Hi everyone,
My little girl, who's about 6 months old, has just been spayed. She's a very active kitten and exactly what I feared is happening. She's just got home and is trying to run all over the place while wobbling! She's also trying to jump onto the big wardrobe or the beds, but I don't want to let her – she'll hurt herself! The problem is, she's bashing into walls and toppling over (she can't walk properly); obviously I'm trying to stop her and catch her, but she just won't sit still. The vet assured me she'd be sleepy and calm. He told me to leave her be, but I just can't: she's falling, running around, and yowling while rolling on the floor, and I'm terrified she's in pain.
How can I make sure she doesn't hurt herself?
Also, the vet recommended giving her just a tiny bit of food, which I've done, but she's begging for more (she hasn't eaten since 8pm last night). Should I give her more? What are the risks?
Thanks in advance for your replies! :-)
