Haru’s Post Spay Surgery – Day 9

Haru’s wound is infected. There’s brownish blood seeping out since 2 days ago. Last night we put a plaster back on her wound and dressed her up in the post op suit but when I woke up this morning, she had removed everything again!

Today Cass and I made a quick dash to the vet clinic when Cass had half an hour of break in between classes. The vet cleaned her wound and prescribed her with another 5 days of antibiotics and anti-inflammation pills 😒

Haru now associates her carrier with vet visits and hates the carrier. She seems to understand whenever I say “get the carrier ready”, “put her in the carrier” or “catch her and put her in her cage”. Whenever she hears me saying these to the girls, she’ll dash under the far end of the sofa coz she knows that we can’t catch her if she’s at that spot 😹

Today I had to change my strategy in getting Haru into the carrier. Usually I would tell the girls to get ready the carrier an hour before a vet visit but this time, we did that last.

I told Cass to get dressed up, put her face mask on and while I pretended that nothing’s happening, picked Haru up to cuddle her. As Cass opened the carrier door, I nonchalantly put Haru into it. But she resisted with all her might. Alycia told me to put Haru’s butt in first and voila, it was done, but not without feisty defiance.

My manja baby.
Trying our best to keep Haru as comfortable as possible. She seems to know that her wound is infected and now associates the post-op suit with having to lie down and sleep more.
The suit makes it hard for her to move about. The size L suit is too big on her and she can wriggle out of it easily. I have to tie the suit with a band to tighten it. The size M suit is too tight on her her legs and she makes us all ROTFL whenever we see her walk in the suit.
Think wearing a super tight G-string and strutting around in it 😜
Luckily I ordered another suit from Shopee for Haru this week. The earlier one that I ordered had blood stains on it and needed to be washed. This strawberry suit is size M and a tad tight on her, especially at the thighs.

Hopefully Haru won’t be able to wriggle out of this strawberry suit tonight when all of us are in bed, to tear off the plaster on her wound. I’d put extra surgical tapes on top of the plaster to prevent her from tearing off the plaster.
