanks for the reply 🥰

    Maloxicam doses AFTER spay

    I’m sorry I ment that the directions were 48 hours in between doses not 24. I have her her first dose yesterday.

    Maloxicam doses AFTER spay

    I’m a first time cat momma. I got Gucci when she was a kitten, and Bella when she was about 1 1/2 years old. The prices around here for spay were CRAZY for my budget (single woman) so I signed up for a low cost spay for both of them. Well they recently got it done (Guccis almost 2 and Bella’s...
