Good evening all.
My little girl Buggle is going to have her op on 28 November. She will be 5 months old. At her last vet appointment a few weeks ago she weighed 1.2kg (but I am sure the little greedy guts has piled some on since then).
I wanted your opinions on what I should do to prepare her for the op, and what I can expect afterwards. She is a lively little lady and always jumping around the place, up on the bed, tables etc. I know I will need to prevent her from doing this after the spay, but how?
She has a partner, Pancake, a neutered one year old buck. They are currently separated until I can rebond after she has been spayed. However they do still have supervised playtime every day. There were a couple of fights when the hormones first hit but now just the odd bit of humping (her humping him) but no aggression thankfully. Should I let them have some time together immediately after the op or not? Would it be better to keep her totally separate till she is back to her full strength. I'm worried one or both of them will be upset and miss each other. Even though the hormones caused some probs initially, they really do love eachother.
Hope that all makes sense. Your experience and opinions would be most appreciated
