Yesterday my 4 month old female cat went in to be neutered, they told me she was pregnant, then told me she was a boy

Hello there! It sounds like you've had quite the whirlwind of information regarding your adorable kitten. This situation can certainly be confusing and a little surprising, so let's talk it through.



First, it's not uncommon for young kittens to be misidentified in terms of gender, especially when they’re very young. It takes a keen eye to distinguish male from female kittens, and slight mistakes can happen. Now, regarding the mention of pregnancy—it seems there might have been some initial confusion during the examination process that was quickly corrected.



If your kitten has undergone any procedures during their visit, it’s important to monitor for signs of discomfort, excessive lethargy, or changes in appetite, which can indicate a need for further care. Most post-neuter recovery involves keeping your kitten calm and limiting activity to allow time to heal.



However, if you find any swelling, discharge from the surgical site, or if she's not eating or drinking, these could signal complications, and you'll want to reach out to a vet as soon as possible.



Given the unusual experience, I’d recommend setting up a video consult with Dial A Vet. This can provide clarity and peace of mind as you continue to care for your lovely kitten. We're here to guide you every step of the way!
