Riley is home!

Bbrought Riley home about 6:30 this evening. She was spayed, had a dental with 1 tooth removed, and was microchipped.

They had 6 surgeries today, Riley was last; they were almost finished w/ her dental at 1:30 PM. Thus the late pick up. She is Sooooo sleepy, lol. But doing very well. She has Clavamox (antibiotic) and Rimadyl (anti inflammatory and pain relief to start tomorrow.

The sutures are inside, and are dis-solvable. She has a small dressing with bandage on the outside. NO COLLAR NECESSARY! My how things have changed since the last time I had a female spayed.

I brought up a crate for her (she has used crates in prior homes), put 2 nice beds in it. She wobbled her way in and is snoozing, perhaps for the night, lol.

I just tried offering her some canned food, she wants nothing to do with it. For now I'll let her be but tomorrow she is going to have to show some interest!

Aww, glad she's home, I am sure she will feel better tomorrow!

Aww, Riley! I hope you will rest this evening and feel much better tomorrow. You are in very good hands with your mom :D

And hi, Tasha! I am always happy to see pictures of the fluffs, no reason required!

Aww, poor girl. It gets better soon Riley, so just hang in there and let yourself be spoiled! :love:

I'm glad to hear that everything went well and that she's now home.:) Hopefully she'll heal up quickly and will want to eat tomorrow. I wonder if they spay cats differently now too.

Poor baby girl. Hope she gets to feeling better soon.

And Tasha is adorable, as always.

Awww - poor Riley. She's probably trying to figure out what the heck hit her. :eek: Glad all went well, and hopefully she'll be feeling MUCH better in a couple of days.

Hang in there Riley. You might try milking this situation for all you can get out of it. Extra treats just might be a start. Just chew where you didn't get that tooth pulled. :)

Riley slept soundly all night, got up HUNGRY lol. She ate almost half a cup of canned food, then a few pieces of hot dog with her pills. THEN she hopped up on the sofa. Dad says I should have expected that, she does that every morning after being up, having her breakfast treat, she waits there till I sit. Now she is happily on the recliner with me and in her usual place. I expect she will sleep more, especially once the meds kick in. Over all, doing well!

Good to hear Riley is doing well!:D

I'm hoping for a speedy and complete recovery. ;)

When Becca had her Spay, there was a small scar originally, but, after a couple weeks, it disappeared completely. The only way to tell now that she's altered, is to ask Sneakers. :D

Good job, Riley! Welcome home, honey! :love:

Glad you are doing well Riley! Sleep is good!;)

I'm so glad the spaying went well for Riley and I know you'll take great care of her. You're a good mom to your crew!! I have to get Sissy spayed in a month or so--sort of dread it for her (and me) but of course I'll have it done. Glad your new little girl is feeling better and eating. She is so lucky that you're her human mom.

Glad that Riley is home and everything is o.k.

Glad to hear Riley is feeling better. :)

Riley is doing fine, she feels GREAT so the challenge is to keep her calm and not jumping, ha haaa.

Kay, sometimes I think it is harder for us, as we worry in advance but they know nothing till it happens.
