I guess it could be normal that they said no food but here after a surgery we normally do a half meal that night if they are interested.

Jesse was spayed yesterday (Tuesday). She refused her puppy food last night so I fed her a little bit of mashed potatoes. She was extremely quiet all evening.
She is doing great today! She was her old self when she woke up this morning! I gave her the 1/2 of a pain pill that the vet prescribed & left her with my daughter today.
She was 5 months old yesterday & she weighs 5 lbs.

I'm glad she's back home with you! When Chelsea was spayed the dr told me to feed her a small meal that evening if she was interested, and to go back to her normal feeding the next morning. I'm sure she'll perk up soon!

Glad to read your baby is home with you. She will be sleepy for a while, it is good that you are offering water, I offered Jazzie a few dry kibbles as well and she ate as much as she wanted. The next day I could not believe my eyes, she was ready to run & play, of course I did not let her but it was amazing to see that she was feeling good, I don't even think she required pain meds.

I wish I had felt that great after my hyst.

This is what I was told to do with Missy as well. The vet said just not to give too much food because it may cause her to vomit from the anaesthetic.

Brandi was very groggy the first day I brought her home after her spayed but by the next day she was about 60% back to her self. The hard part was getting her to calm down because I didn't want her stitches to come loose. By the third day she was back to her old self. That was a month ago. Just make sure she doesn't get to excited, trying to run and jump when she is feeling better at least for a few days because of the stitches. Also I couldn't give Brandi a bath for at least 10 days. Lawd.....was she a little stinker.....couldn't wait to give her a bath

Well, we made it through the night. I gave her a little kayro lastnight and then I offered a little kibble and she ate it.

I went ahead and put her in the bed with me. I didnt want her to be a lone..I put a pee-pad on the bed with one of her blankets over it and she slept right next to me all night.

This morning she has drank lots of water and I gave her food with her antibiotics and she was def hungry.
The one thing she hasnt done is potty...shes had enough water to need to pee and has yet to potty....

Shes slow getting around, takes a step and then sits down. But she is coming around. Thanks everyone for your concerns and advice!
