How to care for Scottish Fold cats after sterilization

Care methods for Scottish Fold cats after sterilization:
1. Care for male cats after sterilization: If your cat is a male cat, you don’t have to worry at all. Just pay attention to whether the doctor gave him eye drops or eye ointments during the operation. This is intended to prevent cats under anesthesia from having dry eyes due to their inability to close their eyes. Everything will return to normal within a few hours after surgery.
2. Key points of care for female cats after sterilization: If it is a female cat, you may have more worries. First of all, the doctor must have rich clinical experience, and the incision should be controlled within 3 stitches. If the incision is too long, the cat will suffer for several more days. Under normal circumstances, the time on the operating table should not exceed 20 minutes excluding preparation time, which shows that the doctor is skilled enough. It is even more necessary for the female cat to use enough eye ointment. She will still be under anesthesia for a few hours after the operation, and her eyes will keep staring. It must be laid flat (put it in a flat-bottomed basket to take home) after surgery, otherwise it will be very harmful to the wound. It should be admitted that the sterilization operation of female cats makes the cats suffer more, because after all, the cat’s body is disemboweled. But don’t underestimate the cat’s recovery ability. Usually, 50 hours after surgery, the cat can eat and go to the toilet normally, and can even bite and play with its owner.
Things to note after sterilizing Scottish Fold cats:
1. The incision has not fully healed, so watch and don’t let the cat jump around to prevent the wound from bursting.
2. After sterilization, it is necessary to supplement nutrition, eat less meat, and try to allow the female cat to adapt to the environment as quickly as possible.
3. The sutures can be removed in 7 days, not necessarily in the hospital where the sterilization was performed, but in a nearby hospital.
