Sugartoes was spayed Thursday. I got her home Friday night. Now it is Sunday, and she has not had a bowel movement yet. How long is too long?
She also has very little appetite. I'm told she was not fed Wednesday night. But after the surgery, she did eat a little dry food. Well, she used to love canned food, and would slurp up the gravy. She has only eaten a few bites of food Saturday, and nothing yet today. I even added some tuna, and she just sniffed. Tonight I will try Whiskas.
She is not dehydrated. She moves around, sleeping on the windowsill, then under a dresser-both normal spots for her to nap. She walks slowly, but I expect that. The incision looks like it is healing well.
Am I just overreacting? How long do you wait after surgery for a "poo" before you have a vet check?
