1. Stay in the hospital for observation for a period of time after the operation, and then leave after the cat is fully awake to avoid an emergency.

2. When cats are not fully awake from anesthesia, they may have symptoms such as nausea, vomiting and loss of appetite. It is generally recommended to provide food and water after 6-8 hours. Some cats may also have emotional problems, and attacks or abnormal behaviors are common, such as biting their teeth and shaking their heads. The shovel officer should pay attention, but don't worry too much. These behaviors will gradually disappear as the anesthetic fades.

3. Before taking out stitches, be sure to put on elizabeth circle or surgical gown. If absorbable sutures are used in the operation, you should not take off your surgical gown before the wound heals normally, otherwise the cat will lick the wound, which will easily cause inflammation and even infection.

4. Proper exercise is helpful to the recovery of the wound, but don't exercise violently to avoid the wound cracking.

About taking medicine, try to follow the doctor's advice and don't take medicine by yourself.

6. Even if the wound has healed or the stitches have been removed, try to avoid the wound from getting wet and take a bath at least 20 to 30 days later.

Dietary feeding instructions

After sterilization, cats are weak and their appetite will decrease. It is necessary to supplement nutrition in time, recuperate the body and speed up the recovery of wounds.

1. Control the feeding amount

Feed as little as possible at the first meal after operation to avoid indigestion. Surgical anesthesia has an effect on the stomach, so don't feed snacks and the like.

Step 2 don't change food

In the recovery period after operation, it is best not to change food, but to feed the same food as before, so as to avoid stress reaction and increase the intestinal burden of cats;

3. Nutritional cream supplements energy

If the cat has poor appetite during the period, try not to force it, put the food basin near the cat's nest, and consider feeding nutritional cream to replenish energy in time.

Paired with goat milk powder

After operation, cats can feed digested goat milk powder to increase water consumption.

5. nutritious canned food or exquisite packaging

In the recovery period after operation, dry and wet food can be fed to the diet, canned food and delicious bags can increase the appetite of cats and adults, and then dry food can be fed.

Daily nursing guidance

1. Selection of cat litter

Try to choose cat litter with less dust to avoid dust infecting exposed wounds.

2. Take action to avoid becoming an "inflatable cat"

Sterilization will change the hormone secretion in the body, which may lead to a decrease in the activity of cats and adults, a reduction in the burden of energy metabolism and overeating, and an increase in the probability of getting fat. The shovel officer should properly stimulate the cat's movement, and can buy different types of toys to make the cat move and consume calories.

3. Pay attention to calcium supplementation

Estrogen can promote the absorption and utilization of calcium. Sterilized female cats are prone to calcium deficiency because of insufficient estrogen, so sterilized female cats, especially old cats, need calcium supplementation.

4. Love is more important than anything.

Whether your cat becomes indifferent or enthusiastic after sterilization, please give your owner more care and understanding. After all, it is a "knife"!
