Getting Uni spayed was the *best* decision I ever made for her. I feel like a responsible pet owner.

Now for the OP, I feel like it was more that a less than adequate vet and staff. They should have told you to fast her. They should have explained to you more thoroughly. Stitches are usually kept in up to 14 days, not one week. The vet should have used ISO for anesthesia, and should have recommended pre-op bloodwork. Have you had much experience with this vet? Was it a low cost spay/neuter clinic? I waited until Uni was almost 4 until I got her spayed bc I did not find a vet I loved until then. How old is Maddy btw?
