My cat just got spayed on Friday (July 9th) and today was the first day I was not at home to monitor her. I just want to make sure her incision is heeling well because I have caught her licking it a few times.
it doesn’t appear to be swollen, open, but it is puckered a little and it looks like they use surgical glue and sealed it over the incision site and that’s cracking off.
I am thinking I should get her a cone or something just in case, better to be safe than sorry.

Definitely try getting her a cone. Its important that she leaves that area alone while it heals.

Or you might try using a baby onesy on her. Many people use that instead of a cone.

We actually made her a little 'collar' out of a stuffed sock that can stretch enough to be comfortable and fit around her neck.
Her incision looks much better today!
