What will I need to do for my cat when I bring him home from being neutered? My vet usually keeps pets overnight but I told her I was uncomfortable leaving him overnight when he would only be checked on once in the evening and then left alone all night so she's allowing me to pick him up at 4pm today as long as there are no complications. I was told by the receptionist this morning not to give my cat any food until the next morning, that he could have small amounts of water, and that regular cat littler is fine. I've read conflicting things online; I read that food is okay in small amounts as long as he's not throwing up and that cats are supposed to use shredded newspaper or newspaper pellet litter (like yesterday's news). So should I follow the instructions I was given by the vet's office or should I give him newspaper based litter? I also worry about fasting him for 34 hours (which is what it will be if I wait till tomorrow morning to feed him). What is your aftercare advice for neutering. This is my first time having a cat of either gender fixed so I've never been through his before. What all do I need to do for him when he comes home and how long do I provide the aftercare for?
