I am looking for recommendations for post operative care... my cat had colon surgery to remove a blockage. How long should she be on antibiotics to prevent infection?

Did your vet not give you this information? He/she should have so I would call them up and ask them this question.

Even if you weren't given the information, typically, the full course of antibiotics is everything they've given you.
Please, call your vet to clarify.
