After a week of recovery from neutering, it's understandable to be concerned about your cat's sudden vomiting. While occasional vomiting can happen, it's important to monitor his condition closely.
- Monitor your cat for any additional symptoms.
- Keep him hydrated and comfortable.
- If vomiting persists, consult a veterinarian.
Surgery can be a stressful event for a cat, and anesthesia may cause temporary digestive upset. However, persistent vomiting could indicate an adverse reaction to surgery or another underlying issue. It's important to ensure he's not showing signs of distress, lethargy, or continued vomiting.
Book a consultation with a licensed vet at Dial A Vet for just $49 AUD if you're unsure or symptoms are getting worse.
