Mittens...tattooed, microchipped & spayed. Pic#1
Mittens donning her Elizabethan collar and showcasing her tattoo after her recent spaying. Oh my she is growing up too fast, I already miss my little miss Mittens!
She is finally getting used to the collar after four days. I give her some relief and remove it several times a day during feedings and shortly afterwards for grooming under very careful observation.
"When a female kitten is spayed, a small incision is made in her abdomen and her reproductive organs are removed. The incision is then closed with surgical glue or stitches. As the kitten grows, the scar becomes almost invisible as it stretches and thins. A veterinarian looking at an adult female cat cannot always tell if the tiny scar he sees on the cat's belly is a belly button, well-healed wound or the result of surgery for something other than spay. Before universal methods to indicate spaying has been done, vets had to anesthetize cats and open them up to see if they were intact. Ultrasounds and X-rays are not effective in determining if a cat has been spayed. The universal methods include ear-tipping, tattooing and microchipping. "(Sourcehttps://pets.thenest.com)
