We brought home our rescue cat on Wednesday. They spayed her in the shelter on Tuesday and she has had one of her vaccinations.
She was quite lively on Wednesday but since then has been extremely lethargic and is only eating very small amounts - about half a small bowl in the last 24 hours. Her incision doesn’t seem red or swollen (although has a slight lump) but she flinches a little if you touch an area around 1 inch from it. One eye is a bit weepy but not excessively so. She’s happy to be stroked but doesn’t want to be picked up, and just lies in her cat bed or hidden behind the couch for hours on end.
As she’s so new I don’t know how much of this is her personality, or if it needs a vet review. I thought she might have been just wrecked yesterday after all the attention but today I’m not so sure. Should I contact the shelter and ask? Unfortunately it’s a holiday here (ROI) which complicates things but I’m not sure if I should push it or just wait and see.
