Watch for any signs of excessive drowsiness in your pet. It is normal for cats to exhibit drowsiness or increased thirst for about 24 to 48 hours following general anesthesia for the operation. If the cat is extremely sedentary or demonstrates lethargy beyond this time frame, contact your veterinarian.

Supervise the cat, particularly among other family pets. In order for the cat to heal properly, it must be prevented from excessive activity, including running, jumping and climbing. Providing a comfortable environment for the cat to heal, including a bed with easy access to a litter box, food and water is necessary to supporting a recently spayed feline.

Frequently inspect the surgical site. Immediately alert your veterinarian if the incision is red, bleeding or shows signs of damage. The cat must be prevented from licking or scratching the site of the surgery, which is usually achieved with an Elizabethan collar or surgical cone specifically designed for cats that have recently undergone surgery.
