Hello! Athena got spayed on Monday and the incision looks really good, no bleeding and just a little swelling around that comes and goes but she has a lump at the bottom. I spoke to my mother about it and she said it's normal for cats that are active after being spayed which.... she is. She spends at least 2-3 hours playing with her ball aggressively but I'm a little concerned. Athena doesn't seem to be in pain (she did have a hard time with her stool today but I figured that was because it was too much of a strain on the incision to push?) but aside from that, she's playing and cuddling like normal. She is eating and drinking water, but not a lot (I was told by the vet this is normal for the first few days so I wrote it off as that...) so... i'm not sure. Anybody else have this happen? If so what did you do? What was it?
She's been wearing her ecollar since Tuesday and only gets it removed for feedings and to go into the litter box (She didn't have it the first day because she could pull it off and i had to go out and get her a collar to loop through), so she's only managed to get a few licks in on the site since then. I will be calling the vet tomorrow morning if it seems like it's gotten worse or is giving her any discomfort.
