Hello Sheryl, I know exactly how you are feeling I had my little Prada spayed january 8, she is my First EVER girl and I was worry sick about spaying her..she is 6.5 lbs. first I was told no food or water after 10 pm the night before surgery, then I took her in at 8 am to the vet's office. she had surgery that day about 11 am,since my son works there i was able to bring her home that evening about 6:00pm. she was still groggy and quite sleepy, so I very carefully put her onesie on and put her in her crib where she slept until about 10 pm, she got up and wanted to drink some water and i did offer her a bit of wet food and she ate a little. she went back to bed after a VERY LITTLE pee. the next morning she got up and wanted food and drank a LOT..
but I could see by the way she was walking that she was in pain, I gave her the pain med the vet gave me and the antibiotics she went back to sleep by that afternoon she was feeling better and eating almost normal and she pee and poop almost normal too.. by the third day I offer her some kibble and she ate it, and drank and was acting a little more like herself, I did change her onesie every night for 7 days and noticed that her sutures were not disolving, so i call the vet and I took her back and they remove what was left of them and they ask me to keep her in her play pen for about 3 or 4 more days.
by now she is back to her little self and she is playful and happy..
So best of luck and can't wait to hear that she is done and fine..
best of luck.
hugs,
