DCat (5 months) was neutered on Monday. Recovered well and seemed pretty normal on Tuesday and Wednesday.
Yesterday we noticed he hadn't eaten as much as usual, and seemed quite quiet. Same again today. Probably only eaten one third to one half of what he normally would. Has been playing but not as much as usual. He just seems flat.
I'm just back from the vets following his post-op check. I explained the above an the vet nurse took his temp (on the high side of normal, but normal) checked his wound (slightly swollen but nothing significant) and looked at his gums) normal. She went out to have a quick word with the vet, who apparently said some cats just take a little bit longer to bounce back and to keep an eye on him over the weekend. I've just realised she didn't ask anything about if he was using his litter tray as normal, or if he was drinking normally (I think he is but not certain).
I don't know. I just feel really uneasy. He just doesn't seem right in himself and I'm not reassured by the advice just to see if he gets worse?! The think is, he did seem better on day 2 and 3, but now seems worse on day 4 and 5.
What do you think? Should I take him back and ask to see the vet? I feel sick to my stomach to be honest.
