I got my cat spayed 3 weeks ago and she ended up with a large seroma. Instead of the usual 2 weeks, the vet advised us to keep her isolated in a small room for 3 weeks. I’ve kept her in the laundry room for nearly 3 weeks and she was doing just fine. No trying to jump on the washer and dryer or running around or anything. Except today. She ended up jumping on the washer and then climbed onto the shelf above it. Our washer and dryer are elevated on drawers so they’re extra high. Her seroma is almost gone now but I’m terrified that because of that huge jump, it’s going to get bigger again and then we’ll have to start the whole isolation thing all over again. I’m physically exhausted because I haven’t slept much for the past 3 weeks. I’ve been sleeping on the floor in the laundry room with her.
I’ve relocated her to my room and there are still furniture that she can jump on like my bed, the chair, the desk, the windowsill, my bed frame, but I thought that those would all be safer options than her jumping on the extra high washer and dryer. I’m going to frequently monitor her spay site for any swelling but I’m at my wits end. Am I doing the right thing by relocating her to my room? I’m just so worried that a large seroma will form again. There’s no way I can do this for another few weeks.
