After neutering the male cat, the female started vomiting; both fasted 10h before surgery. Female ate after, next day vomited kibble, then yellow, then pink, now white foam; 3-4 days, weak, drinks but won’t eat. Male also vomits undigested kibble but is fine.
Both cats vomiting may be from bad food or the male catching infection at the clinic and spreading it. Withhold food 12h and give anti-emetics; see a vet if no relief.
What happens if a Scottish Fold cat is spayed or neutered?
Neutering a Scottish Fold stops reproduction and prevents passing on its genetic defects, which is beneficial. Pre-op check fitness, fast 6-8 hours, and keep the wound clean post-op.
My 7-year-old neutered male cat has had tartar for a long time, has been drooling on and off for three days with some urine leakage; calicivirus and herpes tests were negative. Appetite and stools are normal.
Drooling can come from excitement or from oral disease such as periodontitis, especially with long-term tartar. Urine leakage suggests a urinary issue like infection, cystitis, or stones. A vet visit is advised to confirm the cause.
My Cat’s Pre-Neuter Check Showed Low Globulin; Does It Need the 441 Injection, and Can Surgery Still Proceed?
The results argue against neutering now, with a low albumin-globulin ratio, inflammation, gut fluid, and enlarged lymph nodes suggesting some FIP risk. Whether to use GS-441524 depends on symptoms and further coronavirus PCR and Rivalta tests; if no fever, big belly, or appetite loss, follow the vet's probiotics and lactoferrin and recheck in a week.
What Happens If a Cat Isn’t Spayed or Neutered?
Intact cats cycle into heat with night yowling, improper urination, roaming, and poor appetite, and show stronger territorial aggression and fighting. Frequent heats without surgery raise risks of uterine, mammary, or testicular cancers, shortening life.
My Unneutered Two-Year-Old Male Cat Suddenly Blocked, First Peed Much Blood Then Yellow-Brown Fluid, Now Can’t Urinate
A blocked cat needs a vet to find the cause; complete blockage requires immediate catheterization to avoid kidney failure or ruptured bladder, plus fluids, antibiotics, and hemostatics. If still urinating, follow vet advice with diuretics and water, and return if it recurs.
An adult male cat had FIP this year and recovered; off meds nearly two months; can he be neutered?
Neutering needs a healthy cat. If fully recovered with normal recheck, neuter is fine. During treatment or recovery, or if recheck is abnormal, do not. In recovery immunity is still low, and neutering then may worsen the condition or cause postoperative disease.
What happens if a male cat is neutered?
Neutering prevents heat-related behaviors such as yowling, spraying, roaming, and fighting, and lowers the risk of reproductive cancers, potentially extending lifespan. However, it lowers metabolism, causing weight gain, and carries surgical risks.
What should I pay attention to for a male cat’s neutering?
There are precautions before and after neutering. Before surgery, ensure the cat is healthy — treat any illness first — and fast per the vet's advice to lower risk. After surgery, give a quiet, clean rest area, avoid overexertion that irritates the wound, and clean and disinfect the wound daily to prevent infection.
My male cat started vomiting on the third day after neutering—it brings up undigested kibble. What’s wrong?
Vomiting on day 3 after neutering is abnormal; within 24h it's anesthesia affecting gut motility causing reflux. Day-3 vomiting may be hairballs, throat injury, indigestion, or stress. If once or twice with yellow fluid/undigested food, try probiotics and anti-inflammatory; if hairball, give hairball paste; if frequent, see a vet.
