I agreed to care for a pregnant female following her spay surgery, but I have never done this before and don't know what to do or expect. She'll be under my observation and care for three days. Is there anything in particular I should watch for? If I put her in a dog crate when she's lucid and ready to eat, should I place a small litter box in the crate with her or use pee pads? How do you change the pads and what if the cat manages to get feces on her incision? How do I even check the incision? How will I know if she's recovering well (not sure if there could be complications since she's pregnant)? How do I get her back into the trap when it's time to release her?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated! I have welding gloves, btw, so she won't be able to get my hands or arms. There's also a divider with the dog crate, though I'm not sure how to use it!
