Our 1 year old kitty had surgery the day before yesterday to remove a bell and a rubber band from his intestines. He got through the surgery fine, and he's on lots of pain meds and antibiotics, but I'm concerned about how his stitches look. His incision is about 3 inches long. The sutures look like they were done in a hurry or something though. The area around them is also pretty red. When he's standing up, or lying on his side one end of the incision looks like its sutured too tight. They look like they are pulled in farther towards his body and like they might be causing him pain. Someone told me that if it heals that way it could hurt him for the rest of his life. I'm definitely no expert on this, so I wanted to get other peoples' opinion. Should I bring him back to the vet? I put a couple of pics of him up. Take a look and let me know?
