Taking my cat back to the vet for the third time after getting her spayed bc her swag is too different and she keeps finding new ways to evade their attempts at keeping her incision closed and healing
#after the spay she got my vets standard internal dissolvable stitches + external glue#but she immediately ripped the glue open so i had to take her back again the same day and she got staples + the cone of shame#then she developed a bump under her incision so i had to take her back again for more shots + pills#and now im having to take her back AGAIN bc shes ripped her incision open AROUND her staples#and if i understand correctly theyre going to have to do full on external (non-dissolvable?) sutures#im so worried about her and it makes me so sad to see her going through all this and i feel so bad having to keep taking her back#but at the same time. honey. baby. astrid. could you PLEASE stop youre making this harder for both of us 😭#im doing everything i can to stop her from straining herself and shes still managing it#we kept her confined to our bedroom secluded from the other cats for an extra day past what the vet even recommended#for the first two days i was with her in that room 24/7. and ive been doing my best to try to keep her calm#shes been wearing her cone nonstop since they gave it to us on the first day#she only gets brief cone breaks for a few minutes a couple times a day for eating wet food + grooming#and i sit with her the whole time and watch her like a hawk to make sure she doesnt touch her incisions#(shes actually been very good about this)#ive been trying so hard to do everything right but unfortunately shes just built different 😞#rambling#uhh#medical talk#vet talk#request to tag?
