Feeling so guilty this morning. Sunshine had her spay surgery last Thursday and was doing well until this morning when I noticed an odd swelling. Called the vet who wanted her in right away. Turns out she had torn through stitches and has to have yet another surgery. Feel like it is my fault because I haven't been vigilant about keeping the collar on her. Anyone else have a kitty that had to have spay repaired?

Yup. Mine left her stitches completely alone and then on the 3rd day decided she wanted them out. Of course, it happened at night while I wasn't watching. Back to the vet she went...more stitches....and a cone for 10 days. It happens.

I have been fortunate but this does happen, it's nothing rare.  She will be fine.  It wasn't your fault, just one of those things that happens.
