Things to note after neutering male cats:

1. Prepare a quiet, warm (cool in summer) and dry environment for the cat. It is best to have someone accompany you within two days after the operation, so that if any abnormality is found in the cat, you can send it to the doctor in time.

2. Prepare a cat litter that is large enough for the cat to lie flat on. Be careful to place the cat litter on the floor to prevent the cat from opening the wound when it jumps high.

3. In the cat resting area, you should use soft lights or turn off the lights directly. Anesthetized cats may be sensitive to light.

4. Do not feed or water the cat immediately after surgery. Wait 4 to 8 hours before feeding the appropriate amount of water and food. The feeding amount is one-quarter of the usual amount. The owner can prepare some soft food or liquid food to replenish the cat's physical strength, such as nutritional paste, fish soup, canned food, etc.

5. Prepare some tofu cat litter or paper cat litter for the cat to avoid using dusty bentonite sand, which may cause wounds to become infected due to the entry of dust.

6. Cats are prohibited from going out for at least three weeks after surgery to prevent wound infection caused by contact with external bacteria. It is also best not to take a shower for a month, as wounds that have not fully healed may become infected when exposed to water.

7. Always pay attention to the cat’s wound healing. Generally, scabs will appear on the wound within one week after surgery. Basically healed after two to three weeks. If you find abnormal bleeding, redness or swelling in the wound, you should inform your doctor promptly.

8. Wear an Elizabethan ring on the cat promptly to prevent inflammation after licking the wound. Wait until the wound is completely healed before removing it.

9. Follow the doctor’s advice to give your cat painkillers, anti-inflammatory drugs, etc. after returning home. Never use the medicine casually yourself.
