Neutering a domestic cat should not be seen as an inhumane approach.
On the contrary, the operation allows you to avoid many health problems, you won’t have to stuff your walking cat with medications, and in general, your pet will behave more calmly.
In this case, the main attention should be paid to the pet’s well-being after the operation.
What you shouldn't feed your cat after surgery
1. After returning home, leave your cat alone until it recovers from the anesthesia.
She needs to rest and come to her senses. It is better to equip the bed on the floor, in a warm and secluded place where there are no drafts.
2. Even if your pet quickly comes to, you don’t need to give it a lot of food and water.
You can return to your normal diet no earlier than the next day.
3. The diet should contain foods rich in iron.
But you will have to exclude cereals, fatty meats, dairy products, and raw fish.
4. Be sure to follow your veterinarian's recommendations for caring for your pet and monitor your pet's behavior.
5. In addition to your diet, do not forget to monitor the condition of the suture.
Make sure it is dry and free of discharge.
It is also important to remember that after complete recovery, sterilized cats are at risk of developing diseases such as cystitis.
Due to non-compliance with the diet, obesity often develops, which is associated with diseases of the cardiovascular system, liver and problems with the musculoskeletal system.
It is best to consult a veterinarian regarding diet for a sterilized cat.
