I took my female cat in to be spayed yesterday - she was back that evening and running around the house already, and being very affectionate, eating etc - shes recovered well.
But has the surgery been done appropriately? She has an incision scar of under 1 inch long, on her left side rather than along her belly. Does this indicate a less complete spay? She was still periodly nursing her babies (they are shortly to be 12 weeks old) so did this influence the way the surgery was done?
Anyone have any experience on this? I hear its better for both the uterus and ovaries to be removed, but this doesn't look like the case with my cat?
It was performed at a local vet surgery, not a low cost clinic..
thanks!
