I had Cookie my cat spayed last Monday. I think there is something wrong, possibly an infection. She is still very swollen and tender where the stitches are and when I hold her and try to touch gently on her tummy, she starts clawing and biting at me. I think that after a week, it should be less painful for her and the swelling should have gone down by now. I am worried about my little baby! Please pray that she is ok and I will keep you updated. I am taking her in today, and I hope that I am just being paranoid. I hate that my baby is hurting.

Oh my! That is one determined calico you have! She hasn't really messed with her stitches. She has been cleaning her suture site and I have been cleaning it to. I can't wait to get to the vet and find out if she is ok!

I'm glad you are taking Cookie in again to the vet so they can check her out, because I would have thought that after a week (since the operation), she shouldn't really be that tender to touch. If she does have an infection, then it should be treated.
Let us know what happens mamasan.
