On May 23rd, according to reports from several domestic media outlets, a cat's dispirited look after being spayed has caught attention. From now on, its "meow life" is free from distractions, focusing solely on eating.
Experts remind that while spaying a cat may not be a major surgery, post-operative care is crucial for the cat's complete recovery.
Whether male or female, cats need to stay at the hospital for observation after the surgery until they are fully awake before going home.
Depending on each cat's constitution, the time it takes for them to wake up from anesthesia varies. Most cats may wake up in about an hour, while some may take longer.
During this period, when placing the cat, it should lie flat in the cage without being moved around to avoid compressing its trachea, which could hinder breathing.
It's important for cat owners to prepare a clean and comfortable recovery environment for the cats before the surgery. After the surgery, cats have lower immunity, so they need to be kept warm, and their living environment should be clean. If there are many bacteria present, it could easily lead to infections in the cat's wound.
Remember, avoid placing cat climbing frames or high objects around the cat's living area to prevent vigorous movements. Owners should also refrain from using teaser wands or toys to play with the cat, as it could cause the wound to reopen, hindering recovery.
