Our little (6months) Nori girl, has just been to the vet to get castrated. What a champ she was! She's now recovering from the surgery, giving her unlimiteds (and much deserved) amounts of cuddles.

On the picture she's still drugged and asleep, even though her eyes are open. She was given eye gel to not have her eyes dry out too.

We've put her cat tower down on the floor so she doesn't have to jump to get into it. And made extra sleeping spots on the floor with warm wooly blankets. Got treats of all kinds and water bowls place in different spots for easy reach.

How's peoples experiences been with this process (the aftermath)? We got some painkillers for her to take daily, for 6 days. Any tips on making cats swallow pills easily? Is there anything extra one could do for the cat?

Have a nice day, and don't forget to cuddle your cat a little extra 😻

Good for you! I just didn’t want you to go through the unnecessary medical bills and anxiety we did over our apparently uniquely stupid cat.
