Question

Had kitty spayed 5 days ago there is a lump about the size of a grape at the incision should I be concerned?

Answer 1

Could possibly have become infected, the cat may be picking at it. Phone the vets for advice they may give your cat antibiotics and a special collar to wear so that it cant reach the incision site and pick or over l**k it.

Answer 2

Yes, you should contact the vet who did the op.   There shouldn't be any more charges, I would say.

Answer 3

Time for a trip to the V-E-T.

Answer 4

YES! Take it to the vet NOW! Could be filled with fluid or puss, either way needs treatment!  

Answer 5

Call the vet who did the surgery and explain the situation.  You should be able to bring her in for a quick little look at the lump and the vet can determine what to do.

Answer 6

A lot of kitties, especially more hyper ones, develop that lump at the incision. It is usually nothing to worry about, it'll go away when the inflamation goes down. I worked at a vet, so I saw this a lot in addition to when I had my own female kitten spayed. But, if it will ease your mind, give them a quick call.

Answer 7

Yes, be concerned....its a complication, after surgery. Not good...
