All I'm saying is even tho' most spay & neuters do not require a bandage and one was applied in this case...it is more than likely a reaction to the sticky adhesive on the back of the tape.

If you google images of allergic reactions to adhesive bandages...you'll see what I'm talking of.

This happens to humans all the time and I know this from personal experience...-

I seriously think this might be the case, most probably Sugar is allergic to the adhesive tape. I will keep this in note, and will refer this to future vet. Thank you very much for giving me this idea, I wouldn't have thought of it.
By anyway, I think the vet/vet tech should have at least use some lotion/alcohol/anything to help removing the adhesive tape, I don't know..I'm not a doctor, I don't know if it's Ok to remove adhesive tape using lotion on sensitive skin
