What are signs of complications that I should be looking for after a cat emergency? - Animal Hospital of Statesville
If your cat doesn't resume eating and drinking within a specified time, especially after trauma, this could indicate that we're not managing their pain well or they're not feeling as good as we would like. If your pet had stitches, monitor the incision site. If they were exposed to a toxin, make sure the vomiting is controlled and that they are eating and drinking well. Your veterinarian should provide a timeline of what to expect and when to return for a re-examination. Even if your pet seems better, it's important to keep any scheduled follow-up exams.
