It's not uncommon for cats to experience some side effects after being neutered, but persistent vomiting isn't typical and could indicate a problem.
- Monitor your cat's behavior and symptoms closely.
- Consult a vet if vomiting continues or worsens.
- Ensure your cat is staying hydrated and comfortable.
Vomiting in your cat post-surgery can be concerning, as recovery from neutering usually doesn't involve such symptoms. It’s important to monitor him for any additional signs of distress. If his vomiting persists or is coupled with other symptoms like lethargy or a lack of appetite, it would be wise to consult with your veterinarian.
If this is an emergency, please seek immediate veterinary care.
