Pepper was spayed yesterday and the vet sent home some pain medication for her. She's supposed to get 1/2 a dropper 2 times a day. She was given her morning dose at the vet today before I picked her up.
Should I give her a second dose? She doesn't appear to be in any pain. She is running, jumping, climbing and playing as normal. I don't really believe in medicating just because, ya know? How would I tell if she was in pain?
I know she shouldn't really be doing all of those things but it is SOOO HARD to stop a 5 1/2 month old kitten from playing. Right now she is fast asleep on DH's chest.
She is doing so well, she hasn't touched the incision site and it doesn't appear to bother her in the slightest! The vet did an awesome job, I don't think they used thread to close the wound, you can't even see anything but what appears to be a scar!
I'm rambling now, sorry!
