HI. I am so sorry to write again and understand if it's excessive so absolutely understand if ignored. I am the one in South America. The questions are at the end and numbered....- I don't know what context is helpful- but this is all irrelevant. Due to the challenges, stress, moral dilemmas, and interactions with the kitten in the flat above ours, with presumed FIP, I rented a house Monday morning, for a month. She is no longer suffering.
As I struggle with the local culture, my local bestie has been taking my kitten to our vet. He took her on Monday with hopes of learning anything re: upstairs kitten's entire situation, blood work, rapids FeLV/FIV tests to learn if any tests were needed for mine + when can she be spayed. I did not enjoy her first heat, which came earlier that expected.
No bloodwork was deemed needed. V ita Schnitzel was spayed yesterday. I had focused on the Tuesday move and did minimal googling re: setting up a room/what to expect- in pics.
Yesterday, she was dropped off at 10am yesterday and picked up at 4pm.What happened was not within what I googled and I would be so grateful for any advice. I had hoped for instructions. My friend did not have any instructions, but told me she was given a pill (unnamed).
At 4:15 pm, my friend walked in with what looked like several crocodiles and sharks wrestling inside the softish/hard floored cat carrier. It was bonkers and not what I imagined.
The thrashing continued for over an hour and was difficult to manage. My friend was told to let her out of the carrier. I did not feel it was wise but obliged. In the pic of the room set up, she fell from the mattress on the floor to the floor and also climbed up the bed. She peed in the box and drank/ate a bit last night- yay.
Due to her mobility potential to mess up the surgrey, to me, . I opted for back in the carrier- she thrashed about for a few more hours- Since then she has insisted on sleeping on me and is no longer bonkers but makes weird sounds if I move an inch.
I have not checked for bleeding and unclear if that would require a peek under the bandage type onesie. She had thrashed her cone off a few times, but we secured it. My vet left a message to express to stay in the bag while thrashing- to avoid her harming herself.
QUESTIONS- if you are familiar with this post-spay behavior, and there is no blood, but due to falls/jumpin'sh movements-
1. do you recommend any check ups for post-spay thrashing and/or falls or is it a 'if no blood, all good' type thing?
2. My dog's incontinence (clear/odorless) is hard to predict. She walked on it / sat on it. It would be unrealistic to separate them without both being upset- any chance for thoughts on that?
3. I understand, clearly, that exercise/jumping should be limited/controlled for 14ish days. I have an active cat who does not like to be alone in a room. Other than time in cat carrier thingy (soft, and she often opts to go in), do you have actual doable suggestions for limiting those actions beyond 'limit them'?
Thanks so so so much if time for any of this!
