Cat had emergency spay but stitches look concerning
So my cat had an emergency spay because she went unspayed for a long time. This is not my fault as I did encourage my family to spay her but they didn’t listen and I am unemployed so therefore have no income.
She had an infected uterus.
What’s that green yellow stuff? Are her stitches open? I’ve already messaged my family about the issue but no response yet.
This is in the USA, have not contacted vet because I don’t know what vet she was taken to. The cat is 1 and a half years old I believe?
Update 1: We will be taking the cat back to the vet tomorrow, 8 AM, as that’s the earliest we can get there. She did not have a cone and I believe she licked herself open. I will update some time tomorrow.
Edit for some additional info: I am a disabled 19 year old with no source of income (yes I’m trying to apply for SSI but it’s a long and hard process; Im currently in court trying to overturn their decision to deny me.) I live with my parents. We struggle financially and so my family is quick and easy to dismiss things like this (though I’ve repeatedly told them that it could become more expensive the longer we wait to fix the issue.)
We did not take this cat in willingly. I live in SC and my state has weird laws about taking in strays, so we were unable to surrender her to someone who could better take care of her.
If it was up to me, I would take her in to the vet now and assume the debt myself but I cannot and I risk getting kicked out if I go behind my parents back like this. I am trying to talk to my mother who is more reasonable about this than my father but she is away from home. I’m doing what I can to try to help, please do not harass me in the comments or try to make me feel guilty about this.
Edit 2: PLEASE READ
this is NOT my cat. I live with the people who own this cat. I cannot stress that enough. I was looking for advice on if it was infected or not and clearly it is, thank you to the people who were able to help me figure that out. If you can’t keep your rude and unnecessary comments to yourself then don’t bother commenting at all! we didn’t choose to adopt this cat. this cat ran into our garage and, as i’ve stated in MULTIPLE comments, my states laws are weird about surrendering animals. If this was my house I would’ve gotten rid of the cat as soon as I could but this is NOT my house! If i surrender the cat now, i risk being kicked out by my family.
Edit 3: For all the people suggesting i let her outside or try to give her to the humane society: NO! I cannot! there are cameras all over my house because of my paranoid mom. I will be caught.
