Does this look like she has pulled a stitch? TW: blood
Hey there!
My cat Jinny was neutered last week, and she developed an abscess and had to be put under anesthesia again and opened back up to clean it. She will NOT let us put a cone or a cover-up on her, she will scratch, howl, and squirm so much that it does her more harm than good, and she is usually pretty good at not licking the area. We are keeping her separate from her kitten (he's 11 weeks and completely weaned) so that they cannot play and/or chase each other.
During a supervised visit, she started running and we immediately separated them and put them in separate rooms. I noticed she has a little bit of blood at the incision, and am wondering if you guys think she may have pulled a stitch?
We have her post-surgery check-up tomorrow at the vet, so obviously they will check her out then. I'm just asking for advice in the meantime!
Thanks
