Please bear with me, I'm not a native speaker.
I foster cats. Currently, I have a sweet adult female cat who was diagnosed with pyometra and had a hysterectomy about 3 weeks ago. Her blood test results were pretty bad at the time of surgery, but a week after everything went back to normal.
Now her nipples and primordial sack became really saggy. It's almost as if she became really old (or lost a ton of fat) in a span of a week or two. When people pick her up they immediately notice and ask what is on her belly - it's her skin folds and saggy nipples! They are not red, I see no milk and I don't think they are the definition of 'enlarged nipples'. She was never fat; when she came to us she weighed 3.5kg and it seems like she's gaining weight. It's not noticeable when she's lying belly-up, only when she's standing.
Is that normal or is it a reason to panic?
