As for the onseie's when I had Cali spayed she wasn't use to wearig clothes but when I put the onsie on she was fine. I think it felt soft and protected her stitches. She should go back to her potty schedule pretty quickly. You may ask your vet for pain meds in case she needs them for a day or two. A lot of vets give them a shot for pain before they go home and it lasts for 24 hours. I think she will be ok to leave on Monday as long as she is leaving her stitches alone. Good luck and keep us posted

Good information.
Sandy was just spayed. My vet did not send home any pain meds.. and that was a mistake for Sandy. I ended up taking her into the emergency vet.. and he sent her home with 2 different ones.
The onsie's were perfect to put on Sandy. They did not allow her to lick her stitches. They were also very soft so she did not snag her stitches on anything, either. When I took her out to potty, I just unsnapped them and rolled them under so she would not soil them. That way, I did not have to stress her with taking them on and off all the time.
She did not really drink or eat much until the following day. It has been 6 days and you wouldn't know she had anything done. I still keep her from jumping onto or off from things.. so she doesn't injure herself.
Keeping you both in my thoughts and prayers.
