Just a fixing, but she's taking time to sleep it off. It must hurt, poor thing, and the bandage is not comfortable.
The vet I first took her to said I should wait until the first heat before fixing her, which apparently is completely wrong. The other vet (where I got Oli from) says they fix all the kittens as soon as possible. Seems like every clinic has its own methods...
In any case, she is done, and now I have three sexless cats in the house.
Both vets I work for (and pretty much every one I've been to) has always said to fix females before their first heat (around 6 months). It gets more difficult to operate when stuff gets swollen inside the body.
