Geting cat fixed....

The 11th I have a app. to get my cat fixed, shots, check up and nails trimmed. What should I expect him to be like when he gets home? Hes only spent 2 separate nights away from either me or my boyfriend and we've had him since may. Hes a really friendly cat for the most part even to strangers an dI have spoiled him SO much, from day one that we have had him, he was 7 weeks old when we go him so yea. My aunt said her cat wouldnt have anything to do with her for a few days after. does it just depend on the cat or what. He gogint to be gone for 2 days, i take him in on the 10 that afternoon, hes getting fixed ont eh 11th and i can pick him back up on teh 12th.

One went from loving to hostile

One became a big fat fur ball

One was still very loving

Or submissive

it all depends on the cats personality

If he is your only cat then he won't become hostile(They act that way towards other males)

I'm sure he wont change at all

Opps I deleted the top of my post

My friend has many cats and that how they were after they were fixed.

yea hes are only cat and he is already a big fat furball, so hopfully he'll stay that way

My friend told me that they really don't change but for awhile her one cat wanted nothing to do with her. Like I said she has a lot of cats and he is the one who became most aggressive. He used to be very loving but changed completely but All of her other cats that were fixed didn't change

Poor cat

He will most likely be a bit disoriented from the anesthesia for a day or so, but once he fully wakes up he'll be roaring around like normal. Most are back to a fairly normal routine within a couple days. Female cats take a bit longer because the surgery is more extensive, but males handle it very well.

Depends on the kitty. One kitty I had when I was a kid pooped on my mom's pillow after she took him to get fixed

that is hilariouse!!!!

My mom just got her two male kittens neutered. They are about six months old. She said they haven't had any change in behavior, they are still tearing her house apart, lol. They are very young, though, it may depend on the age of the cat.

honestly, the only effect i've noticed with any of my cats is that some of them got even more lovable. for the first couple days, they are usually a little groggy/sleepy from the surgery and the anethesia used. one of my could barely walk the first day he was so out of it.

but they get over it. and all of mine have gone back to their normal selves: if they started playful, they stil were, if they started out being loners, they were still loners. like i said, a couple actually ended up being more friendly after ward, and a couple became a little more lazy, but they were definitely the same cat [after the anethesia/etc wore off]

Both of mine came home and played as if nothing had happened. I referred my bf to my vet when it came time for him to have his new kitten fixed. He, too, came home and played hard. It depends on the vet. Their personalities basically stay the same, at least that has been my experience.

Just make sure the cat has somewhere to lay and not move so much. Like the water, food and litter box is near. Well from my experience, which was over 10 years ago, my cat was a zombie.

Mine came home and tore up the place. My vet says when they neuter an animal, they never feel pain. Mine didn't seem to and neither did my bf's cat. He said he has never had a cat play and run when they get home from being neutered, but Buddy sure did! My bf is totally sold on my vet! We didn't even have to give them any pain meds.

hopfully he will stay the same, he bites abit now som maybe that will stop and dont know if he get much more lovable. he not litte but hes young hes 10 1/2 months and giant. im sure he'll milk the attention an dbe all ohhh. once he got his paw stepped on and i scooped him up up and was rubbing it and him so for a few hours after that everytime hed see me looking at him while he was playing hed pick the paw up and hobble alittle but when he didnt notice iwas watching he was playin gon it fine. yea hes spoiled

Declawing is actually quite major and painful surgery for a cat and many cats even die from the trauma of that surgery or never get over it. It is like amputating the first joints of your fingers, and many think it is quite inhumane and won't do it.

I would highly recommend that no one declaw their cats, and if they don't want the damage a cat might potentially do from clawing something now and again, don't get a cat.

Neutering is quite simple and relatively painless and quick recovery.

Agree. I think it's very cruel to declaw a cat. If they find themselves in some sort of danger, they can't claw in defense or climb a tree or fence to get away

No no hes not getting declawed they are just going to trim them abit so they wont be so sharp. he likes to climb to much for that an o wont do that to him i don thtink its right. they just need to be toned down a bit because they are really sharp and big

Most vets will do same-day for male cats. I'm surprised that there is going to be a 2-day stay for him. I took mine in about 8am and picked him up about 5pm. He was groggy and sleepy that evening, but by the next day, he was wanting to eat and was fine.
