My cat was spayed 3 days ago. I’ve been checking her incision daily, but when I checked it this evening, it looked different to me. There is no discharge that I can see coming from the incision site. However it just looks like it’s opening in one small area. I’m taking her to the vet first thing in the morning to have it checked, but I just wanted some peace of mind - if any - to get me through the night. Pictures attached. Thank you for any advice you’re able to give me!

Looks good to me, too.
The incision site looks very clean.

Are you worried about that little circular opening on the left, of the photo.
It may have scabbed over...and the scab fell off.
Or one of the internal stitches are being absorbed...and sometimes make their way towards the skin layer.
It will probably scab again...but it is really good that you are keeping a watchful eye on it.

Update us, how things go tomorrow...and perhaps you can send a photo to your Vet beforehand.
Post a photo of your cat, from the front, if you want, too. We love photos, here.
